I have the 46mm and bought it last Monday and after 8 days of heart rate monitoring but without the AOD I am on 37% - thats with 40 minutes of workout each day. I am seriously impressed to the extent that my Apple Watch has been sat on its charger since last Wednesday - I am not missing the apps on my watch, for me a long battery life, the basic apps and a great look is what I want in a watch. As others have said this watch has built in GPS despite what the video says.
emeres hi how do u like your watch? Im thinking to pick one up but I worried I will miss with the apps and watchfaces. What do u think? How do u like yours? Thanks
I am using GT since 4 months. It is better then amazfit GTR which I used for two weeks and sold . I have ordered GT 2. Big thumbs Up to Huawei. I am a big fan of Huawei. I am using huawei 20 X mobile with M pen and gampad since 9 months. It works flowlessly for media consumption. It is now my daily drivers with GT watch. Now GT2
Absolutely want this watch asap I don't want all the nonsense on a watch. I want it to tell me the time and be a decent fitness tracker without the need of charging every day. Almost perfect smart watch in my opinion.
I hope you did not buy it. I have the watch gt, not the 2, which has the same op system. The 2 has some new features, but they share the same bugs. If you buy it for sleep tracking, its just broken. It doesnt work. While running, it sometes thinks that im running constantly from the left to the right. Sometes it just doesnt sync the new excercise on my phone. But hey it at least looks great.
@@belagajdan Been wearing the GT2 since I got it about 5 days ago. The only bugs it has is after midnight it doesn't track the activity minute for the hour but still does the steps and moderate intensity heart rate. It also hasn't worked out my resting heart rate I work night shifts 6pm-6am so I'm guessing it hasn't worked it out for that reason. The sleep tracking has no issues at all when I wake up feeling shit it's obvious it shows I've had bad sleep too much REM not enough deep sleep etc. The battery is amazing even with the continuous heart rate on. Not has to put it on charge yet with continuous heart rate on etc 64% after 5 days
@@damienwoodford I meant that smart alarm(if your watch has one) doesnt work in trusleep. It shows your rem and light and deep sleep, but it doesnt wake you up when you are in light sleep. Jf you switch truslepp off it works but you get almost no data of your sleep. Also it sometimes doesnt show me my notifications.
@@belagajdan You really can't compare the GT to the GT2. It's an improvement in every way. I have a certain time I need to be up for work fuck the smart alarm. Relying on a watch to wake you up is a stupid idea.
This is perfect for me, because I don't need my watch to be extremely smart. I have owned an Apple watch and Samsung gear S3 and I have never actually downloaded and used an app on those two. I need my watch to 1) be a beautiful watch 2) give me notifications 3) do fitness tracking, this one does it all with amazing battery life as well.
I just want a smartwatch to track my steps, show calories, sleep quality and also for when I go cycling, long walks and the gym when doing cardio and weights, this good for those things you think?
I just ordered mine. I get the functionality isn't on par with the likes of the galaxy watch but I dont personally need those extra functions. It fulfills everything I need and the battery life is the main selling point for me. I love it!
Love the look of it and was really tempted by the battery life, then I saw it on a day sale for £149 so decision made. Certainly smarter than my current G-Shock.
Thanks for the review. When the watch receive notification does the screen wake up or just vibration and how is the vibration strengh if you compare with Watch GT1. Thanks.
Absolutely awesome battery performance! As good as they are, the best smart watches on the market can't match the battery life of this device...not even close.
After 3yrs ..Still now, I used my GT2..batterylife was good, i think still normal, loudspeaker still good, the glass still good, bloetooth normal, gps normal, counting step normal... this is the one of beastceap product !!
Hey Chris, I was skeptical at first, but bought the watch (thanks to your review, used, first hand, for €50,-) and I must say, it's one cool watch. Using Health Sync app (Android), I can upload (and have uploaded) all my exercises to Strava - I can answer calls/talk on the phone with the phone in the pocket, listen to my music (from the phone or watch) and change tracks on a bike ride without having to reach out to my phone (this was essential for me). Battery life (and features) compared to my Suunto is phenomenal, out of this world.
This review nearly stopped me buying this watch because you said it doesn't have GPS and you can't download new watch faces. According to other reports it does have GPS and you can download new watch faces. I'm not sure who to believe exactly but I can always try it and return it if it doesn't have these features. Another problem is different sites say that the watch has different storage sizes which is also frustrating
Pretty sure I have seen other reviews where they changed volume of speaker, it has GPS and as far as a watch goes battery life is much more important than ability to reply to messages, cellular connection etc
Hey man! Have you used it enough to get it a bit scratched up? My question is does the Steel on the sides look silvery when they scratch up? Is it just one small layer of paint or is it deep enough to look good after a few years worth of scratches? Love the videos!
Are you able to turn off all notifications and vibrations and sounds? I don't want any of those; I only want to check my information and stats on my own initiative. I haven't been able to find to what extent that sort of thing can be customized.
Is there a way to use trainings (Running Plans) from Huawei Heatlh App on the watch? I've had the GT2 for 2 months and haven't been able to find how. It's a bit ridiculous, to follow my half marathon training plan I have to carry BOTH my phone and a watch, kinda makes you wonder what's the purpose of the watch if you have to carry the phone... I expected an actual integration between Huawei App and Huawei watch
Going to change from galaxy watch active 2 to this one. I know how great all the features in tizen OS, but I don't use most of them and top priority for me is AOD, notification and battery life. Didn't expect for a smartwatch to have a week of juice with AOD! Cheers for this review mate :)
@Max Hoekstra From my personal use of GT2, it didn't feel great even with the AOD. The AOD is different than the actual watch face and i don't like the only 3 choices of AOD. The unresponsiveness was annoying to say the least. I tried it at a shop first before buying and it felt ok, but after long use, i realized i was wrong in hindsight. What's great about it was that the battery and the looks. So imo no, galaxy active 2 is better. You just have to get used to charging here and there.
It's a pity you did not test accuracy. Just done 10km and watch shows 8.5km, 15% out, Steps around the same. Cannot adjust for stride. I bought the GT2 last week and I am awaiting the GT2 Pro to be delivered. They may be soon going back as not fit for purpose.
I almost bought the watch gt, then decided I would wait untill the next version came out and I'm soo glad I waited I'll be buying this as soon I can here in Canada
Have you found it in Canada and if so which shop and at what price? I tried to order the Amazfit Stratos 3 but no one seems to have the global version for sale (GearBest took my money three weeks ago but have now said they won't get it). Now I am focusing my attention on the GT2.
Hi, can I charge it with the original factory cable + a HUAWEI Super Charger? Or is the super charger a bit too strong for this battery? Thanks for the answer :)
What about the currentl situation between huawei and google. Is it easy enough to download the huawei app gallery in order to get the updated versions of the HMS and health apps? The watch itself seems pretty rad and way cheaper than the competition.
I would recommend updating this video (at least with a text tag) to correct the issues with it. Obviously the GPS issue is glaring and also the GT 1 also has always on feature (though added later as a patch). It would increase this channel's credibility greatly in my opinion.
Hi Im just thinking to pick watch up and this will be my first smartwatch ever. I was thinking to pick this one up because I would hate to charge my watch every day but the unsmartiness of this watch makes me think of something else instead. What do u think about the old galaxy 46mm watch? I heard it has the store so u can download plenty of apps and faces for the watch and also has decent battery life not like the active 2. So what do u think which watch has the best battery and still smart. Thanks ;)
If you are doing a review, check the product out first. There is GPS and the watch does have a lock function which would explain the freeze you experienced.
My watch gt2 stopped recieving WhatsApp call notification anymore. I used too get my WhatsApp call directly to my watch gt2. Now suddenly stopped working. However I tried connecting to iPhone it works fine. Only it's not working if I connected to any Android phone. Any idea? How to fix.
Just got this watch free with a new Matebook laptop, can't be bad. Replaces a Huawei Band 4 which does pretty much the same stuff, but with a smaller display.
Would you say it's a better deal than the Galaxy Watch? It's around the same price(30 euros cheaper) where I live and I consider buying one of em. My needs are music,calls, a good design and step count. I dont really care about notifications.

can gmial not be down loaded to phone
Pretty sure this has onboard GPS.
Will it connect to strava let’s hope so.
The black body option is just coated and when scratched it's silver bellow or it's solid black stainless steel when scratched stays black bellow?
Thinking of getting one of these, is the step tracker accurate/any good? Cheers.
Huawei Watch GT 2 waterproof to a depth of 50 meters, making it can swim, count strokes, swim and also check your heart rate during swimming.

Hi,
How and where does it display climbed floors?
Are the watch faces user-adaptable (ie able to select the complications displayed)?
Thank you.
This might be a silly question but it's driving me mad. on the watch face (shadows) what is the bar with numbers either side just above weather?
Is it me, why the bloody hell would you want to reply to a notification on a watch, OMG
very true, me too
Well you might want to clear them
@@jevaughndixon1218 You can with the GT2.
I too hate it when people have diffirent opinions.
If Bluetooth earbuds are connected via the watch and you answer a call from the watch, will the audio play from the watch's speaker or the buds?
