What lug size for replacement straps ? - Huawei Watch 2

I have seen different places say this watch has different size lugs, so I'm wondering which is correct. The official spec site says 20mm: http://consumer.huawei.com/us/wearables/tech-specs/watch-2-us.htm
but a post on reddit said 18mm: https://www.reddit.com/r/hwatch/comments/3jraky/psa_huawei_watch_band_size_explained/
Somewhere else I even saw 22mm. So what lug size do I actually need for this watch ?
Thanks.

I got a 22mm for my watch 2 classic. Fits perfectly.

Thanks, but I don't have a classic.

I too was hoping for this. Amazon reviewers seem to suggest 20mm is the correct size for the HW2. I have not tested - has anyone successfully replaced the band?

In fact, 20 mm is the correct size. I already purchased several bands of that size (from Amazon mostly) and use them on my lovely Huawei.

i can also confirm that the 20mm straps fit

https://forum.xda-developers.com/watch-2/accessories/watch-bands-huawei-watch-2-20mm-t3647604
I too can confirm 20mm.

Seems the sport model is different size to non sport:

I ordered the US version of the official Samsung keyboard case, it should be here this week.
I'll post some pics when I get it.
Just got it in, pretty impressive little guy so far.
Need to get some time in actually using it before I can say to much more about it.
Ill post some pictures of it if there is interest.

I got it on Amazon belive it or not, it was a third party seller, and they only had one listed in stock,so I snatched it up, was the regular retail price of $150.
Here is the link, but its out of stock now.

For anyone who does not mind full retail price ($149), you can purchase it direct from Samsung: http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab-accessories/BKC-1C9USBGSTA
I am holding out for it to show up at more vendors. I suspect it will cost between $99 and $129 very quickly.
About the Samsung Keyboard (gorgeous, btw). Can you type on it and touch/pinch on the screen while it's upright? I mean, would it easily fall back? The rear support looks slippery/flimsy.

That's my only real concern also. The keyboard and case itself looks MUCH nicer than anything else on the market. I don't like cases that cover the sides of the screen (which the Samsung doesn't), and the keyboard looks larger and slimmer than any of the competitor's offerings.
Exactly and the YouTube video is crap, the thing lays flat nearly all the time...not helpful.

I have found it to actually be really quite sturdy, even on very slippery desk surfaces.
The stand itself is a quite ridged, yet has some flexability in that it wont snap under pressure.
The part of it that makes contatact with the desk or whatever is coated in a very grippy rubberized material that grips anything really sturdily.
It does not slipthats for sure.
So yea you can absolutely pinch and zoom while in laptop style angles on a desk, or leather couch.
The whole case is really thin and nicely designed, I also have the Vipertek slim leather case, and this is only very slightly thicker.
It does add quite a bit of weight to it, but its not to bad, and feels very solid.
The keyboard works pretty well, there is some quirks that I assume are related to androids implimentation of BT keyoards and hope to see addresed in ICS, but all in all I find it works pretty well.
When I bought it I was only really planning on using it when I knew I would need it for some reason, and still primarily have my tab in the Vipertek most of the time, but since I put my tab in, it has stayed in, and I don't think I will go back to my old case.
Can you flip the keyboard behind the screen and just use the screen say on your lap?

Nope, unfortunatly you cannot.
It almost goes all the way around but not quite.
That is probably one of the main drawbacks, but I have found it to be less of an issue then I thought it would be.
Thanks for the response. I use it in portrait mode a lot and don't always need the keyboard. I would definitely get this if it wasn't so expensive!

Hi, i just ask about screen protector size in your writen review. I ask because i want to know if a termpered glass from a xiaomi note or other models could fit the entire screen. I dont know the size in MM, so it could be very helpful for many buyers to get this measures.
thank you very much.

My screen measurements including the bezel (or the part where you would put a screen protector or tempered glass over) is almost exactly:

Hope this helps.

I rooted mine using Kingo (nothing wrong until this point), but then I removed some system apps (Gallery/Browser/etc, since I had alternatives to them), and on the next restart, System UI crashed. Factory reset did not solve the problem, hence my need for the ROM. I've checked NeedRom, already, but thank you, anyway.

Aren't they the type where the phone is held by adhesive? Are they any good -can phone be removed and replaced, does adhesive mark the phone? I've gone with the flipcover, not too keen on the window ( no protection ), but as the m52 looks pretty bulky already, it looks about as slim as it's going to get. One of the aliexpress sellers (not sunsky )has the flipcover , and their product code is DG2014, so you might be able to check cases for that, though it doesn't make complete sense as DG2014 isn't as thick as m52

I have the same problem (the band actually separated from the mechanism that attaches the band to the watch, it is not actually separated from the case) and am bummed I did not get the sport version. Since I was using one large and one small strap, I have reversed the ends and can still wear the watch but who knows for how long.
However, I am using the failure as an opportunity to try and fashion a way to adapt the spring loaded mechanism to attach a standard watch band. I am still in the planning stages and will post something if I actually make it work.

you are correct they dont specify size but im assuming they all come in the large size L as that is what I got.

As for the band coming apart, all good here for both me and the wife, still as solid as the day I got em. Must be defective.

Give it time - I have had mine for 2 months. Strap separated 2 days ago. Having a lot of problems getting Samsung CS to replace it under warranty. I would reccomend that you definitely buy the Classic. This watch band problem is not going away. New bands are $49 equal to the price of a Classic when you add the watch cost.

Could the people having strap issues please provide a tad bit more background on their use patterns?
Did the straps fail when removing them from the watch case?
Had the straps previously been removed just to determine which size worked best for you?
Do you wear your straps tight or loose?
I think this will help get down to exactly what the failure point is and if some are going to be more susceptible than others. For instance; I'd ordered a warehouse deal one from Amazon and when it arrived it had the small size strap on it. So I attempted to switch out the band to the larger size but the buckle side band was nearly impossible to remove. Ultimately i got it removed, but the band pulled away from the metal bracket on one side. Eventually i had to return the watch anyway because the previous owner turned on reactivation lock But I can definitely see these bands prone to damage and failure when switching them out.

I like the classic watch but for some us its not an option as we need the 3G, GPS and speaker which does not come with the classic.

I think mine broke because I wear the watch when I sleep and I move around a lot and probably was dragging my arm under my body or something. Anyway, I could see the band separating from the mechanism for a few weeks before it actually came apart. Normally there is no separation between the mechanism and the band but it slowly started showing a gap between the strap and it's mounting point.
I do wear the band tight. Definitely had nothing to do with removing the band from the watch.
I have been traveling all week and have not had time to try my idea for a retrofit to use a standard watch band but I have a strategy. Should cost next to nothing (<$2US) but it may not look great. I will try tomorrow.

Mine did the same thing. I did take the band off and noticed 2 small screws holding the connector part of the band to the rubber band itself. I was able to tighten those screws and the separation issue was fixed. However, I don't think I should have to tighten things that are coming loose on a watch that costs this much

My Guess on this sizing is: When you buy the watch the factory box comes with S & L straps. The additional bands will only be available in one size, Medium which will fit both small and large wrists.
Compare your new red M band with the original S & L bands that came with your watch. I wouldn't doubt they have taken a large band and possibly put more holes in it so it will fit most wrists.

Well the updated adapter to fit the 2018 SM-R325 Gear VR arrived today all smashed to S and I hope it works to begin with (doesn't seem broken) and it barely looks any different than the Note8 USB Type-C adapter. The inner molding is slightly deeper and more rounded but the actual width is about the same. The Type-C connection is a little more angled and there's a N9 stamped on the side of the adapter. If I had my 512gb Ocean Blue Note9 I would test the fit, but Samsung dropped the ball just like they did the padding in the packaging for this adapter.
Thanks for the info Mosely, what number or site did you go to request one?

I simply went on the Samsung+ app and hit the large + at the bottom right and selected Text Chat. Just say you have the SM-R325 Gear VR and you need the new adapter to make your Note9 fit. It's free of charge but I've read some agents asked for your Note9 IMEI to verify you own the phone, they didn't ask me this though.

Really not that difficult, took me a whole 3 minutes on the chat.
Makes sense to me. Money-wise why not just supply the adapter to the people who ask for them, instead of just giving them away to anyone and everyone and having to make more than probably needed.
Thanks for the heads up on this, just called Samsung and got my new adapter being sent out today!

So you're saying the new Note9 adapter you got from Samsung didn't fit your Note9?

I'm saying the new adapter didn't fit the gear vr that Samsung sent me. Even when I cut the adapter to custom fit it to the gear vr the note 9 still didn't fit in the gear vr cause of the size of the phone.

Do you have the SM-R235 or an older model?
Wow I just checked the gear vr and it is a older version sm-r324. Wow off by one number makes a difference with it all said and done. I just made it custom fit the the note 9 and I'm content now
Hey guys, I asked for the adapter on Samsung Members (Samsung+ app version EU) and it was pretty hard to get a assistant who was agree to send it to me (On my gear VR box I don't have the precise model, it just says SM-R324, and not SM-R324-xxxxx)
On my third try I've finally got a guy who understand the situation and ask for IMEI, SN from both note 9 and gear VR and all information for delivery.
Now I just wondering how long it takes for you to get the adapter ?
I'm pretty excited to test my note 9 on my gear VR, and I can't wait for it especially without having any tracking of the adapter.
It has been 6days since I gave my info to the chat assistant, when can I expect the adapter to arrive ?
Edit : 325 and not 324* I mistyped on my post sorry.
Hi guys ! Just an update to let you know that my adapter finally arrived today ! It took 14days for me to get it after I gave my info to Samsung. If anyone is in the same case now, you know you'll have to be patient.

Just for your information:
This adapter is for the SM-R325, NOT for the SM-R324 ! ! !

Hi ! I'm sorry you're right, I just mistyped the number, but my story is the same. They didn't want to send me the adapter because I didn't have a special number following "sm-r325".
Anyway, I finally get it and it works perfectly. Sorry for the inconvenient, I didn't realize I have wrote the wrong reference on my post.

Verizon V50: Does it have the pogo pins for second display?

Looking a the picture of the V50 on verizon's website, it doesn't look like it has the three pins for connecting the external display. Does anyone have a Verzion V50 that can confirm that the pins are there? The V50 seems like a decent phone, but what really sets it apart is going to be that second display option. Just want to make sure it still exists before looking at getting it.
I really didn't think or care about a second display when I purchased it so maybe it works different but definitely no pins on mine.
My 4G signal isn't that impressive either if that might matter to you. I'm still trying to decide whether or not I keep it. I want something larger than my V30 but there isn't anything else out there that interest me.

I believe they're only on the Korean version and the European version.
Edit: Australia version also.
