With the Watch GT 5 and Watch GT 5 Pro series, Huawei has once again stepped into the forefront of the sports smartwatch market. Although both devices share the same DNA, they offer different features to suit different needs. Let's take a closer look at what each of them brings.

Both Huawei Watch GT 5 watches are quite similar in design, with slight differences. Watch GT 5 Pro is a more "premium" device, as it has a titanium and ceramic frame, which gives it a more robust and elegant look. The standard Huawei Watch GT 5 has a stainless steel frame, which is a solid choice, but a little less prestigious than the Pro model. Both watches have AMOLED a screen with a resolution of 466 x 466, which allows a clear display even in sunlight, and an always-on screen option.

Health and sports tracking

When it comes to sensors and health monitoring features, both watches use the Huawei TruSense system to measure heart rate, SpO2 (blood oxygen), and track menstrual cycles. But this is where the Huawei Watch GT 5 Pro shines with ECG (electrocardiogram) support, allowing for more accurate tracking of heart health. The Pro version is also equipped with the improved Sunflower GPS system, which means greater accuracy when tracking your location while running or cycling.

Battery and performance

Both devices have exceptional battery life, which is a traditional feature of the GT series. The Watch GT 5 lasts about 14 days on a single charge, which is impressive for a smartwatch, while the GT 5 Pro lasts up to 20 days thanks to more features and a stronger battery. Both also have the option of wireless charging.

Smart features

If you're looking for a full-featured smartwatch, you might be a little disappointed. Both watches have basic smart features like notifications, Bluetooth calls, and music playback, but lack support for LTE, contactless payments (except in China), and some other advanced apps that competing smartwatches offer. GT 5 Pro is primarily aimed at monitoring physical activities, so it will suit sports enthusiasts better.

We praise

  1. Fitness and health tracking: TruSense brings advanced tracking of heart rate, blood oxygen saturation and respiration. Thanks to improved sensors, monitoring is more accurate, even in difficult conditions, such as higher heart rates or colder environments.
  2. Battery that lasts and lasts: One of the biggest advantages of this watch is the battery, which in normal use lasts up to 14 days, and for Pro models up to 10 days by actively recording body signs. So you can say goodbye to daily charging.
  3. Accurate GPS and sports programs: With a new one Sunflower system location tracking will be even more accurate, which is great for those who like to run or cycle in nature. The Pro model offers even more features, such as advanced golf and diving tracking.

Conclusion

If you are looking for a stylish, powerful and sporty smartwatch with advanced health features, the Watch GT 5 Pro is the right choice. But if you want a more affordable watch with most of the key features, the Watch GT 5 will more than meet your needs.
