Of course, It did add value to my life. And don't make fun of Belly Dancing, I do that 3 times per week. Strong core, strong runner. :-) Great video as always.

I have had this watch for 3 months and I’m very impressed. I like the size , the rugged design. I like the fact that I can speak via the watch when taking a phone call, sound quality I clears. The screen display is bright and very cleat, no issues either health app ( sounds like you have an issue on your phone). Above all I like the fact that I can charge this watch knowing that it will last 4-5 days without having to recharge again, this the like of Apple and Samsung fall down badly on.

Thanks for the great video - as always. I love seeing the less mainstream watches. I think the Summit score mentioned earlier in the comments is a great idea. Keep up the great work!

I owned this watch for long time, I really like the look(marbel/white), I wear it 24/7, very comfortable and have everything I need, many times I was looking for new watch to replace honor gs pro but I don't see reason and I can't find enything I may like, they improve huawei app so there is no issues, great watch, i recommend for someone who looking for thought smartwatch, great review!!!

An idea: how about creating a scoring system for the watches you review. A ‘Summit Score’ of sorts for categories like build quality, comfort, display, battery life, features, accuracy, ecosystem compatibility and cost etc?

I have this watch in "Marl White". Awesome feature set for the price. Even though I dont have the app setting reset issues (I'm on Andoid), I agree with you on the lack of activity export/Strava link. At the moment I only use this watch as a casual watch, OR as a music player (paired with Galaxy Buds Pro) when I run in a safe run park (lasted ~5+hrs on my longest run). I really like this watch, if it had Strava link, it could have been my go to training watch.

During a workout you can press and hold one of the data fields on the watch screen, and change the info that is being displayed on that field.

Yes you can just tap the screen long press and change the screen , and regarding first page create account for huawei I guess it will solve the problem

Huawei on it's own was the show stopper for me as well. That said, it's a pretty cool watch. The app reset issue is odd, but feels like a quick fix. As well as the data export. Fix those things and you have what could be a serious contender. Especially for a watch that's

with everything on including fitness apps for swimming, taking calls, timer, constant connection with Bluetooth for weather, messages and more, minus gps, I got just a few hours under 22 days on a charge. More than happy with the battery life and the performance of this watch, and ease of use.

I ordered it , was excited about it when I realized it only works as a watch if its paired to the phone i sent it back . Cool watch , looks great feels awesome on my wrist but i wanted a smartwatch which works independently .

I didn’t even know about this one. I like that bright watch face.

Very good review! Though i also think: The couple of data migrations I ve done were never really perfect (Runtastic, Polar PT, Polar Flow, Garmin Connect) and probably most people wont mind having their data only in one place and wont take the pain of migrating anything (even if they change the "ecosystem"). A graphical extraction of the GPS/ heart rate data is definitely possible (for the comparison), even with a good accuracy (f.i. with a CAD-App)... but surely also extremely time-consuming...

Thanks for asking Huawei for get the data export to Strava. I own a GS Pro myself, its an awesome watch, but the lack of Strava its bad.

Haha, the app reset drives me crazy as well... I like Honor and actually tested and found the Honor Band 6 very accurate in running and at the pool. I Wish there was a way to export the data out of the app... great review, as always!

Thanks for the review! I have a question for you. I had a Huawei watch (the GT 2 pro I think), and it was a great watch. For the most part, the watch worked well, but there was one huge flaw for me. There was only one notification type. So, that means that a calendar notification and a text message both look like the same notification type. Additionally, if I missed a notification, there was no dot or anything to tell me there were notifications I hadn't read yet. And, to top it all off, I couldn't do anything with the notification other than clear it. I'm very used to being able to respond to a text message (even if it's just a prepared response), or delete an email from the message options. None of that was available. So, my question is, does this watch suffer from the same thing?

This would be my watch if it would sync to strava, but sadly not. Great review as always.

Was almost ready to order it until the no sync part came up....what are they thinking? Great review by the way...

Yes, you can customize the sport screen. Just touch and hold the screen!

Great video and subscribed to you. Do you know if you can disable the phone and message features on this watch. This watch is available for £110 in the UK which makes it more attractive to buy.

the whole point of amoled display is low power consumption relative to backlit displays. for as long as the graphics make use of black background

thank you, i will consider to buy it soon

In 2023 huawei health app is already able to sync with strava and some other apps

Awesome job! And tested the Huawei GT2 (similar sensor) and found the HR to be considerably off (44.9% accurate, so terrible)

Hi Buddy, I just came across your review 11 months later. Do you know if they managed to fix all of those issues you've mentioned in your summary? Good review btw!

Great review as always!!

Nice review mate, tnx. What watch face r u using there?

Great job again! Belly dancing is important to a sport watch 🤣🤣 that's had me rolling 🤣🤣

Interesting watch for sure. Some great features, but not being able to export is huge!

Hi, brought this watch in the UK, unable to connect to the honour health app, it says devise not support when scanning barcode off the watch screen. Any advice please 🙏🙏

Hope Huawei people watched your review and fix the data export issue. Currently using a basic honor device and having the same problem

Nice review Dave. I'm so glad you didn't belly dance for us in this. 😆

health sync now enables sync with strava google fit etc

Hey Mate. Good to see you with this watch review. How can you compare to epix 2 or venu 2 plus? I know thats just different device but battery life and price(140€) and.... Calling is a great watch for this Value. Curently for Daily use nwearing samsung gear s3 but battery life is drama. Sometimes 2.5 day. Very offtend happend me that battery was low after 15h.For sport i use cheap. Amazifit bip and also adidas running app. If i have pay about 1000$ for fenix or epix 2 without calling function like make me siick. I use many time at work or also. While playing tennis. Can leave my phone in a bag and easly olaying and calling without wrist close to my mouth. I ve Got also question about screen. Many fenix users Fall in love in epix screen (not for colors) it s easier to. Read on fully Sun besause sapphire Glass in light rays are reflected. Ps if you have gwałt syncs app is possible to. Export data to. Strava or other Service.. Thx again for brilliant review(like always). Best Regards.

Hello Seen both your videos, this one for the Honor watch gs Pro and the Amazfit Stratos 3 Since you had both reviewed separately could you make a video in comparison with each other. Would love to hear your take on it as I can't decide which one to get. Cheers!

Hi! Nice videos! Btw i wonder is there any maps? Like can i use these watches while cycling to watch where im on the map? Like with Google Maps on a smartphone

I may have missed you mentioning it but does it pair with external sensors?

I have the honor magic watch 2 as my smartwatch/semi-fitness tracker and I can say yes the music portion of it is only supported on Android devices. Matter fact alot of features for this watch is based off of Android devices. You ate very limited on what you can do on an apple device. You can store music on the watch and play it directly on the watch since it has a speaker and you can answer calls on the watch, just can't make outbound calls. You can also pair your ear buds with the watch but I have not tried this feature out yet since my daily driver is the forerunner 945. For customizations it is also very limited as most data charts/fields can not be edited/customized. The watch faces are limited as well but more options are on Android devices.

It's so cheap but old now is it worth it?

Exactly same sensors and software as the Huawei Watch GT2 (I’ve been wearing one since Feb/20). Unfortunately it doesn’t connect with anything else (Strava, etc) nor export .GPX or .TCX files. And it lacks some basic sports features such as set laps or intervals. And it also lacks connectivity with external sensors, and the interface with iOS is very poor. Hey Dave would you like to exchange your Coros Apex Pro with my Huawei GT2? Hehehe

This or a FR245 for hiking? Does the lack of the altimeter in the FR245 make a big difference, or it could be accurate anyway? Thanks!

Dave could u confirm if the gs pro have a lap button or anyway to mark laps during an activity?thanks!

Pretty Watch.Never heard about this one.Greate battery life,nice Design.think i will give away my Honor Magic Watch 2 to my dad and buy this one🤩

Biggest flaw is the terrible GPS connecting time. Can last up to 2 minutes or so.....even after having exchanged the CPU within the warranty no improvement.....

What you think about the stress tracker and compare it with the Venu 2

If I dont care about Strava. Would you buy this watch instead of a forerunner 245 for example? The garmin its like 150usd more in my country

Such a pity of the lack of connectivity with other applications. Huawei makes nice devices, but always with a lock in to their own ecosystem unfortuantely.

There's one thing I can't seem to find info on. Does this allow external sensors? External heart rate strap?

Once it´s a watch more into the "big size area", why comparing that just with 42mm watches? Sorry, this is a great review but I did not get the point with that comparison...

it's often the problem with those Chinese watches and fit bands (and i used few) - no support for other platforms. Xiaomi recently added strava support for Xiaomi Wear so maybe huawei will follow. As of now, imo, good HW is trapped by poor software.

Throwing the box is a new take on the DCR throw-the-watch move...

Hola,,, soy carlos de argentina y queria saber si este reloj puede bajar los track a algun mapa con imagenes satelitales, y no solo a un mapa con calles y rutas... gracias

Could you please tell me is it possible to connect HRM chest strap via Bluetooth with this smart watch?

My friend thank you very much for this excellent videos!!! If you have the possibility to connect with Strava do you propose this smart watch for a someone who don't want to give a lot of money!!! In Greece this model cost 150 Euro!!!!

so is the App Reset Setting STILL a problem?

Does this watch let you view any missed notifications during a workout? If you're jogging & miss a notification, can you see it without ending the workout?

Does the route back function works if you not doing any workout?

honor gs pro OR trex Pro forn an upgrade from my stratos 3?

Did you know now about accuracy of GPS and heart rate right now ?

It is compatible with HRM like Polar H10 and Garmin HRM Pro?

Wow, which brand doesn't support "find my phone"?! That would be a showstopper too :-P Battery life with always on amoled is really interesting. Based on the gps track, maybe it saves some energy by not taking gps measurements every second, but it is just a guess.

Did U try the app with android phone?

Can the watch receives notifications from iPhone?

Can this watch count the Calories that i burn throughout the day or while I'm doing a workout?

Helo, any feature sport for jumping jack?

Does anyone know how you actually put music on this watch?

This watch has a dial pad for making calls?

What’s your Strava????

Been using it for 4 months then sold and replaced with Fenix 6X... Not bad as a smartwatch, impressinve battery life, notifications, phone calls possible... But s**k as a sportswatch - no gpx export, no external platform sync. Waiting for Huawei support to deliver your fitness data (it is taking them usually 7 days or more) as zipped json files - that is far too little... Altimeter was not bad, GPS - mediocre. To sum up - nice as a budget watch for active people, but I'd never buy it again (rather would got Coros Pace2 or FR245 for that price)

Stravalink should work now

I dont have one hop on my gs pro?Can someone help me?

BlueTooth Phone calls working?

Whilst we are not at the Garmin/Suunto killer stage, it wont be long now ....

Both Xiaomi and Huaweii ignore Strava. I can't understand their CEO's actually think they can push their own platforms (which are not that good) and don't get it that a lot of customers from the Western Countries are not going to buy their watches simply because they are lacking a strava sync.

this or coros pace 2 or apex ?

I buyed one and the steps count is extremely innacurate. Reset the watch, uninstalled the Health app, nothing. Im in Brazil, buyed in Ali Express, called to Brazilian support and they can't help me, "Just because the watch dont was released here". Nevermore buy Huawei in my LIFE!

I got one for $4, pretty decent watch.

Thank for this video ! The amazfit is better than it If we compare with amazfit trex pro this is what i mean :) and i really feel good for bought amazfit trex pro at yesterday. I could not be patiently. 😅 But it was not surprise for me for now. I really never seen like you who make quality contents. Thanks, Greetings,

NFC available?

whens the next vid coming

Can you connect to strava now?

what? no bluetooth?

I have the watch, with android 11 I can't receive mail notifications on the watch even if I gave permission from the phone, because android 11 works with gmail, I use outlook and I also have mail and gmail is registered in outlook, I receive messages on the watch only from gmail on who don't use it, a big disappointment, I'm interested in the email messages that don't come on the watch. something else to tell you, the battery only lasts 7 days because if you buy the watch now, it's manufactured in 2022 and it's been in the box and the battery has depreciated let me tell you, I bought a watch on aliexpress in 2022 and the battery lasted 14 days, I bought another one in 2024 (now it costs 65 dollars) and the battery lasts 7 days, maybe someone knows why I don't receive notifications from yahoo mail on the watch from android 11

Vs trex pro??

"Μου λείπεις" στο αριστερό σου χέρι ? 😁

failure very slow gps lock

Huawei privacy concerns are the biggest show stopper for me. Shame, it's a looker
