One of the best smartwatches you can buy right now is the HONOR MagicWatch 2, a device which is great for amateur fitness buffs with its range of sports tracking modes, and HONOR has announced that list of activities tracked is about to get much, much bigger.
Upon release, the HONOR MagicWatch 2 tracked 15 different types of workout including outdoor running, indoor running and pool swimming, but the company has announced that list is gaining another 85 entries to bring the total number of activities tracked to 100.

These new activities are broken down into six groups - 'extreme', 'leisure', 'fitness', 'aquatics', 'ball games' and 'winter sports', and while we don't know the whole list of sports just yet, some examples include rock climbing, ballet, boxing, parkour and street dancing.

HONOR calls these 'customized workout modes', and it's not clear what the company means by this, but we'd guess it means you can choose what factors the watch tracks like heart rate, calories burned or reps.

The new update for the HONOR MagicWatch 2 is rolling out now, and can be downloaded via the Huawei Health app.
