Watch GT 5 46mm Smartwatch, Up to 14 Days Battery Life, iOS & Android Compatible,Built in Maps, Pro-Level Sports Call&Message Reply,(Black, 46mm)

With advent of smartphones, the function of wristwatches has been mostly relegated to that of a jewellery. Now that we have smartness built into watches, they can additionally compliment the smartness of the phones and not try to duplicate them for phones are always handy. I cannot understand why anybody needs to duplicate any functionality that is available on a much bigger screen. The complimentary functionalities are mostly health and fitness related as the smartwatch is more in contact with our body. Keeping these factors in mind, my criteria to buy a smartwatch are looks, fitness/health functions and long battery life. Huawei GT series watches perfectly fit all these 3 criteria for me. And that’s the reason why I have continued with Huawei, upgrading from GT2 to GT5. Looks wise, it is hands down far superior to other smartwatches. The metallic octagonal design, great material and built quality with attention to finer details, it has a very premium look. As compared, the ugly looking Samsung watch or toy Apple watch are nowhere near. Huawei claims a battery life of 14 days with optimal usage. And I have no reason to believe that such long battery life can last for years as my 4-year-old GT2 still gives me 10-12 days of life. In 4 days since I have started using this GT5 watch, the battery has gone down by only 30%. Coming to fitness tracking, I can see that the sensors and software both have major improvement since GT2. GT2 GPS has mostly worked fine for my running distances except for the nearby park track which has dense coverage of trees. On days, it goes off by more 10%. But GT5, in my 3-4 runs so far in this track, has accurately predicted the distance within few meters for a 3K. (See attached screenshot comparison). It also provides some additional information like ground contact time, vertical oscillation, and left/right balance during running. The UI within the watch has also improved a lot to provide more analysis which earlier was only available in the Health app on my phone. The heart-rate monitoring, stress monitoring, SPO2 monitoring and sleep tracking also have improved (though GT2 too was doing an adequate job on these). ECG and blood-pressure are still not available in the GT5 version. It has a skin temperature sensor as well. Among other features, the UI is much more vibrant and fluidic. There are many more watch faces available, including some dynamic ones. The call and message functionalities appear to be similar to that of GT2. You can receive calls (connected to phone through Bluetooth) and probably can make calls from a limited list (though I have never felt the need to make a call from the watch in 4 years). Messages (whatsapp, FB messenger, SMS) can be viewed but photos and videos do not load. There is probably new feature to make some standard replies but I have not explored. It has some storage available to copy songs into the watch and can connect to Bluetooth headphones. On the negative side, due to restrictions on Huawei, few functionalities are limited. You need to download the Health app that is required to connect the watch to your smartphone from Huawei site. It is not available in Google Playstore. Petal maps and payment app are blocked. ECG functionality that, is available with GT5 Pro, is also blocked in India. Overall if you are look for a smartwatch that looks like a watch, does a good job tracking your fitness and does not require charging every evening, then there is simply no other option available at this price range. But if you want to duplicate smartphone features like mindless reel scrolling etc, then this is not for you. As for upgradation from previous Huawei GT watches, those who already have GT3/GT4 watches and are happy with sensor outputs, there is hardly any major addition in functionality to go for the upgrade. If you have a GT2, you will notice some changes and hence may consider going for it.

Weight, display, battery, bluetooth calling, notifications, etc are as good as advertized. Five stars for doing well what it's supposed to do. - Comfortable to be worn whole day. Strap has holes close enough for little adjustments to suit your wrist - Petal Maps does not work in India so offline maps on the watch do not work. A paid app (Navigation [Huaweir Watches]) for 200 rs is available to show google maps navigation notifications on the watch. Excercise route can be viewed on Google Map in the Huawei Health app but not on the watch. - Huawei Health app is not available on Play Store and has to be downloaded separately. It does not integrate with Google Fit or other apps and Android Health Connect does not recognize Huawei Health. - Huawei Health app keeps measuring steps while driving. Turning off "Physical Activity" permission to the app fixes the problem. - When in workout mode, other apps or home screen cannot be accessed. If you have to open some other screen, you have to stop the workout. - Training Load feature is useful which gives a score for how much you excercised in a week, similar to PAI on Amazfit or Heart Points on Google Fit. I personally like Training Load better than the two. - GPS is good enough, don't expect accuracy within 4-5 feet. Maybe it's the same for all watches, I don't know.

AOD is excellent.. battery life is excellent Overall it beats the competition to dust 😄 Absolute must buy!

Watch is nice but the heading is misleading also some of its features wont work so spending above 10k on this isnt worth you can get amazefit or Garmin in same price.

amazing watch finally got it. Made Apr-26. highly durable with 10+ days battery display top notch value for money some google ecosystem limitations but its okay

Wath is rich in Quality, Outlook, Battery life, Touch quality. This watch does not support NFC payment in another country rather than China. Apartment from that this is really awesome in every aspect that we search in a watch.

Got my watch gt5 today, unable to start it as app is not available on Google play store. Kindly suggest suitable way to download the app from reliable store or how to do it?

A quick review. I have the Amazfit balance. While, it has more features, like voice typing, callling etc through zepp flow, it let's you down in therms of accuracy and display quality. That's where the GT 5 is far superior. Crisp display, extremely accurate a great UI, super data for fitness lovers. They do have a physical keyboard. So you can type in msg. I thought I'd be able to send a voice msg by pressing the mic icon. But it says, that's open only to huawei phones. That is the only disappointment. Hope they can fix this for Indian users. Good watch faces and customizable. All in all a fitness delight

Estou usando o Huawei Watch GT 5 há 2 dias e, até agora, estou bastante satisfeito. Testei o relógio durante atividades físicas e também no monitoramento do sono, e em ambos os casos o desempenho foi excelente. Os sensores são precisos, os dados são bem apresentados no app Huawei Health e a bateria está durando muito bem. Ainda não testei o desempenho dele na corrida, mas pelo que já observei nos treinos e medições de saúde, a expectativa é boa. Mesmo usando com um iPhone — que tem algumas limitações de integração — considero que vale muito a pena pelo conjunto que entrega: design elegante, tela nítida, excelente bateria e sensores de alta qualidade, tudo por um preço justo. Recomendo especialmente para quem busca foco em saúde, exercícios e não quer depender de carregar o relógio todos os dias.

Harmony OS is so fluid on this watch, works every well with my Mate60 Pro which is also running Harmony OS. The experience is flawless. Bought it as an upgrade to the GT 2 Watch!

Huawei me gusta mucho desde siempre. Todo fue maravilloso hasta que se pelearon con EUA. Mi celular me impedia funciones muy específicas como cambiar de canciones en YTmusic con el teléfono bloqueado. Este reloj lo permite. La sincronización con la aplicación de salud resulta de mucha utilidad desde la hora de dormir hasta el ejercicio y la organización de nuestras agendas. Suena el despertador en tu muñeca y aunque también suena en el teléfono, desde la muñeca se puede detener. Si duras mucho sentado te manda a estirarte y hasta te avisa cuando no estás en una situación muy cómoda. También me ayuda a aprovechar mis momentos de mejor ánimo o tomar acciones cuando no la estou pasabdo del todo bien. Aunque la asistente Celia del reloj esta un poco limitada, si funciona para resolver asuntos sencillos como poner cronómetros o temporizadores que resultan muy útiles a la hora de por ejemplo cocinar/estudiar/hacer deporte. La pantalla también es de gran calidad, a pesar del uso rudo al que lo someto aún está intacta. Iba a comprar un protector para el reloj pero no ha hecho falta en absoluto. Gran aparato, muy bonito y muy cómodo extremadamente útil.
