Huawei Watch GT2 hands-on review: The software holds it back

Huawei's latest smartwatch is the Watch GT2, and it has been treated to an upmarket redesign and a host of new features, which make it more of an all-rounder than its predecessor. However, first impressions of the software are not as good, and there's...

Classy design ; Attractive screen ; Two body sizes ; Lightweight and comfortable ; Internal storage for music

Huawei Watch GT 2

The Huawei Watch GT 2 is attractive, easy to use, and has impressive battery life, but it lacks third-party app support and other common features found on most smartwatches.

Stylish. Tracks fitness and sleep. Long battery life. Onboard music storage.

Lacks third-party app support. No GPS or NFC.

While stylish, the Huawei Watch GT 2's basic features and lack of support for third-party apps don't seem worth the asking price, especially when you can get the Fitbit Versa 2 and the Apple Watch Series 3 for less (or spend more on the Apple Watch...

Huawei Watch GT 2 Review: Similar experience, bigger battery

The Huawei Watch GT 2 is a smartwatch that runs the company's own mobile operating system Lite OS. It does not run Google's Wear OS, and it's not exactly like what Samsung has with their smartwatches running Tizen. This watch looks a lot like most...

Industrial design remains decent (vs Watch GT 1) ; No WearOS ; Relatively affordable ; Smartwatch battery life matched only by Watch GT 1 ; 5ATM water-resistant

No tap-to-pay services ; No WearOS ; No 3rd-party app access ; Not available in USA

Huawei Watch GT 2 46mm review: A fitness smartwatch with limited customization

Our Huawei Watch GT 2 review looks at a fitness smartwatch recently released in Canada that ticks all the boxes, but has limited customization.

Fitness-centric design ; Comfortable to wear ; Quite a few specific fitness type tracking available ; Displays heart rate, SpO2, and stress levels on watch ; Displays weather on watch ; Can store and play music on the watch ; GPS-enabled ; Professional...

No extra apps can be installed ; Limited watch faces ; Screen is bright (at night) even with ambient mode on ; Can't make calls or reply to texts from the watch ; Can't swipe away a single notification (can only clear all)

Huawei Watch GT 2 review: Great hardware, limited software

Huawei's Watch GT was known for its long battery life and great design, but also for its laggy and limited interface. The Watch GT 2 is a definite step in the right direction, but still lacks in several important areas.

Great battery life ; Looks gorgeous ; Sharp AMOLED display ; Much improved performance over last year ; Affordable

Limited third-party app support with Huawei Health ; Large footprint on wrist ; No Qi charging ; No NFC outside of China ; Limited software functionality ; Erratic heart rate sensor

The Watch GT 2 is currently available in the market in two dial variants, 42mm and 46mm. Both are priced quite competitively for a smartwatch which looks premium and comes with 2-week battery life.

Great battery ; Slick design ; Well Built

Only basic features ; No Wear OS

GPS sometimes inaccurate ; Unnecessary notifications ; No Always-on mode

With its new Watch GT 2, Huawei focuses on sporting features and, once again, excellent battery life. This is one of the most important aspects when you decide to buy a smartwatch and the second generation is doing a good job in this regard. While the...
