HUAWEI WATCH GT 2 Pro Smartwatch : After many many hours of research, I chose this watch and am happy I did. (See update at bottom)

From the minute i recieved this watch it felt like a high quality product. Set into a stylish box which contained the watch, a warranty, quick start instruction manual, a spare strap and a magnetic charching cable for a usb plug, (which is not included). I took about 10 minutes to fully charge after unpacking and then it was ready to go. You have to operate huawei operating app and huawei health app before you can start using the watch. There are a whole range of health , workout and other options to this great device. It is constantly tacking your heart rate , sleep patterns and overall activity records. It has a full range of workout functions that range from indoor and outdoor run, swim ,cycle to hiking ,swimming,triathlon,rowing and so on. This really is a quality peice of tech which can recieve and make calls , play music tell you the weather and a whole host of other useful functions. I really rate this watch and at the price it is at the moment , it is an absolute bargain.

This watch is sleek and professional, (bought with brown leather strap) the light/face stays on all the time, looks fantastic, doesnt bombard me with tech but tracks my heart/sleep and lasts a week between charges. I love how comfortable it is, the fact it stays on 24/7 and is so descrete. If you don’t want apps and loads of rubbish and just want a beautiful watch which looks great with a suit/smart attire but is tracking your health and can alert you of important stuff from your phone go for this – you can also snap on the black watch strap and take it on a run, use a different face and make it more of a gym watch. Bad bits are there isn’t many watch faces, it’s hard to customise aa the options aren’t there and you can’t reply to messages on the watch – i wanted something sleek and simple with a bit of health and tech, very pleased with this watch. It appears bigger on photos than it is is real life, i’m 6ft av build and its a great fit.

I lost many hours researching before choosing my first fitness/smartwatch. That was very hard work- watching endless youtube video reviews and reading many customer comments on amazon. I don’t think there is a perfect fitness/smartwatch. Battery life, hr accuracy, app/website support, ability to store music on the watch. Are just a few of the areas that cause me a lot of difficulty in making a decision. I wish i could have just gone into several shops to see and physically handle these watches but that did not seem possible. Anyway, i was looking for a watch to help me become more aware of my fitness overall and to help me achieve a personal goal of successfully completing a marathon. My first attempt at a marathon was the munich marathon oct 2019. I trained for 14 weeks, mainly using the nike + app. Everything seemed to be going well, but in the few weeks before, what is known as ‘the tapering period’.

I have used this watch for a month now and i’m very impressed. Battery life is brilliant, you could easily get a week or more depending on how you use it. This watch is not a smartphone on your wrist.You can cancel calls but cannot answer them. You can read notifications from any apps you choose to connect to the watch and you can read messages and emails, however, you cannot reply. Personally i like it this way, i do not want to talk to a watch and i do not want to type texts on a watch. There is no web browsing on this watch either, which i am also not bothered about. Smart watches that have all of these functions do not have as good battery life as this watch.I have used it in pools and showers with no issues and it still works perfectly in these environments.

I really liked the huawei watch gt but it definitely lacked some desirable features. This new version now includes some of these features, whilst retaining all the good points of the former version. It adds a microphone and speaker, which enable making and taking phone calls from the watch, music controls for phone or watch (you can upload music to the watch), a stress tester, a sleeker design and there are a few more watch faces and exercise options such as hiking. It retains and may even improve on the stupendous battery life of two weeks. The exercise tracking is extremely good still with incredibly fast lock onto gps. Please note that this watch does not attempt to replace your phone so there is no app store and very little integration with third party apps. Also you cannot respond to notifications. However, this all has the advantage of a minimalist simple interface which is ideally suited to a watch sized screen and that superb battery life. I always have my phone with me so appreciate the way this watch complements but does not intend to replace your phone. Overall excellent value for money at £200 and highly recommended.

I have a samsung android phone. Read loads of reviews of the app software and thought i’d made a mistake in ordering one of these as everyone seemed to have problems with the watch. The app on play store is not the correct version to enable you to connect to your watch. You must go to the huwaei main website and install the app gallery from there. Your phone won’t like it so you have to allow it to be downloaded past your security. Then install the health app and mobile services app. You can uninstall the app gallery after this if you wish. You then need to register for an account (free) to be able to run your health app. Setting the phone up is easy when you get it. Lovely watch faces with lots more to install from the app.

* update *for those using this watch on an android device the process to get it working is quite frustrating. So you download huawei health app. Fails to load as it needs huawei mobile services app (don’t quite understand why) to run the health app. So obviously the google play app is out of date. Firstly, search an install the huawei app gallery and download it directly from their website. Once installed, download the mobile services app and update within the app (should be an option at the bottom). Install huawei health app from huawei app gallery. Once these steps are complete it should work. Neither apps worked on goggle store or when i tried downloading them directly. They only worked via the huawei app gallery.
