The First Impressions of Huawei Watch GT5
Right out of the box, apart from the Watch GD5, we also get a wireless charger inside the box. Meanwhile, the style of this Huawei GT5 watch makes you want to wear it immediately. This smartwatch is available in three colors. A material called woven is used in Blue. That is, we can see a nylon pattern on the rubber strap itself. It feels like a very beautiful strap to me.
Apart from this, we can see the leather material in brown color as well as the rubber strap in black. So, this Huawei watch gt5 is available in three stylish colors. Anyway, if you ask how we can connect this watch as a smartphone, we just need to open it and scan the QR code that we can see here. Or, let’s see an application called Huawei health.
For example, if we have iOS, we have it available in our app store itself. For Android users, it is currently not available on the Play Store. Instead, if you download the application of this smartwatch through any browser, we can easily connect this smart watch as our smart phone for the first time Huawei watch users. Those who are already familiar with this, proceed to the next step.
Here in the Devices menu, you will find an option called Add Device. Press it and you will see the name of Huawei Watch GT5. When you press it and connect, a notification will appear on the watch. Just accept it as a pair.
Similarly, if we just accept all the things that come with a smartwatch and smartphone, we can pair this watch with our smart phone within seconds. We can do many things through this Huawei health app. For example, if we want to change the watch faces, we can download and install thousands of free and paid watch faces and stuff from here. Also, we can enable and disable many things from it. For example, what notifications are required? can be selected.
Likewise, there is a Find Device option. Health monitoring, monitoring options, sleep, breathing awareness, as well as pulse wave arrhythmia analysis and many other health related things can be monitored from this. Also, we can do firmware updates and stuff through this app.
Looking at the design and build quality, this watch case as well as the bezels are made of stainless steel material. In blue color, as well as in brown color, we can see the same stainless steel colors on the case and bezels. But the black features a sleek, matte finish that enhances its modern aesthetic, as well as the black bezels with a slightly matte finish.
Personally, I prefer the blue strap, but when it comes to the case, I prefer this black case. Anyway, which one you feel is your favorite, please leave a comment. Also, we can remove and reinsert the strap very easily. The weight of the watch without the strap is 48 g. Even GD’s strap is very easy to use. Also, this watch comes in 46 mm.
Anyway, if we look at other things, ceramic material is used at the back. It supports wireless charging. There is a rotatable crown menu button. It also has a function key. It has more than a hundred exercise modes. As mentioned in the beginning, in terms of design and build quality, this watch comes in a very stylish and durable design. It is a 5 ATM water resistant rater watch which is ideal for underwater use.
While talking about the design of the watch, we left out the case that impressed us the most. Given the cutting edge design, it gives a premium look with added elegance. Also the Bezel is given in three tone color which gives it a more premium look.
You can easily select recent apps and other options by double-clicking the menu button. Similarly, if you press the menu button and the function key at the same time, you can take a screenshot, which will also go to the phone’s gallery. It allows you to take a screenshot of any page of the watch, such as fitness information. 1.43-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 466 x 466 pixels. Aluminum silicate glass is used for its protection.
With a maximum brightness of 1200 nits, the watch’s display is clearly visible in any light. So even if you go outside, no matter how bright the situation is, its display is very clear. So in terms of display, I feel it’s a super display, very clear and precise. When it comes to battery life, it is known that the GT series watches offer longer battery life.
In my own experience, a GT Watch that has been in use for three years still has up to 14 days of charge. Similarly, the GT5 Watch is said to have a battery life of up to 14 days. It can last up to 9 days with heavy usage and up to 5 days with always on display. It has a water resistance rating of 5 ATM so it can be used underwater.
The rear body of the GT5 watch is made of plastic, while the GT5 profile is made of ceramic. The GT5 watch has a wireless charging system. Charging can be done via the wireless charger that comes with the watch, as well as via a wireless charging power bank or any smartphone that supports reverse wireless charging. Bluetooth calling support is available. You can save up to ten contacts as favorites and call those ten contacts right from the watch.
In addition, there are many features found in most smart watches, including heart rate monitoring, sleep monitoring, stress monitoring, in this Huawei Watch GT 5. It is noteworthy that there is pulse wave arrhythmia analysis and body temperature sensor in this watch.
If you are a WhatsApp user, you can now send messages by typing through the keyboard, while you could only send standby messages so far. This is the first wireless feature in the Huawei Watch GT series. With this, you can type and send messages without the need to pick up a smartphone and send a message. Not only that, this watch records your emotions whether you are normal, angry or happy.
It’s amazing how Panda’s behavior changes depending on the mode you’re in. Overall, most aspects of this watch look positive. The design is definitely something to mention. Display quality, battery life, most features, durability overall I consider it one of the best watches available in the market.
Let me know if you will buy the watch.
