Huawei Watch GT2 experience: two new colors, but the "sports and health" capabilities are more attractive

There are more and more mobile phone manufacturers making smart watches. Several leading companies, including Apple, Samsung, Huawei, Xiaomi and OPPO, have launched their own smart watch products. However, there are still differences in the choice of product paths. Some pursue large and comprehensive functions, while others focus on capabilities in several aspects.

Huawei belongs to the latter. They focus more on improving the battery life and health management of watches, which is also well reflected in Huawei Watch GT2. Strictly speaking, it is not a new product. It was officially released last year. However, its 42mm series has recently brought two new colors and functional updates. Let’s take a look.

Taking the overall appearance design as a reference standard, smart watches currently on the market can be roughly divided into two categories. One is the square dial represented by Apple Watch, and the other is like Huawei Watch GT2. The round dials have different shapes, and the actual effects are also quite different.

Perception is the most direct aspect. Whether it looks good or not is a highly subjective matter. Some people like the square design while others like the round design. It’s hard to say which solution is better. However, compared with the square dial, because the round design inherits the style of traditional mechanical watches, it is indeed easier to be accepted by a wider user group.

Of course, this also represents the different product logics of manufacturers. The core appeal of the square design is to bring a larger display area and better human-computer interaction, combined with a virtual SIM card, to create your "wrist watch"; while the round design focuses more on the watch itself and its health benefits. Polishing of core functions such as monitoring.

Looking back at the Huawei Watch GT2, first of all, Huawei has put a lot of effort into the design materials. It is equipped with a 1.2-inch AMOLED screen, the surface is covered with 3D glass, and with a retina-level resolution of 390×390, it has good performance in terms of intuitive visual experience and screen display.

As before, the main body of the watch case is still made of metal, with champagne gold color and glossy finish. In actuality, its gold color is relatively light, not obtrusive, and more textured. It should be noted that this time Huawei Watch GT2 42mm has been updated with two new colors at once. In addition to the chestnut red version we got, there is also frost white. Both cases are champagne gold.

The most obvious difference is the strap. In terms of materials, the new watch strap adds a leather strap design to the original fluororubber strap. The chestnut red version has a dark brown strap, and the frost white version has a white strap. As for which one looks better, again, everyone can choose according to their own preferences.

By the way, the fluororubber strap we mentioned above comes with the machine. In other words, there are two pairs of straps in the package list. You can choose according to your own needs. Match according to your preferences. The process of changing the watch strap is also relatively simple. Just press the metal buckle on the top to remove or install it directly. Even girls can easily complete it.

In terms of wearing comfort, according to official data, the measurements of the Huawei Watch GT2 42mm version are 41.8×41.8×9.4 mm, and the weight is controlled at 29 grams (not including the strap), which is very Lightweight and more suitable for girls to wear. Of course, if you want to buy it as a couple’s model, boys can consider the Magic Night Black version.

From a certain perspective, the overall appearance of a smart watch consists of two aspects. One is the hardware process design in the traditional sense, which cannot be modified once it leaves the factory; the other is the dial application. It is precisely because of the existence of various different dials that the playability of smart watches has been greatly improved.

Like many similar products currently on the market, Huawei Watch GT2 not only supports downloading your favorite watch face style directly from the watch face application market, but also can set pictures you take on your phone as watch faces. For the latter dial setting method, it also provides two different operation paths.

Everyone is familiar with the method of setting up by uploading the app, so I won’t go into details here. Let’s focus on its “one-touch dial change” function. Friends who are familiar with Huawei mobile phones or laptop products should be familiar with this function. It can transfer pictures from the mobile phone to the PC very quickly.

The one-touch dial change supported by Huawei Watch GT2 is essentially used to transfer pictures to and from mobile phones, but it goes one step further on the basis of transmission. Specifically, using the one-touch dial change function, you can directly set the photos in the mobile phone album (up to 5 photos can be selected at the same time) as the dial without going through the sports and health app, which is very convenient. One thing to note is that this function can only be used with Huawei phones.

Focus on the battery life part. According to the official statement, wear it 24 hours a day with your heart rate always on, use scientific sleep at night, exercise for an average of 90 minutes a week (GPS is on), turn on message notifications (50 text messages, 3 alarms a day), turn on the screen 200 times a day, and cooperate with Bluetooth every week When playing music on headphones for 30 minutes, Huawei Watch GT2 can achieve a week's battery life.

From my personal actual use experience, it can last for about 5 to 6 days when fully charged. Of course, there are many factors that affect battery life. Everyone's usage habits are different, and the final results will be very different. It is difficult to give a more accurate number, so it can be used as a reference.

Having said that, among all smart watches, the battery life of Huawei Watch GT2 is obviously one of the best. There are two main "contributors" behind this. One is that the new intelligent power-saving algorithm 2.0 mode can better allocate energy consumption, and the other is that it is equipped with Huawei's self-developed Kirin A1 chip.

Let’s talk a little more about this chip. According to Huawei’s public information, it integrates an advanced Bluetooth processing unit, a more powerful audio processing unit, an ultra-low-power application processor and a separate power supply. Management unit, on the basis of lower power consumption, Bluetooth transmission speed, connection range and anti-interference ability are better than the previous generation products.

Sports function and health monitoring capabilities are the two core directions of wearable devices such as smart bracelets and smart watches, and they are also important reasons why many people choose to buy them. Based on previous generations of products, Huawei Watch GT2 has also made many new attempts in sports and health monitoring.

The first is the sports part. Based on the original 15 professional sports modes, 85 custom sports records will be added later through version upgrades. In other words, this product supports The number of sports types will reach an exaggerated 100, and this is also one of the smart watches with the most rich functions.

Among them, the professional sports mode includes 8 outdoor sports such as running, cycling, and mountain climbing, and 7 indoor sports such as walking and pool swimming. The 85 custom sports records include parkour, hip-hop, and skateboarding. , rock climbing and other extreme sports, leisure, fitness, water sports, ball games, ice and snow sports, six major sports types. In addition to recording more detailed sports data, it can also provide course guidance, which is very attractive to people who love sports. Powerful.

Health monitoring function has always been the strength of Huawei smart watches, and Huawei Watch GT2 also continues this tradition. It uses the new TruSeen 3.5 heart rate monitoring technology, and combined with related algorithms, it can well determine health risks such as premature beats.

At the same time, it can also achieve 24-hour dynamic heart rate monitoring, and supports real-time heart rate monitoring during swimming and reminders for excessively high or low static heart rate in daily life. In addition, Huawei has achieved non-visible light measurement for the first time on this product, so you no longer have to worry about the watch "keeps flashing" at night.

For heart health, Huawei Watch GT series has participated in the health research of 301 Hospital a long time ago, and now the heart health research of 301 Hospital has made new progress. Huawei Watch GT2 adds a new "atrial fibrillation risk prediction" function to the original "arrhythmia detection" function. For users with a history of atrial fibrillation, it can predict the risk of future atrial fibrillation attacks in real time and provide early warning. Unfortunately, because we got the watch relatively early, this function was not yet online at that time, but support will be updated as the product goes on sale.

In addition to the atrial fibrillation risk prediction function, it also has an ability that female users will like very much. It can record the menstrual period data of female users. After inputting relevant personal data, the watch can give corresponding menstrual period predictions and reminders, which is very practical (it will be launched later through system updates).

The previous sleep monitoring function on Huawei smart watches is also retained. It is equipped with HUAWEI TruSleep sleep detection technology, which can determine your sleep status and identify problems including difficulty falling asleep, shallow sleep, and easy sleep at night. There are 6 types of sleep problems including waking up, etc. For various sleep problems, it will give relevant suggestions and solutions to help you improve your sleep quality.

On Huawei Watch GT2, we also found the blood oxygen saturation measurement function (supporting single measurement), which can detect blood oxygen saturation anytime and anywhere. Blood oxygen saturation is a measure of the blood's ability to carry and transport oxygen, and is also an important physiological parameter of respiratory circulation. When the blood oxygen saturation is lower than the normal standard, it is simply called "hypoxia". In severe cases, cardiac arrest may occur.

This function is more useful for many busy office workers. Since many people often stay up late, it is easy to attribute symptoms such as lack of energy, dizziness or rapid heartbeat to lack of sleep, and often ignore blood oxygen. Regarding the factor of saturation, Huawei Watch GT2 can easily prevent this problem.

In addition to the ones we mentioned above, Huawei Watch GT2 also supports other functions such as NFC access cards, bus cards, and Alipay mobile payment.

Of course, the arrival of two new colors, chestnut red and frosty white, also provides everyone with greater options when purchasing. In terms of price, Huawei Watch GT2 (42mm) chestnut red and frosty white versions are both 1,588 yuan. Pre-sales will start on April 8 and will be officially launched on April 15.
