I´m a samsung fanboy ever since. But practicality and battery life? GT4 is the way. Saved money and it does the job. Happy with both brands but had to go with the GT4. Thanks for the review Chigz.
Different experience between my Huawei smart sport watch to my wife's Galaxy watch. She has to charge every single day. Lol. Then she betrayed Samsung for Huawei as well. 😂😂😂
Huawei Watch GT4 all the way. Despite a US led sabotage campaign because the most powerful country on earth is so fearful of a single private Chinese tech company, Huawei products are still amazing quality and made to last. I have a 2.5 year old GT2 Pro which I wear daily and it hardly has a scratch on the face or body. The software is great and it does all I need it to do. Battery lasts about 11 days with my usage.
The US government attack on Huawei is basically an attack on the Chinese economy. Their aim is to sabotage chinas economy so the US remains number 1. I’m going to buy the GT4. I love the expensive watch body look.
It doesn't boil down to geopolitical, but if they are not telling you the ram and storage. 4 GBs is nothing. 16 is barely cutting it for me since I like to switch up and customize my watch faces. Then they sure as hell are not telling you the SARs that radiation absorption rating.
I have the GT2 Pro, its software is very bad. It hurts me to see that the Xiaomi band 6 has better usage than it. The band 6 can give me the weather without needing to track my location. It has much smoother UI. I like its timer a lot more because it is smart enough to remember your last timer's duration. And you can easily adjust the duration on the timer by holding the up or down arrows (instead of scrolling endlessly to 25 minutes every fucking time). It's vibrations are much more stronger, you can also program different vibrations for different kind of notifications (alarm/messages/calls/etc) so you can easily tell what you received without looking. It syncs the notifications with your phone. It automatically dismisses the notification if you receive one and then open it on your phone. With the GT2 Pro I have to dismiss it manually every time. It can function as a shutter so you can take group photos. I could go on but these are the ones I could quickly think of as I was typing. EDIT: I just found out that I have a band 5, not even the 6..
I’ve got a HUAWEI GT2, and I can tell you that I love this watch. Now.. I wouldn’t call it a smartwatch, the same way a Samsung or an Apple Watch are, so I don’t find the comparison fair or “equal”, but the fact that HUAWEI watches offer almost 2 weeks of battery life is something that I cannot overlook. I’ve had my GT2 for nearly 4 years and still I forget the last time I charged it! incredible battery life and except for the always on display, everything else is turned on.
To be fair, 2 years is a long time ago. The GT3 Pro or GT4 are full blown smartwatches, the former has better features and is cheaper than then Watch 6 reviewed here which is why I went with Huawei. The battery life is a no brainer for me, no point in having it for health and fitness tracking if I need to charge it every second day. My guess is that things will only get better with Huawei wearables as they are not on Harmony and will only get more optimized around their domestic chipsets going forward.
@@crnija7774 come on! It doesn’t just have a battery! It has every sports functions you can think of and various health monitoring apps. Which are quite accurate.
I have ordered a GT4. The only downside is NFC payments but I would rather save the £90 and not have to worry about charging it than taking my mobile or card out to make a payment.
I have had both Samsung and Huawei watches in the past. I would say the Samsung is much better as a phone companion or phone extension. However, the Huawei is a much better device for health and fitness.
I used the Samsung Watch 6 Classic and I also used the Huawei Watch GT4, and I can say with all honesty that Huawei is the best in all aspects. The battery is enough for you to last two weeks.

for Huawei vs Samsung Galaxy comparison , you should refer to Huawei watch4 or GT Pro series for comparisons ( thats Huawei's models with premium spec of Sapphire , ECG ... to bench Galaxy ) . but for all Android watches (except oppo watch4) and Apple watches , its quite annoying and need to charge every 1-3days , incidentally , Huawei watch could last up to 7-14days per charge , thats a great benefit and basic to track 24-7 health index easily , also , if you use Huawei app (China ver) , you could find bunch of coach , diet , sleep , health ...program , thats what Apple , Google , Samsung cant provide , its critical that beneficial functions and features lie not only in hardware , but compelling applications and services Huawei excelled in , and even local brands like Xiaomi , oppo , vivo cant compete . Huawei is definitely a solution/ecosystem provider than others for watch industry.
Unfortunately these features rely on sharing sensitive personal and health data with some random non-medical entity, which is strictly frobidden in most countries, especially in USA and EU. Also every single country have specifics in that. Such "coach, diet and etc" has a lot of legal issues to be able to provide to users. China legally tracking people is a norm, hence you have it there. Another issue could be that in fact a non-medical entity will be providing health advices which is also strictly forbidden almost everywhere.
I want payment option, g-maps navigation, calling feature, sleep and heart tracking. To get this In Europe I have three options. WearOs, iOs or... Garmin Venu 3. That's it. No matter how great ecosystem you think Huawei is (and it is not btw) it will not work 100% properly here. Never. Because of Chinese Huawei. End of story.
@@venimus0lol, every brand is stealing your data if you are a user. Just they are hiding. They banned Huawei to kick Huawei from competition. Now Apple and Samsung is leading. But I know the quality of Huawei. They're still rocking.
I intend to buy the GW6 at first. However after consider the pros and cons, I finally choose GT4. First, I don't like the hassle of charging watch frequently or have the anxiety not having sufficient battery life in daily use. This is especially if I am traveling. Afterall no matter how good a smartwatch can be, it is completely useless if it run out of battery when you need them the most. At a higher price tag for GW6, features like ECG, BP and BIA suppose to be the pull factors. However the incompatibility of these feature with non Samsung devices sets them back. Why pay more if both watches offers similar health features.On the other hand, GT4 has a library of workout guidance which adds value to the available feature and best of all they are free to access. Last but not least, the design of GT4 especially the leather variant looks premium and stand out from GW6.
thanks for the review. I got my first galaxy watch, which is a galaxy watch 6 and I really love it. I mainly use it to go for a run and listen to Spotify, or to get my notifications during the day. The battery matter is really relative: At the end of the day, I put my phone to charge so my watch, so no biggie here. I genuinely wouldn't be able to tell how much the battery lasts. Love all the features, yet on day to day basis I mainly use a quarter of it.
Just try this Huawei watch GT4 Bro. For sure you will like it, the design is very unique and many features are awesome. I love the 100 plus workout mode
I'd have to agree as a us expat the push towards apple is just unappealing. On a yearly basis are even trying to sue google and amazon to make sure apple stays at the top spot it really is absurd. If the states embraced it's own companies the way countries like China, Taiwan, Korea, and Japan do they could easily have a greater hold on the technology sector
Very good review. No one ever talks about the limitations on health monitoring which Huawei is a clear winner except for ECG and bp. Hopefully on the pro version.
I have a GT3 and for me, for my needs it's more than enough and at the same time a no brainer, the most important thing is the battery, paired with an iphone it lasts me @ 12-13 days. GJ Huawei!
I replaced my Galaxy Watch 3 by the Huawei GT4 during the Prime days with Amazon for EUR 205,-- only. not really interested in all the extra external apps and in my opinion the GT4 offers a great deal of interesting features especially for health and sports and so far I am really happy with it. The 46mm looks great (and better) om my wrist and the battery seems to be so much better now already! The GW3 needed to be charged every day. You will not be disappointed buying the GT4.
I prefer GT4.First price reasonable . Secondly battery life is almost last 14 days. Never the less the last thing is continuous of health check and accurate that is more critical. When traveling no worries and carrying the charges with u all the times. Who know in future the wallet payment might able to use in world wide (software can be upgrade and download into smart watch.). I use to carry samsung hp, infuture l will switch to huawei hp bec their AI and technology is ahead compare the rest of the hp.
The GT series is not comparable to Samsung's Watch series. Watch Series Huawei and Watch Samsung are comparable. But never mind... For me certainly here, GT4 is a beast. I have a Watch GT 3 and very very satisfied. I charge the battery twice a month, so I wouldn't add anything else.
@@japomierm 😂 I don't need those. Even if I did, charging my phone every two days is a pain in the ass. I'd absolutely hate my phone one month in if I had to charge it everyday. It's a madness tbh
GT4 got much better build quality... Solid stainless steel case like common watch looks and feels so good!!! The green version of GT4 is the best imo...
I had a Huawei GT2 watch and I really like the watch, long battery life, never replaced the straps for more than 3yr or probably 4yr (I do not remember exactly) of usage. Unfortunately the display detached, but even I could repair it and glue it back I am not disappointed since I always used it day and night for more than 3yr, this was a huge deal. It is time to change for a new watch, and I feel prone to try the Galaxy W6 only because of one single feature which is the blood pressure monitoring. I have been diagnosed with hypertension and since then my health habits and blood pressure monitoring have changed. I will come back in some weeks/months and write down my comments about this feature.
Garmin venu 3 ❤ galaxy watch suck with every calorie step and activity tracking, battery life suck as well, i came from galaxy watch 4 and got now the garmin venu 3 and i am super happy with! Also tracking night sleep, naps at day, relaxing moments and has body battery status and Shows how workout effects your body and how long you should rest and HRV tracking stress monotoring and very accurate sensors for heartrate tracking steps calories etc. Also comparable with myfitnesspal and a nice period tracking for women.
From what I have seen from reviews the GW6 GPS performance is not very good. I have a GW4 and when compared to the GPS of my phone it was always off. My GT3 accuracy was much better. I personally do not see the reason to have ECG, in my case, but I see that for some person would be useful. For blood pressure in the GW monitoring it is quite useless, since it requires regular calibration with a proper BP Monitoring. Again I can see the utility for someone who needs to constantly monitor BP but no advantages for me at all. The body fat sensor it is ok on the GW4, but sometimes it is completely wrong, with fluctations of 2 digits between consecutive measurement. Sleep tracking seems better on the Huawei in my experience, but I do not have a medical grade device to compare to, so it is subjective. In the end, for my use case, the GT series is much better. I do not have to charge it daily, the sport tracking seems more accurate and complete (e.g. Skiing workout on my GW4 tracks only HR while the in the GT4 it is much more complete, GPS and HR more accurate) The only things that I really miss in the the GT series are the NFC payments and spotify, but still the GW4 ended up in a drawer.
Features of Samsung and battery and anesthetics of Samsung would be the best option for me😅😅 meanwhile I m not sure if I should return the gt4 and get a Samsung or not🤔
I have GW6 44mm LTE and it lasts me a day and a half. While Huawei is good, it practically doesn't really have any smart functions. GW is like a mini phone on a wrist! If you just need good health tracking and battery life then go for Huawei, for everything else GW for sure.
@Chigz Tech Reviews i have a question sir, do you have a watch name. With the feature that i can download strava in the playstore. And use smart pay? and also the battery should are enough for 5 days.
I use gt4 and ultimate just for the battery life. I would love a long battery life version of samsung as i use a fold. I could use samsung pay and all but with this kind of battery life its impossible for me
Just bought the GT4 the other day. Beautiful watch. Vivid screen. The button scroller is a little strange but I will get used to it. It looks amazing. This watch will replace a Garmin S60 Golf watch which I'm supposed to upgrade to S70 but the price is just too steep (3x the cost of GT4!)
Awesome video. Main difference in specs is that SGW6 is an android device with a good processor and 2gb of ram while GT4 is an embedded device running custom software on pretty low power hardware. GT3 ha 32MB of ram, this is what allows GT4 to have such a long battery
ECG and bloody pressure estimation are two key features for me and working pretty well on Samsung , and Samsung can discover apneas problems in the sleep because monitoring saturation during night , because i prefer Samsung
i traded in my samsung galaxy watch 4 and applw watch series 7 for the Stainless silver GT4. i dont regret it at all. battery life alone is more than enough. Its a proper watch
I still do not understand why Samsung uses packaging resembling a toothbrush box. It does make it look cheap. GT4 box, on the other hand, looks premium on all sides. Anyway, thanks for this great side-by-side comparison video and I decided to go for the GT4.
What should I buy, I have s23+, and I don't like the battery life in W6 classic. Wanna buy Smith tomorrow, not sure yet which one. What u suggest bro ?
I have the same phone and I still haven't decided. W6 or GT4, one with lots of features, one with battery. I'm very curious about what you chose in the end.
I'm with galaxy watch 6 classic, functional watches, even though I don't use most of the features. The only problem is the battery, but you get used to it 😄
Reasons to buy GW6 Android OS with Samsung layer (can't believe I say this nowadays, but it is awesome) Sapphire glass is worth the extra alone True Wireless charging Facility to charge from phone with reverse charging Continual SW updates, fixes, new features Facility to change font size Integrates seemlessly with Google Fit Google Pay Reasons to buy HW4 Battery life
I agree Samsung's' watch is the best. Im just sick and tired of charging it. Sometimes I forget and dont realise I have a dead watch on my wrist and only notice when I try to look at the time. At that point, I feel like throwing it in the dumpster.
Not only battery life. The health sensors Huawei has get more accurate readings compared with any Samsung wearable. Huawei heart sensor is on par with Apple Watch accuracy.
How huawei is better at features when huawei is a fitness band not a true smartwatch?? 😅😅 Samsung has a lot more features then gt4 because it is a smartwatch not a fitnessband
Looking for a better smartwatch, GW6 is better if you're using samsung and ready to prepare charger everytime traveling. But GT 4 if you is better for all.. using GT 4 since launched with my poco f4 gt. The battery and health@sleep tracking really help
I still cannot believe no one apart from myself is mentioning the gt4 heart rate problem when not using a workout mode,in it's everyday to day use it reaches 151bpm and struggles badly to rise about that number,had the same problem with the gt3 also
I have a galaxy watch, but I never really used its smart watch features, I think most of it are just gimmicks, what is important for me is that I can answer calls, quick reply messages when I cant answer a call, and a long battery life, which I found in my Gt4, another thing is that I want a classic looking smartwatch that looks and feel like a real watch and not a smart toy.
They're the same price in my country and I don't know which one to go for, I'm using a Watch GT 2 for over 3 years with no issues but Galaxy Watch 6 seems like a great deal at the same price as the GT 4
Im not quite sure how accurate the ECG option would be considering when an ecg is conducted on a person, five probes are located in the chest region. A watch on the wrist would not indicate a true heart pattern.
I currently have a first Gen Samsun Galaxy. and while i like it, the battery life isnt great, ive been looking at the Huaweis, but cant decided between the GT3 pro and GT4.
I will never buy a smart watch will never last more than a week of battery life like samsung and apple watch, i’ve been using my GT1 watch for years and still last for more than a week, might upgrade to GT3 pro or GT4.
Detail review and I love RUclips video that opens with soft subtle music unlike other videos that have IOUO loud blasting music the at very😮 beginning I just can't stand that. Going back to thew w atch welcor welcome to longer battery life cheaper and using human voice thank you thati don't have listen to vi AI voices
I had plan for Samsung Watch 6 but for battery things, I will go for GT 4. I am tired of charging the watch every day and then forget and lose all my activity track.
since i dont need the other extras on the GW, i only need the notifs, and health monitor so i choose GT5, for its longger batt performance, looks, price
I'm getting a smasung watch 6 soon because my Huawei gt 2 pro got damaged when I was swimming with it (didn't hit it against anything and just used for swimming), but not now the screen is coming off and the screen didn't work for 2 days after the water got in. So, now I won't use a watch when swimming, but it's now hard to trust the durability of the watch in water.
my gw 1st gen get ghost touching after update, even reset also does not help. dont update if you still want to use it. noticing battery capacity gw6, worried about battery life. so, bought gw5pro. moderate usage, 8am to 6pm all feature on expect gps, wifi, stress, gesture and snoring. did not include sleep monitoring. almost 4 full days before need to charge. including sleep tracking + temp - snore detection, only almost 3 full days including running +/- 40 min without gps, only almost 2 full days some might argue, just charge when you shower and whats not, im not planning to buy/upgrade frequently as im planning to use it for at least 4/5 years. bought gw1st gen 2018, the battery only started significantly deteriorated early 2023, had to charge twice a day.
@@fatangel09 I'm really very happy with it's performance truth be told. I never used any smartwatch better than this before. I even had apple watch but apple stands no chance against Huawei watches. You can put your money in it without any fear.
Yes, I wish Samsung could improve the battery. The GT4 stayed on my wrist after the review, GW6 came off. I really like the fact that I don't have to look at the charger.
I have an issue with GT4 as i have Samsung mobile, i cannot control the phone alarm on GT4 when its ringing and also, i cannot silence the ringtone from my watch when i get calls (just answer or decline)
I’m getting the Huawei because it’s cheaper then their rivals, it has the expensive watch body look and it has a 2 week battery life. It would be hard getting the GT4 specs because American companies and American allied companies are banned from supplying Huawei due to unfair US government sanctions on Huawei. That’s why western software can’t provide support or apps for Huawei watch. This is all part of a huge geopolitical war America is waging against China in order to maintain their number 1 spot in the world. It’s unfair and goes against western capitalism.
i liked the huawei gt4 but the only problem for me its the normal glass that can be scrached easly , should i buy the GT3 pro instead ? i dont want that all features that samsung give and the battery is not good on the samsung
Here's the thing, I have been wearing the GT4 for many days and not a single scratch, that includes showers, sleep, 247 watch stays on my wrist. The bezels and act as protection for the screen. unless you smash the center of the screen into a sharp object, I cant see any way to scratch this up so far. with normal use.
I just bought samsung watch 5 pro instead, i was so confused, but i wanted titanium case with high battery life. Also my phone is samsung. Yet huawei GT4 jas it is advantages, mainly huge battery life. Both choices are ok.
I do not understand the people here. Is it too difficult to charge it daily? You are so lazy. Galaxy watch 6 is a real smart watch but gt4 is just a watch too look at the time.
Omg, 226 pounds. I bought gt4 black (new and not refurbished) in Russia for 122 USD last week on the NY sale 😮 Its only 95 pounds. Amazing watches for that price.
Thank you for this comparison, I was looking for gw6 vs gt4 . Actually I was interested for gt4 41mm but it doesn't support nfc payments for Europe. I am using amazfit gts and Gtr3Pro for the last 2 years so I am updating definitely for gw6.
I have owned almost every Samsung smart watch ever launched, and just purchased by first Huawei watch - GT3SE. The Huawei watch wins for style and battery life. Loses on every other aspect. For me the biggest issue with the GT3SE (presume other Huawei watches too) is the missing details in notifications. It only shows notification content - doesn't show notification title and details. GT3SE also doesn't show more than 1 or 2 past notifications.
great video!! detailed info! can you adjust the always on display's brigtness of GT4?(auto/manual) cause I find the brightness of the AOD on GT4 is too dim. Thank you!
What i dont see in these reviews is the difference between the software. I have Huawei GT2 and just and i have today arrived my Samsung watch 6 . Installing all the software i must say that Huawei there software is way more extensive. Can somebody give a link between a good comparison from both software. Sorry my english....lol
The comparison is unfair, Samsung is much superior to Huawei. The Huawei should be compared to a Garmin Venu 3, Polar Ignite 3, as they are more or less in the same category, more focused on sports and well-being. The only Huawei that could be compared to a Samsung would be the Watch 4.

I really would rather have the 41mm version of the 44m Gt4 😃😃😃 I like 40-42 inch watch but the 41mm GT4 is definitely feminine..
@@antonius0809 But was a woman I don't mind that it is feminine. I also like the minimalism of it.... :D
thanks for the review. I got my first galaxy watch, which is a galaxy watch 6 and I really love it. I mainly use it to go for a run and listen to Spotify, or to get my notifications during the day. The battery matter is really relative: At the end of the day, I put my phone to charge so my watch, so no biggie here. I genuinely wouldn't be able to tell how much the battery lasts. Love all the features, yet on day to day basis I mainly use a quarter of it.
Just try this Huawei watch GT4 Bro. For sure you will like it, the design is very unique and many features are awesome. I love the 100 plus workout mode
I'd have to agree as a us expat the push towards apple is just unappealing. On a yearly basis are even trying to sue google and amazon to make sure apple stays at the top spot it really is absurd. If the states embraced it's own companies the way countries like China, Taiwan, Korea, and Japan do they could easily have a greater hold on the technology sector
My samsung watch 6 died during my 21km run
Very good review. No one ever talks about the limitations on health monitoring which Huawei is a clear winner except for ECG and bp. Hopefully on the pro version.
I bought Huawei GT4, Battery last very long, and very good and Beautiful Stylish
Using the gt4 with my iphone and it is a great alternative to a boring apple watch plus I get compliments on it a few times every week
I have a GT3 and for me, for my needs it's more than enough and at the same time a no brainer, the most important thing is the battery, paired with an iphone it lasts me @ 12-13 days. GJ Huawei!
I replaced my Galaxy Watch 3 by the Huawei GT4 during the Prime days with Amazon for EUR 205,-- only. not really interested in all the extra external apps and in my opinion the GT4 offers a great deal of interesting features especially for health and sports and so far I am really happy with it. The 46mm looks great (and better) om my wrist and the battery seems to be so much better now already! The GW3 needed to be charged every day. You will not be disappointed buying the GT4.
I prefer GT4.First price reasonable . Secondly battery life is almost last 14 days. Never the less the last thing is continuous of health check and accurate that is more critical. When traveling no worries and carrying the charges with u all the times. Who know in future the wallet payment might able to use in world wide (software can be upgrade and download into smart watch.). I use to carry samsung hp, infuture l will switch to huawei hp bec their AI and technology is ahead compare the rest of the hp.
The GT series is not comparable to Samsung's Watch series. Watch Series Huawei and Watch Samsung are comparable. But never mind... For me certainly here, GT4 is a beast. I have a Watch GT 3 and very very satisfied. I charge the battery twice a month, so I wouldn't add anything else.
Except google pay, g-maps, assistant, show pictures from messagees, g-board etc...
Ya how you compare wear os with no wear os, wrong compare
@@japomiluckily ...i dont need all that feature , gt4 for me😊
@@japomierm 😂 I don't need those.
Even if I did, charging my phone every two days is a pain in the ass.
I'd absolutely hate my phone one month in if I had to charge it everyday. It's a madness tbh
GT4 got much better build quality... Solid stainless steel case like common watch looks and feels so good!!! The green version of GT4 is the best imo...
I had a Huawei GT2 watch and I really like the watch, long battery life, never replaced the straps for more than 3yr or probably 4yr (I do not remember exactly) of usage. Unfortunately the display detached, but even I could repair it and glue it back I am not disappointed since I always used it day and night for more than 3yr, this was a huge deal. It is time to change for a new watch, and I feel prone to try the Galaxy W6 only because of one single feature which is the blood pressure monitoring. I have been diagnosed with hypertension and since then my health habits and blood pressure monitoring have changed. I will come back in some weeks/months and write down my comments about this feature.
Garmin venu 3 ❤ galaxy watch suck with every calorie step and activity tracking, battery life suck as well, i came from galaxy watch 4 and got now the garmin venu 3 and i am super happy with! Also tracking night sleep, naps at day, relaxing moments and has body battery status and Shows how workout effects your body and how long you should rest and HRV tracking stress monotoring and very accurate sensors for heartrate tracking steps calories etc. Also comparable with myfitnesspal and a nice period tracking for women.
The Garmin venu 3 is an amazing watch. I had one and i love it. I switch for a forerunner 965 for the maps and the 5 buttons.
Pls mention about the battery back up too.. Waiting for your replies. 😊
From what I have seen from reviews the GW6 GPS performance is not very good. I have a GW4 and when compared to the GPS of my phone it was always off. My GT3 accuracy was much better. I personally do not see the reason to have ECG, in my case, but I see that for some person would be useful.
For blood pressure in the GW monitoring it is quite useless, since it requires regular calibration with a proper BP Monitoring. Again I can see the utility for someone who needs to constantly monitor BP but no advantages for me at all.
The body fat sensor it is ok on the GW4, but sometimes it is completely wrong, with fluctations of 2 digits between consecutive measurement.
Sleep tracking seems better on the Huawei in my experience, but I do not have a medical grade device to compare to, so it is subjective.
In the end, for my use case, the GT series is much better. I do not have to charge it daily, the sport tracking seems more accurate and complete (e.g. Skiing workout on my GW4 tracks only HR while the in the GT4 it is much more complete, GPS and HR more accurate)
The only things that I really miss in the the GT series are the NFC payments and spotify, but still the GW4 ended up in a drawer.
Da li je moguće da je huawei gt bolji od samsunga po pitanju mjerenja
I have the Samsung watch 6 and the 6 classic and both feel cheap on the wrist.
Id like samsung for features but for aesthetics I want the Gt4
Features of Samsung and battery and anesthetics of Samsung would be the best option for me😅😅 meanwhile I m not sure if I should return the gt4 and get a Samsung or not🤔
I have GW6 44mm LTE and it lasts me a day and a half. While Huawei is good, it practically doesn't really have any smart functions. GW is like a mini phone on a wrist!
If you just need good health tracking and battery life then go for Huawei, for everything else GW for sure.
Does it allow to answer whatsapp calls?
Hi Chigz
What would your choice be between the GT4 and the watch 5 pro ?
I personally find the watch 5 pro too big and bulky for my wrist, so I would go for GT4.
Huawei GT4 all the way. It's my dream smartwatch
@Chigz Tech Reviews i have a question sir, do you have a watch name. With the feature that i can download strava in the playstore. And use smart pay? and also the battery should are enough for 5 days.
I use gt4 and ultimate just for the battery life. I would love a long battery life version of samsung as i use a fold. I could use samsung pay and all but with this kind of battery life its impossible for me
Just bought the GT4 the other day. Beautiful watch. Vivid screen. The button scroller is a little strange but I will get used to it. It looks amazing. This watch will replace a Garmin S60 Golf watch which I'm supposed to upgrade to S70 but the price is just too steep (3x the cost of GT4!)
Awesome video. Main difference in specs is that SGW6 is an android device with a good processor and 2gb of ram while GT4 is an embedded device running custom software on pretty low power hardware. GT3 ha 32MB of ram, this is what allows GT4 to have such a long battery
ECG and bloody pressure estimation are two key features for me and working pretty well on Samsung , and Samsung can discover apneas problems in the sleep because monitoring saturation during night , because i prefer Samsung
I don’t want my watch spying on me and reporting to the NSA, so I got the Huawei 😁
Thats a good joke 🤣
Huawei phones lately deleted all the protest pictures from the phone. So what you say about China being spying on your nerves. 😅
With what pgone do you uses it?
i traded in my samsung galaxy watch 4 and applw watch series 7 for the Stainless silver GT4. i dont regret it at all. battery life alone is more than enough. Its a proper watch
I still do not understand why Samsung uses packaging resembling a toothbrush box. It does make it look cheap. GT4 box, on the other hand, looks premium on all sides. Anyway, thanks for this great side-by-side comparison video and I decided to go for the GT4.
Well done! One of the best product reviews I've ever watched. 👍
What should I buy, I have s23+, and I don't like the battery life in W6 classic.
Wanna buy Smith tomorrow, not sure yet which one. What u suggest bro ?
I have the same phone and I still haven't decided. W6 or GT4, one with lots of features, one with battery. I'm very curious about what you chose in the end.
What did you end up with? And how is it.
I have the same problem, W6 vs gt 4 😅
I'm with galaxy watch 6 classic, functional watches, even though I don't use most of the features. The only problem is the battery, but you get used to it 😄
Reasons to buy GW6
Android OS with Samsung layer (can't believe I say this nowadays, but it is awesome)
Sapphire glass is worth the extra alone
True Wireless charging
Facility to charge from phone with reverse charging
Continual SW updates, fixes, new features
Facility to change font size
Integrates seemlessly with Google Fit
Google Pay
Reasons to buy HW4
Battery life
I agree Samsung's' watch is the best. Im just sick and tired of charging it. Sometimes I forget and dont realise I have a dead watch on my wrist and only notice when I try to look at the time. At that point, I feel like throwing it in the dumpster.
But the Huawei has wireless charging and reverse charging...
Not only battery life. The health sensors Huawei has get more accurate readings compared with any Samsung wearable.
Huawei heart sensor is on par with Apple Watch accuracy.
are you beating horseshoes with the watch, why in the world would you need a sapphire glass for a watch
@@ChigzTechsamsnug nije najbolji sat to su sve igračke za garmin
GT wins, battery life and price and features! gready samsung
How huawei is better at features when huawei is a fitness band not a true smartwatch?? 😅😅 Samsung has a lot more features then gt4 because it is a smartwatch not a fitnessband
I heard the sleeping tacking is really bad in Gt4. Pls confirm?
I got the Huawei!! nicer quality and price :)
Battery life on Samsung watch is a deal breaker.
Hi. Is battery on Galaxy Watch 6 really bad??? I want to buy it because I have Samsung smartphone.
Just ordered GT4
Looking for a better smartwatch, GW6 is better if you're using samsung and ready to prepare charger everytime traveling. But GT 4 if you is better for all.. using GT 4 since launched with my poco f4 gt. The battery and health@sleep tracking really help
Hey there, i just wanted an honest opinion from everybody. Is the gt3 42mm good?
Does Huawei Watch GT4 have NFC payment (Google Wallet)? This is one of the most useful features to me.
it has NFC, but only able to use in China
I still cannot believe no one apart from myself is mentioning the gt4 heart rate problem when not using a workout mode,in it's everyday to day use it reaches 151bpm and struggles badly to rise about that number,had the same problem with the gt3 also
I am having a Huawei Y9 Prime 2019
Will the Galaxy watch 6 lack any feature when it’s with a Huawei phone ?
@@hadzratedr no only Samsung phones
I have a galaxy watch, but I never really used its smart watch features, I think most of it are just gimmicks, what is important for me is that I can answer calls, quick reply messages when I cant answer a call, and a long battery life, which I found in my Gt4, another thing is that I want a classic looking smartwatch that looks and feel like a real watch and not a smart toy.
They're the same price in my country and I don't know which one to go for, I'm using a Watch GT 2 for over 3 years with no issues but Galaxy Watch 6 seems like a great deal at the same price as the GT 4
Im not quite sure how accurate the ECG option would be considering when an ecg is conducted on a person, five probes are located in the chest region. A watch on the wrist would not indicate a true heart pattern.
Huawei GT4: 14 days 👍
Samsung GW6: 1 day 👎
Huawei is king in all, smartphones, watches, cars, all tech industry
Cars?
The gt4 is almost double the price than the gw6 in UAE ...
I like how gt4 battery is strong..but overall the gw6 looks wonderful as well
Huawei gt 4 for sure
I've asked the official online store locally, and they replied that the gt4 uses aluminosilicate glass. Not bad anyways.
I currently have a first Gen Samsun Galaxy. and while i like it, the battery life isnt great, ive been looking at the Huaweis, but cant decided between the GT3 pro and GT4.
Yes. Need help please gt3 pro or gt4
I will never buy a smart watch will never last more than a week of battery life like samsung and apple watch, i’ve been using my GT1 watch for years and still last for more than a week, might upgrade to GT3 pro or GT4.
GT1 is great. I like it so much.
Yet the margin of the OLED display has burned out.
So thinking about GT4 now ...
The physical comparison is meaningless at this point. Compare the experiences makes better senses.
Detail review and I love RUclips video that opens with soft subtle music unlike other videos that have IOUO loud blasting music the at very😮 beginning I just can't stand that. Going back to thew w atch welcor welcome to longer battery life cheaper and using human voice thank you thati don't have listen to vi AI voices
I had plan for Samsung Watch 6 but for battery things, I will go for GT 4. I am tired of charging the watch every day and then forget and lose all my activity track.
since i dont need the other extras on the GW, i only need the notifs, and health monitor so i choose GT5, for its longger batt performance, looks, price
I'm getting a smasung watch 6 soon because my Huawei gt 2 pro got damaged when I was swimming with it (didn't hit it against anything and just used for swimming), but not now the screen is coming off and the screen didn't work for 2 days after the water got in. So, now I won't use a watch when swimming, but it's now hard to trust the durability of the watch in water.
Touble is Samsung watches are no where as accurate in fitness tracking and health. Only better for apps
Does the GT4 have sapphire crystal?
my gw 1st gen get ghost touching after update, even reset also does not help. dont update if you still want to use it.
noticing battery capacity gw6, worried about battery life. so, bought gw5pro.
moderate usage, 8am to 6pm all feature on expect gps, wifi, stress, gesture and snoring. did not include sleep monitoring. almost 4 full days before need to charge.
including sleep tracking + temp - snore detection, only almost 3 full days
including running +/- 40 min without gps, only almost 2 full days
some might argue, just charge when you shower and whats not, im not planning to buy/upgrade frequently as im planning to use it for at least 4/5 years.
bought gw1st gen 2018, the battery only started significantly deteriorated early 2023, had to charge twice a day.
how easily does the Huawei GT4 sync with Strava?
Samsung sensörleri açıksa 12 saate şarjı bitiriyormuş. Tercihim gt4 oldu.
I'm still rocking my Huawei GT3 Pro
Huawei GT4 is miles better. I bought one for myself.It's Apple killer.
Are you happy with the notifications eg. WhatsApp? And can you load petal maps for navigation while running? Interested to hear from an owner. Thanks!
@@fatangel09 I'm really very happy with it's performance truth be told. I never used any smartwatch better than this before. I even had apple watch but apple stands no chance against Huawei watches. You can put your money in it without any fear.
I think the G6's charge lasts a maximum of 2.5 days. How much does it cost when all health tracking is on?
It will cost you 1 day of battery life.
😁😁😁👍👍👍..I would give Samsung the edge .the best os and great features. Just wish the battery life was better .awesome as usual chigz...
Yes, I wish Samsung could improve the battery. The GT4 stayed on my wrist after the review, GW6 came off. I really like the fact that I don't have to look at the charger.
I have an issue with GT4 as i have Samsung mobile, i cannot control the phone alarm on GT4 when its ringing and also, i cannot silence the ringtone from my watch when i get calls (just answer or decline)
I’m getting the Huawei because it’s cheaper then their rivals, it has the expensive watch body look and it has a 2 week battery life. It would be hard getting the GT4 specs because American companies and American allied companies are banned from supplying Huawei due to unfair US government sanctions on Huawei. That’s why western software can’t provide support or apps for Huawei watch. This is all part of a huge geopolitical war America is waging against China in order to maintain their number 1 spot in the world. It’s unfair and goes against western capitalism.
i liked the huawei gt4 but the only problem for me its the normal glass that can be scrached easly , should i buy the GT3 pro instead ? i dont want that all features that samsung give and the battery is not good on the samsung
Here's the thing, I have been wearing the GT4 for many days and not a single scratch, that includes showers, sleep, 247 watch stays on my wrist. The bezels and act as protection for the screen. unless you smash the center of the screen into a sharp object, I cant see any way to scratch this up so far. with normal use.
you just simply add tempered glass on it, as i used it for additional protection 🤣
I just bought samsung watch 5 pro instead, i was so confused, but i wanted titanium case with high battery life. Also my phone is samsung. Yet huawei GT4 jas it is advantages, mainly huge battery life. Both choices are ok.
Good luck charging every two days for more expensive watch.😂😂😂
200$ and i charge every other 4-5 days ;) Genius @@route55qatar

I do not understand the people here. Is it too difficult to charge it daily? You are so lazy. Galaxy watch 6 is a real smart watch but gt4 is just a watch too look at the time.
Great comparison 👍
Thx from Munich 😉
I was about to pick the GW6 until you mentioned that BP and ECG will work only on samsung phones. Bad news for iOS users.
Omg, 226 pounds. I bought gt4 black (new and not refurbished) in Russia for 122 USD last week on the NY sale 😮 Its only 95 pounds. Amazing watches for that price.
I'd gladly pay an additional 131 pounds to not have to go to russia.
Thank you for this comparison, I was looking for gw6 vs gt4 .
Actually I was interested for gt4 41mm but it doesn't support nfc payments for Europe. I am using amazfit gts and Gtr3Pro for the last 2 years so I am updating definitely for gw6.
I have gt2 pro till now luv it
Huawei have ecg?
I have owned almost every Samsung smart watch ever launched, and just purchased by first Huawei watch - GT3SE. The Huawei watch wins for style and battery life. Loses on every other aspect. For me the biggest issue with the GT3SE (presume other Huawei watches too) is the missing details in notifications. It only shows notification content - doesn't show notification title and details. GT3SE also doesn't show more than 1 or 2 past notifications.
Did you like Huawei?
@@MarcoPolo82 not at all.
great video!! detailed info! can you adjust the always on display's brigtness of GT4?(auto/manual)
cause I find the brightness of the AOD on GT4 is too dim. Thank you!
Yes. The brightness can be manually set.
It could be the watch face.. The green background...
Who need fast charging if you only charge twice a month?
Spot-on review!
What i dont see in these reviews is the difference between the software. I have Huawei GT2 and just and i have today arrived my Samsung watch 6 . Installing all the software i must say that Huawei there software is way more extensive. Can somebody give a link between a good comparison from both software. Sorry my english....lol
1:02 Samsung lags, it's so samsung xD
14 days battery life for me clear winner
No google pay - no Huawei.
Does sam watch supports calls on WhatsApp? I mean i can answer the call and speak normally
GT4 seems to be the better option.
I bought the GT4 because of its autonomy, but they are very bad at counting steps. I hope they fix it
You have to be specfic about how you want your steps counted, by phone or watch, I have gt3 pro, it's amazing, never had any issues with anything
The comparison is unfair, Samsung is much superior to Huawei. The Huawei should be compared to a Garmin Venu 3, Polar Ignite 3, as they are more or less in the same category, more focused on sports and well-being. The only Huawei that could be compared to a Samsung would be the Watch 4.
Even those garmins gots wireless payment
@@japomiBut for wireless payments to work, it depends on agreements with banks and financial institutions. Here in Brazil, Garmin Pay only works with BMG bank. Huawei has been banned, so don't even think about agreements with banks.
