Hey everyone. Once again, we want to thank you for participating in our HONOR CHOICE Watch 2i giveaway, which concluded on July 28. The draw received 34 entries (you can verify yourself by counting the number of comments). And we've attached a screen recording of the live draw for the lucky winner. How it works: We entered the total number of entries "34" into the system, and it randomly generated a number between 1 and 34. As you can see from the recording, the random number is 12. Counting from first to last, the 12th comment is our lucky winner. Congratulations to you, 12🎉 🎉🎉 And as we congratulate 12, it's not the end of the road for those who missed out. Victory delayed is not victory denied. You'll have your lucky moment in our future giveaways soon. We'll be in touch with 12 to arrange how to ship the HONOR CHOICE Watch 2i to your destination. Once again, thank you all for being loyal Techish readers.
