According to our smartwatch expert
The integrated heart rate sensor measures your heart rate via your wrist.
The smartwatch features integrated music controls that lets you simply play back music or adjust the volume.
You can easily answer or end calls via your smartwatch.
This smartwatch doesn't have a GPS sensor, which means the watch can't track your location and route.
This smartwatch can't make phone calls without being connected to a phone.
Almost nothing is timeless. Even so, the Huawei Watch comes awfully close to being timeless. But what did you expect with 40 different different watch faces? You can choose a black display with golden details, for example. Or you can steal the spotlight with a clear blue screen. The watch offers access to all Android Wear functionalities, such as incoming calls, messages, and emails. There's plenty to like for the sporty user as well, such as an integrated heart rate sensor. The motion sensor measures you while you run, cycle, or sleep. During a hike at elevated heights, the barometer measures the air pressure and elevation. You can check Huawei's health platform whether you've made any progress recently. Disappointed by your results? Simply change the screen. Another round, another display.
I received this smartwatch as a gift (otherwise I would have bought it myself) and have had it for a little over a week now.
The packaging is and feels premium and when I opened the box I was blown away by the design. In my opinion, this is the most beautiful smartwatch on the market right now. In addition to a great design, it has a completely round OLED screen and a surprisingly good battery. I usually have something like 40% left at the end of the day, even after a day of actively messing around with watchfaces or other Android Wear apps.
After finding the right applications for different watchfaces (Pujie Black, Facer, Watchmaker) you have access to what I feel is an infinite number of different existing designs on websites such as facerepo.com and you can also completely customize these to your own taste. To adjust.
My only downside to the Huawei watch is that; when your wrist is in a certain position that the strap can just pop loose. This has happened to me 3 times in 1 week and this is also quite frightening because if you are not fast enough it slides off your wrist so easily and can fall on pavement tiles and damage it badly!
In addition, you notice that Android Wear is not quite "mature" yet, the OS has already crashed 1 time in the week that I have it and I still miss the possibility to adjust the interface "Out of the Box" properly and extensively to my own wishes, which is already possible with, for example, the home screen of Android. There are many 3rd party apps in the Google Play Store that do give you the option to get your own ideal interface and toggles on your wrist, but they do not all fit together and the design of these apps is often not the same. nice to combine with each other.
As a conclusion, I can only give points to Huawei for making a watch that not only looks beautiful but is also well constructed. I know that Android Wear is still being worked on on a daily basis and that updates are regularly made available in which I expect these minor issues to be incorporated.

Highly recommended if you don't like iWatch, especially value for money. Wears nice and easy, maybe a little on the thick side but it certainly doesn't bother me. Works perfectly with my iPhone.

I really wanted a smartwatch, but didn't want a futuristic clock on my wrist. The appearance of the Huawei Watch was therefore exactly what I was looking for. The pictures on the site already made me drool, and I really had to grab a cloth when I actually had it in my hands. Wow, how beautiful! The finish of the Huawei Watch is fantastic, and that's exactly what you can expect from the, quite spicy, price tag.
Being able to endlessly customize your 'Watchface' (the actual clock) is good for days of fun. Although Android Wear is not yet mature enough in my opinion (for example, I think Spotify works a bit 'meh' on my Watch), it also meets the requirements perfectly; all notifications arrive on your Watch and depending on the origin of the notification you can reply via your watch (Whatsapp has quick replies, for example, or the ability to send a voice message back), or open the app on your phone.
The battery life of the Watch is fine in my opinion; it lasts more than a day, depending on the use of course. For me this is more than enough; the Watch is simply on the charger in the evening (this ensures that your Watch goes silent, which is handy for a night's sleep). A disadvantage of the charger is that you will have to take it with you when you go away for a weekend.
All in all, this Huawei Watch is definitely worth the purchase in my opinion. And my phone? It stays in my pocket a lot longer!
