Huawei Watch Fit review: a top fitness tracker with smartwatch looks

The Huawei Watch Fit is a budget-friendly fitness tracker offering a 1.64-inch AMOLED screen and 10-day battery life, which competitors like the Apple Watch SE and Fitbit Versa 3 find difficult to match at its price point. Key features include built-in GPS for phone-free tracking, an automatic brightness sensor, and on-wrist, animated, guided workouts. Despite the high-end display, the device lacks an altimeter for tracking elevation and the screen has a low refresh rate that makes animations appear less smooth. Furthermore, the device cannot support third-party apps or NFC payments. Fit&Well

Huawei Watch Fit 2 Review: An affordable smartwatch that sets the bar very high

The Huawei Watch Fit 2 acts as a hybrid device bridging fitness trackers and smartwatches, featuring a 1.74-inch AMOLED display and HarmonyOS for improved functionality. Key advantages include Bluetooth calling, standalone music playback, 97 workout modes with animated coaching, and accurate GPS/health tracking. Cons identified include a proprietary strap system on the Active model and limited third-party app selection in the AppGallery. While battery life reaches up to 10 days, this decreases with heavy usage or the always-on display enabled. Further limitations exist for iOS users, who miss out on specific features like music sync. Nevertheless, the device is praised for its premium design and value, serving as a strong competitor in its segment.

Huawei Watch Fit Review: The missing hybrid

The Huawei Watch Fit is a lightweight hybrid device featuring a vibrant 1.64-inch AMOLED display and a comfortable design ideal for all-day wear. It acts as a versatile tracker with built-in GPS, 24/7 health monitoring, and unique animated on-screen workouts, with battery life lasting 7 to 10 days. However, notable limitations include an inability to reply to notifications, no NFC for payments, and a closed ecosystem that restricts third-party app syncing.

HUAWEI WATCH FIT Review - Andrea Galeazzi

Andrea Galeazzi defines the Huawei Watch Fit as a "best buy" hybrid, highlighting its lightweight 21-gram design and high-quality 1.64-inch AMOLED display. Key features include 12 animated on-screen "Quick-Workout" courses, along with GPS, SpO2 monitoring, and a 10-day battery life. Despite these strengths, the device lacks a speaker/microphone for calls and cannot reply to notifications, with a limited Always-On Display.

Summary of the review

Huawei Watch Fit review: stylish smartwatch for athletes

The Huawei Watch Fit is a hybrid device featuring a 1.64-inch AMOLED display, offering a comfortable design for all-day wear with a finicky strap mechanism. It stands out for its 96 workout modes, built-in GPS, and unique on-screen animations, though heart rate tracking can be inconsistent during high-intensity workouts. Despite a long 7-to-10-day battery life, the Lite OS limits functionality by excluding third-party apps, NFC payments, and direct notification replies.
