Abstract: We went to review the Huawei Watch GT but was delayed for a bit as the Galaxy S10 & G8 came into play and pushed this back a bit. But during that time our current president declared war on the company and made selling their products a lot harder. That did...

Exceptional battery life,
Not the easiest to use, limited smart functions, expensive
On the whole, we weren't very impressed with Huawei's shift from Wear OS to Lite OS, finding the GT Classic to be disappointingly sparse in terms of features, though it is quite sleek and stylish...
No third-party apps, Big for small wrists, Lacks NFC and Wi-Fi
Huawei's Watch GT is a decent fitness tracker disguised as a smartwatch. While its size isn't suitable for all wrists, its GPS, durability, and long battery life make it a good companion for outdoor workouts...

Abstract: If you strip the smartwatch back to its most basic functions in pursuit of an exceptional battery life what might that look like? For some, it will look like a clunky fitness tracker that doesn't cut the mustard, but for others it will look like a perfect...
Good looks with a solid construction + 5ATM water resistance, Near-two-week battery life, Simple, effective OS makes tracking and reviewing info quick and easy, Straight-forward companion app offers plenty of sleep insight and exercise statistics,
Consistently stuttery animations navigating through OS, No music storage or playback control, Very limited third-party app support
The Huawei Watch GT knows what it is and knows what it isn't and does well not to step outside of itself. Focusing on fitness first, Huawei's decision to use its own proprietary OS allows the Watch GT to do right by fitness fans with streamlined, yet comp...

Huawei set out to make a fitness tracker that looked like a smartwatch with the Watch GT. What it did instead was create a beautiful smartwatch with a gimped operating system. You can forgive people for picking up the watch and wondering why the software...

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
There's little to dislike about this smartwatch. It's metal, has a top-notch display, does the basics. It's by no means the most powerful or feature-full smartwatch, but it's also one of the least expensive right out the gate. At approximately $200, the H...
Lovely high quality design, Bright and clear display, Lightweight and comfortable for 24/7 wear, Long battery life, Detailed sleep and heart rate data, GPS for run tracking, Decent price for activity capability
No ecosystem to challenge friends and family
Modern smartwatches typically last two days while activity bands tend to last a week, or more. The Huawei Watch GT two week estimate is what I have seen over the last several weeks with the GPS burn rate equaling the estimated 20+ hours in GPS mode. It's...

Abstract: The Huawei Watch GT was originally launched in 2018, but the US didn't immediately get access to Huawei's fitness tracking smartwatch hybrid. That changed briefly before Samsung announced their Galaxy S10 lineup, and as of February 2019, you can simply o...
I feel like when it comes to smartphones, there's not much to be decided. For the most part, we want a great camera, a vibrant display, fast performance, and at the least a decent battery life. I think that smartwatches are a lot more personal, and what's...
