Huawei smartwatch lineup consists of different variants but the Watch GT 2 series is the one that you can’t forget. It helped Huawei to scale up efforts in the global smart wearable market.
It’s the evolution that kicked in various new features to the successor such as SpO2 blood oxygen level measurement, Sleep Monitoring, stress measurement, better heart rate monitoring, and more.
Other than that, the Watch offers sports modes to keep you ready for any track or activity. Talking about the features, Huawei Watch GT 2 is the first to support Bluetooth calling, in-device Music, Message Notification, TrueSleep 2.0 sleep tracking, and TruRelax pressure monitoring.
Yes, Huawei can no longer print chipsets but it was the first smartwatch to be powered by a Kirin A1 chip. It is the first processor designed by HiSilicon for smart wearables and the first to use in Huawei Watch GT 2.
On the other side, Huawei Watch GT 2 comes in different sizes and aesthetics that fit everyone’s style. It has three 46mm variants including Sport, Classic, and Elite Edition. While there’s only one 42mm sport edition.
The smartwatch follows a round screen design that has an AMOLED panel and full-color image quality. The touchscreen support slide and gestures actions.
Talking about the battery, Huawei Watch GT 2 smartwatch could ramp up the battery for up to 2 weeks, and that’s when Huawei raged competition in the smartwatch market.
It also surprised consumers how a smartwatch could support such battery backup while offering a wide range of functionalities.
What has changed?
We’re about to enter the fourth year of the Huawei Watch GT 2 smartwatch launch. The watch has now become special for its owners in 2022 and there are some wonderful thoughts of yours that you may want to share with us.
So, what has changed for you since then? Do let us know via the tweet linked below.

Huawei has started to rollout HarmonyOS 3 for Huawei Watch 3 and Watch 3 Pro users in the global market, which comes with a big changelog packed with lots of features.
To be mentioned, Huawei Watch 3 series has been the first to get HarmonyOS 3 features in China, after its launch in June 2022.
To be mentioned, the rollout is currently spotted rolling out in limited markets. Therefore, it’ll take some time to expand to all of the Huawei Watch 3 series users.
If you want to inform us about the rollout do share information at screenshots@huaweicentral.com.
Without further ado, let’s check HarmonyOS 3 changelog for the global Huawei Watch 3 series.
The update package is large, and the update will take a long time. Please ensure that the battery level of your watch is greater than 65% before proceeding with the update. Dear valued user, this update introduces HarmonyOS 3.
HarmonyOS is a continually improving operating system, which strives to keep your device at the cutting-edge with zero hassle. This update adds the Super Link feature on the watch face screen, so that you can connect your watch to your HUAWEI phone and Bluetooth earphones, with just a
swipe onscreen. The feature’s smart capabilities have been further enhanced, and the fitness
collaboration capabilities have been further improved. The update also introduces a number of lifestyle features.
[Super Link]
Adds the Super Link feature on the watch face screen, so that you can connect your watch to
your HUAWEI phone and Bluetooth earphones, with just a swipe onscreen. The feature’s smart
capabilities have been further enhanced. (Supported device models are subject to actual
product specifications.)
[Professional Fitness]
- Once Always On Display (AOD) is enabled, the screen will remain on during workouts, making it easier to view real-time fitness data. Adds the Auto-pause switch. Once this
feature is enabled (by going to Settings Workout settings > Auto-pause), your watch will automatically pause or resume a workout based on your fitness status. - Supports workout linking, which allows you to pause, resume, or end phone workout courses from your watch.
[Assistant]
- Adds the Auto switch to the Sleep app, which can be accessed by swiping up on the app
screen and touching Sleep settings. Enabling this feature allows your watch to enter and
exit sleep mode based on your real time sleep status, or at set times. Enables you to switch between audio devices with greater ease during eSIM calls.
[Watch Face]
- Adds a kaleidoscope watch face, which allows you to set a personalized watch face image
by selecting your own photos, and produces a kaleidoscopic effect when you rotate the watch
crown.
[System]
- Allows you to reply to messages from some third-party apps on your watch’s notification
panel (after you connect your watch to an Android phone). - Optimizes Bluetooth connections, and applies a new status icon.
Note:
- For a better user experience, you are advised to update the HUAWEI Health app to the latest version in AppGallery first.
- Ensure the network remains connected during the update. If the update fails, try again.
- Updating the wearable device may take some time. Please wait for the update process
on the device to finish. The device will then automatically restart. - If you encounter any issues when using the device, please call the Huawei customer service hotline or visit a Huawei customer service center for assistance.

China’s intellectual property office has recently published a patent for a Huawei tech that could actually detect lungs infection using SpO2 blood oxygen level measurement.
On December 30, 2022, the patent application with CN115530768A is labeled as “a detection method and related equipment” published. While it was applied on June 29, 2021. The patent description shows that this entire concept includes both device and a method to conduct the detection process.
However, the patent prioritizes the detection process. In order to do so, a first device sends information to a second device. The information contains the physiological specifications of the information observed by the second electronic device.
The second device then matches the physiological specs information with pre-installed conditions. It further inspects additional parameters such as audio information. The method then inspects the physiological information sent by the second device based on the first information.
It’s confusing, right? Let’s break it down in simple terms.
It’s noted that the method double-checks the information, observed and amplified by the second device. While it also inspects the information from the second device and compares it with the inputs that have been transferred by the first device.
The function uses both devices and checks the information back and forth to match with a pre-set mode. This helps to come up with a result to show on the screen.
According to the details, the screen of the device will show results including Blood oxygen saturation, respiratory rate, body temperature, heart rate, and more. In the patent, these results are shown on a smartphone device.
Huawei says the aim of such technology will allow users to easily detect infection risk in the respiratory system in the lungs. While it ensures the operations operate while using the lowest power of the device.
To be mentioned, Huawei has revealed, when it will go in production but we’ll keep you posted.
What is the respiratory system?
The respiratory system is the network of organs and tissues that help you breathe. It includes your airways, lungs, and blood vessels. The muscles that power your lungs are also part of the respiratory system. These parts work together to move oxygen throughout the body and clean out waste gases like carbon dioxide.
Huawei Smartwatches and Smart Bands already had SpO2 technology for a long time now and it has been well received by consumers for its accurate readings.
What is SpO2?
The device will automatically measure and record your SpO2 when it detects that you are still. Touch the Low SpO2 alert to set the lower limit of your SpO2 for you to receive an alert when you are not asleep.

Users Jackob wrote “Have it since Christmas 2020, it’s working flawlessly, no degradation in display, battery after every-day use for 2 years. I miss some functionality, and the watch face market is not great, but it’s a nice watch after all. Not worth the 150 I bought it for though…”
Stefan wrote “I have a GT2 Pro, only thing that annoys me is that all my calls get put to the watch if I have a bluetooth headset connected even if I turn off calls for the watch. Have to manually put the call to my headset every time. Had this problem both on my Oneplus 9 and Samsung s22+”
Brancatus wrote “Very disappointed that the heart rate monitor and workout data are not accessible by third party apps. For this reason alone will not be buying another Huawei. Otherwise all is fine after 2+ years apart from the gold finish that is peeling off.”
Carlos: “My gt2 does not respond when touching the screen.”
Brian: “Watch face came away from the bezel as I was washing my hands??”
Gabriel Pelin: “Just replaced the battery and the motherboard for second time,hope that from now on will work properly.”
James Muia: “My Huawei GT 2 watch has never let me down.”
HendricoVW: “Been using the @Huawei GT 2 Classic for more than two years now and it still running perfect. This is really a great watch but could do with an update, maybe add some features like assistant, message replies, and an option to add more tiles perhaps. #Huawei #WatchGT2 #Smartwatch”
Einwod: “Everything worked fine for 18 months, then when I’m at sea level, it tells me in 2480m high. Apart from that, this is a fantastic watch. I now have Watch 3 active and the battery life on it sucks.”
Adam Bullied: “Bought for my wife for xmas 2020 for her to track her sleep. It wasn’t very good at that & she didn’t use it. I started wearing it and it’s been on my wrist since. I’ve taken it into the backcountry, tracked my workouts, and it’s my speakerphone of daily use. It’s a great watch.”
Zai Mykaels: “Lasted four months before constantly getting hot and charging to a max of 22%. Battery is a nightmare to get replaced.”
Frappedieros: “Watch is fine, but how about giving us a lap timer function and custom workouts ?”
Naseer Ahmed: “I have a gt 2e and working perfectly.”
Theo77: “I wished they uploaded the HR broadcasting option for gym equipment. There were rumors but it never happened.”
Rich Glover: “Being able to answer calls on my wrist is so much easier than pulling my phone out of my pocket. I have a voice recording of my late father’s voice downloaded to my GT2, which is a comfort to carry with me.”
ioannisgnk: “It’s not a good watch, always having issues with sensor, most of times I need to shake hard for it to open, and it’s not smart at all, it does what a fitband do with the only extra calling and playing music. Okay, it wasn’t that expensive like other watches but still..”
Nkosinathi Khumalo: “I loved this watch. So sad to see it do this… Until the battery dies.”

Ulaş Soysal: “It’s amazing, one of the latest updates absolutely refreshed the UI but I’m still mad at huawei for not adding App Support, I’d love a simple ass calculator tbh”
SpyV: “I have the gt2 pro from July 21 and still works flawlessly. Fantastic battery life, built quality and durability, no scratches.”
visage: “Still nice for everyday use. I’m still impressed by the battery duration comparing to an apple watch which costs tonnes of money. The disappointment comes from the fact that the watch screen somehow keeps some previous displayed image and on the watch face there’s a mixture.”
Danny: “My GT2 Pro is just excellent. Only thing is that last update was 6 months ago and it doesn’t seem to be scheduled for more. I hope Huawei won’t abandon this model and updates will keep coming.”
darko kmet: “Gave my away and got watch 3 pro. It was missing alot features so I wasnt really pleased with it… Everything was tageted only for gt2 pro…”
David Lunn: “My screen sometimes gets slow to work, turning it off and on usually fixes that, took the pin function off because of this problem, one time the battery died very quickly but a restart fixed the problem and seems good since, had to change from a Huawei phone to an iPhone no prob”
Lee Howard: “My Gt2 Pro never let’s me down, superb watch. I keep looking at other watches but the gt2 has just the functionality I need. Please keep supporting it in UK Huawei.”
JC Kotze: “I now have the Watch 3. Miss the fantastic battery life of the Gt2 Pro, but then, the 3’s ability to respond to messages is great.”
Mark Watson: “The vibration motor stopped working a year after purchase. Fixed under warranty. I’m a bit disappointed that 3rd app support never came to this watch. I find replying to messages very useful on my new pixel watch which you could never do with GT2. Still a nice design and screen”
alex wong: “Been use GT2 since 2020, free gift came along with Huawei Matebook 14 (during launch). Now battery still pretty good, no issue so far. One of best bang for bucks smartwatch in market, even now latest iteration often offer very good price value. Problem is won’t work well in GMS.”
cal brock: “My watch gets a lot of abuse, I wear it all the time, work, gym, fixing car or motorcycle and it still looks absolutely brand new!! Amazing really because I don’t take care of it!!! It’s amazing”
Jon Allen: “The touch screen is no longer responsive.”
Kieran L: “My GT2E still works like the day I bought it, doesn’t feel slow or outdated. Brilliant bit of kit still to this day.”
Paul: “One of my best buys ever!! Worth every pound. I would like more apps through the next update pls!!”

joshua abayomi k: “Trusleep isn’t working on my gt2 pro”
Tomasz Michalski: “My Huawei GT2e works still perfectly. I have no reason to buy an other watch! But I’m wearing the watch with care.”
Pierre van Rensburg: “Why does GT2e not get the new OS?”
Gerhard Eckert: “It worked for me flawlessly for 1.5 years. But in mid 2022 the digitizer started malfunctioning. After replacement of whole screen and frame it’s working as before.”
GoEfqSUej3fgBKP: “Works like on the first day.
The band broke once due to heavy use, but it got replaced very quickly”
Röger Vérèz: “The display just stopped working on the right place to stop me from pressing the tick button while pairing and so now the watch is obsolete and does not even show the right time.
So much for a smart watch”
Abdul Halim: “3 months ago the touch sensor glass of my GT2 stop working. Went Huawei service centre. They quote me the repair cost at S$135. I could get a new one for S$S30 more. Duh”
Mihnea Burada: “I have a Watch Gt 2 Pro and an Honor Magicwatch2 both have connectivity problems and software support has been plain terrible”
Raymond Warren: “Quite a few functions are not displaying , one dual time watch face very annoyingly states “ please set all SHORTCUT IS ON” when trying to set second time zone , and for the bloody life of me I can’t find out what the fcuk it means or how to bleeding reset . Got rid of Huawei”
These are just a few of the user experience shared by the Huawei Watch GT 2 users in the thread
