With the Huawei watch GT 4, launched last September, the Chinese manufacturer wants to once again demonstrate to the world how much it is a leader in the wearables sector. But is this still the case? Here are 3 good reasons why we believe this statement.
A more impressive design
Huawei has always attached great importance to the design and quality of the materials of its products. With this watch GT 4, the brand brings a new impetus to its smartwatches by combining technology and fashion. Indeed, the smartwatch comes with a more beautiful design, but which reminds us of traditional watches. The watch is available in 41 mm and 46 mm formats, which differ in terms of style and autonomy. At first glance, the smaller one exudes elegance with a gold and stainless steel Milanese bracelet. The larger one, on the other hand, has a more robust and sporty design.
The build quality of the case seems to be of excellent quality. The watch is adorned with a circular OLED display of 1,43 inches for the larger version and 1.32 inches for the 41 mm model. The screen with a resolution of 466 x 466 pixels is exceptionally sharp and sufficiently bright, even in direct sunlight. The smartwatch has an IP68 certification and can withstand immersion up to 50 meters deep. It is compatible with both Android and iOS.
High-tech fitness and health systems
In addition to the workmanship and design, the Huawei Watch GT 4 cuts a fine figure in terms of sports and fitness. You will find countless training profiles for all kinds of sports. The device also has a new TrueSeen 5.5+ sensor system, which includes SpO2, skin temperature sensor or continuous heart rate sensor. Other sensors such as barometer, magnetometer, accelerometer and gyroscope also enable the creation of an altitude profile for outdoor sports.
What is also appreciable is the TrueSleep 3.0 function that analyzes sleep and monitors breathing during sleep. The watch also allows tracking of women's menstrual cycle. As for the new Stay fit application, it allows advanced calorie management. Another new feature of the GT 4 is the Nutrition Log panel, which can be useful for anyone who likes to monitor their diet.
Complete hardware, software and features
First, the Huawei watch GT 4 has a powerful ARM Cortex-M processor and 2 GB of internal memory. The smartwatch works quickly and performs all tasks perfectly. Also, the Watch GT 4 has both a microphone and high-quality built-in speakers. You can use it to listen to music, receive and make calls. Connectivity is via Bluetooth 5.2 and it is possible to make contactless payments with the NFC chip.
The HarmonyOS 4 operating system is very intuitive. Simply slide your finger on the screen to scroll through the interface and adjust the volume. Pressing the crown gives you access to the operating system. The 524mAh battery guarantees excellent autonomy and can last up to 10 days with atypical use. Recharging is done using the included round magnetic charger, which takes just over an hour.
