Huawei Watch Fit - Small Price, Big Screen, Big Battery & Tons of Fitness Features

/

I've been using the Huawei GT2e Smartwatch pretty much exclusively since it was launched & I am a big fan of it & that's why I'm super excited to have teamed up with Huawei to show you guys Huawei's Watch Fit... It's like a fitness band but much much better.

Design

So you'll notice straight away Huawei has taken a different approach to the shape of the device. Effectively avoiding being called an Apple Watch knock off, at the same time as giving you more screen real estate.

So we have a 1.64" rectangular AMOLED with 325ppi 16.7 million colours & ultra-thin bezels made from fibre-reinforced plastic. Which ultimately gives the Huawei Watch fit a 70% screen to body ratio. 

Now I know what you're thinking... plastic? Yes, it is and for a good reason. By using this material Huawei has managed to keep the weight very low... At 34grams with the straps, it's quite comparable in weight to some basic fitness bands.

On the back, we have a raised surface and the usual sensors for monitoring...and two contact points for Huawei's proprietary magnetic fast charger.

The straps are removable and available in 4 different colours...Sakura pink, Mint green, cantaloupe orange & graphite black.

Now, I know this is something you guys are going to want to know about...at the time of this video, there are more than 130 watch faces to choose from. Yes, you can also create your own using your phone's photo gallery which is a really cool add on. 

But the great thing here with regards to watch faces is that Huawei has made this an open platform. So 3rd party designers can make custom watch faces and add them to the library at any time... So expect that 130 watch face number to grow in the future.

Usability

When it comes to the day to day use. You could just use the Huawei Watch Fit as a watch. It's stylish enough not to be mistaken for just a fit band... So that's a win in my opinion.

You can use it to do cool things day to day things like find your phone, control your music, set alarms, control your phones camera a distance, and there's even a smart alarm setting where the watch will tell you what time you should be waking up.

But the reality is pretty much all the features on the Huawei Watch Fit is for anyone who wants to keep tabs on their fitness. There are so many workouts to choose from. There are 96 modes in total & 12 fitness courses. The Huawei Fit can also track sleep, stress Sp02, calories burnt, distance travelled...all the usual stuff.

With that said. 

The Huawei Watch Fit is now more accurate than previous generations thanks to Huawei's 4th gen TruSeen heart rate monitoring & TruSleep 2.0... The way all the data is displayed on the Huawei’s Health app is very easy to read & it will even give you advice on based on your activities...or lack of.

AWESOME FEATURES

The Huawei Watch fit has GPS, so you can now track your locations, distance, elevation everything. Any smart and can give you statistics...but this Huawei Watch Fit actually gives you scientific advice....science. The watch is literally like a health scientist.

You know... I always say the problem with Smartwatches is 'when out of power they become pretty stupid'. With that said, this shouldn't with this one. Because with just 5mins charging time will give an entire day worth of power. 30 mins will get you to 70% & a fully charged Huawei Watch Fit will last you between 7 & 10 days.... that's some serious power efficiency… and maybe the most awesome thing about the Huawei Watch Fit is how it looks...
