Thanks to the Bluetooth calling feature of HUAWEI WATCH GT 2, you can make or receive calls during sports or when your hands are occupied.
Huawei Watch GT 2 review: VerdictThe Watch GT 2 has superb sports-tracking credentials for its price. As well as logging an impressive number of activities and offering handy insights into your workouts, stress, sleep, it'll emphatically outlast any WearOS device and the Apple Watch when it comes to battery life.
Your watch will display caller information whenever there is an incoming call on your phone, and you can answer or reject the call directly using your watch. Now you don't have to worry about missing any calls even when you aren't by your phone.
Other featuresOf course, the Watch GT 2 Pro isn't just a health and fitness tracker; it's a powerful smartwatch that offers many other great features. So, while the Watch GT 2 Pro doesn't offer blood pressure monitoring, it more than makes up for this by providing a wide range of other health and fitness features.
Huawei Watch 2: Respond to text messages and emailJust like with its own built-in call functionality, the Huawei Watch 2 lets you utilise its integrated 4G connectivity skills to reply to text messages, IMs and emails, even when you've left your phone at home.
There's no speaker or microphone in the 42mm GT 2, so you can't make and receive calls on it. As you can't install apps, you can't control your smart lights and other gadgets you might have at home.
Use HUAWEI WATCH GT 2 to play music on your connected devices and enjoy the smooth experience of changing songs on your watch screen. Enter the Devices interface on Health App, tap Music > Control phone music, then select Phone mode on your watch. Now, you can change music and adjust volume on your watch.
Finally, the watch is loaded with different sensors, including an optical heart rate monitor, gyroscope, accelerometer, and an air pressure sensor. GPS is also on board for location tracking. One big omission, however, is NFC, meaning you can't use Huawei Watch GT 2 to make contactless payments.
Huawei Watch GT 2: Heart rate accuracySuch readings seem to be 10-20 bpm off the mark most of the time. The effects of the predictive algorithm working behind the scenes are a little too visible. We'd still happily use the Huawei Watch GT 2 for weekly exercise, though.
HUAWEI Watch GT - GPS Smartwatch with 1.39" AMOLED Touchscreen, 2-Week Battery Life, 24/7 Continuous Heart Rate Tracking, Multiple Outdoor and Indoor Activities, 5ATM Waterproof, Black.
Battery life is certainly a strong point for the GT 2, as is its fitness tracking accuracy and value. However, between the lack of NFC, an app market, third-party app integration, and automatic workout-tracking, I don't think I can recommend this over the Fitbit Versa 3 as a “better” smartwatch.
5.0 out of 5 stars Huawei Watch GT - Excellent battery life and a very good fitness tracker. This watch is very good value, light and comfortable to wear. It seems very accurate at tracking steps, with or without the GPS (which locks on quickly).
Huawei Watch GT review: VerdictOverall the Huawei Watch GT is an impressive wearable. It looks the part, it's comfortable to wear, the screen looks great, activity tracking works well – and battery life is stunning. Its main limitation is app support.

Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2: Best Smartwatch For Android Users. If you own an Android smartphone, we think that the best smartwatch with a loudspeaker and calling functionality is the Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2. It is the closest thing to the Apple Watch you can get in the Android realm.
