Sponsored: Huawei is no stranger to producing top-tier wearables for the masses.
The brand’s GT 5 Series distills premium style, accurate health monitoring, and comprehensive sports tracking into one complete smartwatch package.
The next evolution in the popular GT Series, the GT 5 and GT 5 Pro both comprise two versions and plenty of new features, giving users ample choice when it comes to reaching fitness goals, managing wellness aspirations, or styling a smart timepiece.
Here’s everything you need to know about the HUAWEI WATCH GT 5 – including details on the updated design, the all-new HUAWEI TruSense System, and the killer battery life.
Discover the style of the GT 5 Series
The Huawei Watch GT Series style is well known for its geometric case designs and edgy aesthetics, and the iconic line takes another step forward with the latest generation.
The HUAWEI WATCH GT 5 Pro’s two versions and styles – available in either 42mm or 46mm – are the premium picks within the range, with both incorporating a luxurious titanium material.
The bigger 46mm edition is made exclusively of aerospace-grade titanium alloy, while the smaller case size features titanium alloy gold accents that wrap neatly within the ceramic case body. By opting for this material blend, Huawei has been able to reduce the weight of the 42mm model by 14.5% and the thickness by 0.9mm.
It’s an incredibly detailed smartwatch, with the Pro 42mm also offering gold leaf patterned accents and a matching bezel ring. It can even be paired with a light gold ceramic-titanium alloy strap for a maximum premium feel and is the industry’s first ceramic option to feature a quick-release link – eliminating the hassle of disassembling them one by one to find the right fit.
That doesn’t end with the case materials, either. Sapphire watch glass (with Mohs hardness of 8) is consistent throughout the HUAWEI WATCH GT 5 Pro pair, ensuring supreme wear and scratch resistance.
Each is also incredibly adept in the water, boasting a 40-meter, diving-ready waterproofing rating – enough to support the highest level of PADI/SSI/AIDA diving student certification.
For the HUAWEI WATCH GT 5, meanwhile, there are also two different sizes for users to pick between 41mm and 46mm.
While the Pro models are defined by their titanium alloys, Huawei has instead chosen high-quality stainless steel for the HUAWEI WATCH GT 5.
No matter which you pick across the GT 5 Series, you’ll be able to enjoy the innovative EasyFit 3.0 design on the strap interface. This allows for quick and convenient watch band swapping to suit the occasion – whether it’s a workout or a formal setting.
A comprehensive and powerful tracking experience
The design of each HUAWEI WATCH GT 5 Series edition is unparalleled, but another key separator is within the powerful tracking experience.
The launch ushers in a new chapter with the overhauled HUAWEI TruSense System, with multi region optical path design, multi-spacing optical path architecture and ultra-opaque glass processing.
With the HUAWEI TruSense System at its core, the HUAWEI WATCH GT 5 Series is able to offer users a wealth of new tools to manage their health. One example is the Emotional Wellbeing Assistant – an innovation that gives science-based feedback to users based on their RRI and HRV readings.
Ideal for users seeking holistic mind-body wellness, this assistant is able to automatically register the wearer’s emotional state and assist them in long-term mental health management techniques.
Those who require more advanced insights into their physical health are also assisted by the Watch GT Pro’s on-demand ECG readings, while runners, cyclists and golfers relying on top-tier GPS accuracy are also catered for by the Huawei Sunflower positioning system.
All models of the HUAWEI WATCH GT 5 Series feature comprehensive sports functions such as RouteDraw and Running Form Analysis, while the Pro editions feature exclusive workout profiles for free diving, trail running, and golf.
With 100 sports modes to pick from, it all adds up to a comprehensive tracking experience that meets the needs of all kinds of users, whether they’re pairing with an EMUI, iOS, or Android device.
Plus, for the first time on the GT Series, a screenshot function is also accessible through a simultaneous press of the upper and lower buttons.
Serious staying power
Having a refined, versatile design and a powerful tracking system in place are both key to Huawei’s superb wearables, yet the battery life is also essential in ensuring users can enjoy these features for longer.
Able to keep up with the demands of the modern smartwatch user, the 46mm editions of the HUAWEI WATCH GT 5 and GT 5 Pro are each able to last 14 days. It’s a mammoth battery life that provides two whole weeks of convenience for wearers, and the same kind of battery performance is still on offer through the smaller editions.
Both the 42mm HUAWEI WATCH GT 5 Pro and 41mm WATCH GT 5 can remain powered for up to seven days – more than enough for users who wish to enjoy tracking their exercise or styling their watch face for formal occasions with the always-on display.
The HUAWEI WATCH GT 5 and HUAWEI WATCH GT 5 Pro is now available on the Huawei Store. Get Free Huawei FreeBuds 5i during 19 September – 22 October.
