Sporty luxury

The Huawei Watch GT 5 Pro is best suited for folks who frequent golf courses and the ocean. Outside of those cases, only a few nice-to-have features separate the GT 5 Pro and non-pro models. While all the small nice-to-haves add up to a durable, premium smartwatch that's mostly a breeze to use, you've not getting them for free.

After spending the last few months with the Huawei Watch GT 5 Pro strapped to our wrist, it’s clear that Huawei’s wearable division isn’t resting on its laurels following the impressive Watch GT 4 series. The Watch GT 5 Pro continues the legacy of functional and stylish smartwatches from the Chinese tech company in most areas but misses out in a few others.

Is it the right watch for your wrist? Only you can know that but we’re here to help you figure it out.

The Watch GT 5 Pro is available in two sizes with two distinct styles each. The 42mm version is aimed at those with smaller wrists (120-190mm) and comes with either a white ceramic or fluoroelastomer strap while the 46mm version for the larger-wristed (140-210mm) ships with a sporty black fluoroelastomer strap or silver Titanium strap.

We tested the 46mm Titanium version and although our wrists are probably towards the smaller end of the scale, it didn’t take long to get used to what looks like a bulky smartwatch. That’s one upside to using Titanium for the body, it’s lighter than you’d think. What we couldn’t really get used to was the strap relieving us of our wrist hairs. Thankfully, Huawei has designed the GT 5 Pro to support its new quick-release straps alongside traditional quick-release spring bar straps.
