Huawei Watch GT 2 review

The Huawei Watch GT 2 aims to build upon the Watch GT, with excellent battery life and stellar fitness tracking.

Great battery life Attractive design Excellent fitness tracking

No third-party apps No NFC support Can't customize it much

The Huawei Watch GT 2 has excellent battery life coupled with health and wellness tracking features, but the software needs improvements in order to stand out from the competition.

Hands on: Huawei Watch GT 2 review

After a few years experimenting with Android Wear (now renamed Wear OS), Huawei has switched to its own software for its smartwatches, and that remains the case for the Huawei Watch GT 2. The new smartwatch from the brand builds on the original Watch...

More premium design Attractive display

Limited functionality Proprietary charger

The Huawei Watch GT 2 combines a premium-feeling design with the long-lasting battery benefits of the original device. It doesn't offer as much functionality as some other smartwatches, but that won't be a deal-breaker for many of those who'll like the...

Huawei Watch GT 2 review: Simplistic smartwatch, super fitness watch

The second-generation model adds an always-on display (sort of) and new design, available in 42mm or 46mm size options. Stylish and great for fitness.

Really long battery life ; Stylish good-looking design ; Lots of health tracking data ; Vibrant display ; Two size options

Watch faces aren't customisable enough ; Refresh rate is slow and stutters ; Always-on screen only has two styles

Huawei's Watch GT has built a reputation for crazy-long battery life and great health tracking data, with the GT 2 continuing that ethos, adding a couple of new features like the always-on lock screen and loudspeaker. That makes it a great fitness...

Huawei Watch GT 2 42mm

The 42mm Watch GT 2 isn't simply a smaller version of the 46mm. It's surprisingly different. Here's our review.

Huawei Watch GT 2 review

A handsome, glorified fitness tracker

Stunning design ; Impressive battery life ; Decent value

Limited third-party support ; No app store ; No notification interaction

The best looking fitness tracker money can buy, but it’s not a smartwatch

Huawei Watch GT 2 Review: Great Watch Made Even Better - UNBOX PH

We review the Huawei Watch GT2! We really liked Huawei's first Watch GT. Armed with a bright screen, tons of features and an almost unheard of 2-week battery life, it was a great all-around smartwatch despite its limitations. The second-generation...

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...

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...
