As far as looks go, the Huawei Watch GT incorporates touches of modern style into a timeless watch design. As far as operation goes, it's as smart and as innovative as any watch on the market. Huawei call it their finest waterproof watch to date, and here's why!
The Huawei Watch GT catches the eye with a classic round dial with ceramic bezel, stainless steel shell and DLC coating. While slim and sleek, the design is robust and boasts 50 metre waterproof construction to emphasise how durable it is.
The Huawei Watch GT outstrips many of its rivals in the easy-to-read stakes thanks to a 1.39-inch AMOLED screen with 454 x 454 pixels resolution at 326ppi pixel density. All those numbers add up to a crystal-clear display.
The GT gives you real time heart rate monitoring through a self-learning algorithm and some of the most innovative sensors on the market.
Help might be at hand as HUAWEI TruSleep 2.0 identifies common sleep related issues. Better still, it gives you more than 200 potential solutions.
The specs on the Watch GT include GPS/GLONASS/GALILEO, Bluetooth, accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer sensors, optical heart rate sensor, ambient light sensor, barometer sensor, loudspeaker, and, as you'd expect in this day and age, multiple sports modes. You can also see notifications including messages, phone calls, alarms, plus you can set reminders.
The Huawei Watch GT integrates the first double chipset architecture and this gives you two weeks of life from the super-efficient 420mAh battery. The device also features 128MB internal storage and 16MB RAM for excellent, speedy performance.
Manufacturer: Huawei
Stylish and long-lasting, the Watch GT nearly has it all, but absent music features leave us baffled.
Excellent battery life; Stylish; wearable design; Strong fitness tracking features; Works with Android and iOS
Not available in the U.S; Software needs refinement; No music streaming or Bluetooth headphone connection
In previous years the Huawei Watch has been home to several Android Wear smartwatch releases. With the Watch GT, however, the Chinese giant has produced a watch that runs its own operating system – similar in approach to the Samsung Gear and Apple Watch range.
Long battery life; Great screen; Information is well organised; Great all-round performance
Lacking in features; Screen doesn't have always-on mode; Low refresh rate makes animations stutter; Needs more apps and third-party support
This is a good looking smart watch. The features are quite good. It does inform you of calls and text, and has plenty of fitness features. Overall i am very happy with my purchase.
Pre-ordered this too replace my bip watch which has the best battery life on the market. Been using the GT for a week now and battery is still on 50%. Very happy with it. It has a very bright clear screen and constant heart tracking.
Whenever a company launches a new smartphone, it invariably launches something else to go along with it. Apple started the "one more thing", and manufacturers like Samsung, LG and even Huawei have followed suit.
Huawei has decided to change things up with its 3rd iteration in their premium smartwatch lineup this time calling it the Watch GT. It looks to be more ideal for the adventurer but also the person that wants to keep track of their body ranging from their heart rate to their sleep patterns.
In our Huawei Watch GT Review, we explore the pros and cons of buying a wearable device in a post-WearOS market. It's time to move beyond the basics in the smartwatch world – or at least that's what the Huawei Watch GT believes.
Industrial design on-point; No WearOS; Relatively affordable; Smartwatch battery life basically unmatched
No tap-to-pay services; No WearOS; No 3rd-party app access
The Huawei Watch GT has incredible battery life, providing the standard other smartwatches should aspire to. Yes, it comes with a few caveats, but if all you want from a smartwatch is an advanced fitness tracker with basic notifications and a battery that lasts for weeks instead of hours, the Watch...
Up to one-month battery life Excellent screen Classic styling UI is easy to use Accurate fitness tracking Sleep monitoring is great
Laggy and janky UI Limited watch face options Some notification problems Missing advanced features Can't add more apps
Even when I just first started using the Watch GT, it was already clear to me what conclusion I would reach: the watch is pleasant to wear and doesn't have many functions, but it has an extremely strong battery that it almost doesn't matter to me how little the watch can do.
Extremely long battery life; Comfortable to wear; Easy to use
Not many features on Lite OS; Jerky performance; Notifications are often useless
Huawei is on to something with LiteOS. While I lament its limited nature in this review, I do so only because the hardware on which it runs isn't a good match for the operating system.
Striking AMOLED display; Lots of sensors including a barometer; GPS; GLONASS; and GALILEO; Good battery life; Tracks advanced metrics like Training Effect and recovery time; Solid sleep tracking; Accurate heart-rate monitor and GPS
Generic design; Limited number of watch faces and apps; No NFC; no onboard storage for music; No onboard Wi-Fi connectivity; No access to Google Play Store; Huawei Health app is disorganized and has a confusing layout; Too expensive for what it is
