What we don't like about Huawei Watch GT 2 Pro

  • Lack of third-party app support due to the proprietary LiteOS.
  • No support for NFC contactless payments outside of China.
  • Limited notification interaction; users can read messages but cannot reply.

Verdict

The Huawei Watch GT 2 Pro is a premium smartwatch featuring a 1.39-inch AMOLED display (454 x 454 pixels) protected by sapphire glass, a titanium frame, and a skin-friendly ceramic back. Powered by the Kirin A1 chipset with 4GB of storage and 5ATM water resistance, it supports over 100 workout modes including professional skiing and golf tracking, alongside comprehensive health monitoring for heart rate (TruSeen 4.0+), SpO2, and sleep. Its primary strengths are a standout 14-day battery life, professional-grade build materials, and the convenience of Qi wireless charging. However, it is limited by a lack of third-party app support, no NFC mobile payment capabilities outside certain regions, and restricted functionality when paired with iOS devices.
