The appearance is “lemongrass”, looks very close to a mechanical watch
True to the GT – “Grand Tourer” spirit of sports car models with comfortable interiors, Huawei continues to give the Watch GT 5 Pro a unique smartwatch style inherited from the GT 4 generation. With only a simple round face like most smartwatches today, the Chinese technology company has broken away with the angular lines on both sides, creating a strong, aggressive octagonal watch face.
On the watch face, Huawei also arranges a series of numbers according to the second and hour markers to increase the “danger”. Especially in the Watch GT 5 Pro 46mm Titanium version that I experienced in this article, the top and bottom halves are also a combination of blue and red, making this Huawei smartwatch model even more outstanding. Combined with a rotating knob on the side, a delicately crafted Titanium frame and strap, this smartwatch looks really close to high-end mechanical watches specialized for men.
With a watch face as large as 46mm, this GT 5 Pro 46mm version is aimed at people with large wrists, men with wrist sizes from 140-210 mm. Of course, stylish ladies can still wear this smartwatch if they want, but you will need to have a large enough wrist.
The included titanium strap has some metal eyes for you to adjust the width to fit your wrist. The adjustment is very simple because it uses a lever similar to many smartwatches today.
The 46mm version of GT 5 Pro Titan has 2 different colors for users to choose from: sport gray or classic silver, suitable for a variety of styles and preferences. Huawei also offers many different types of straps from rubber straps, leather straps to even metal straps so you can freely change. The connector on the strap uses a click type but is still compatible with the popular lever style on today’s smartwatches, so it can be easily removed and replaced with other material straps if desired.
The screen is bright, has good definition, and has Always On Display
The screen of the Watch GT 5 Pro 46mm Titanium uses AMOLED technology with a size of 1.43 inches, a resolution of 466 x 466 pixels, reaching a pixel density of 326 PPI, helping to display clearly, sharply, and with bright colors. , high contrast, deep black. The screen is large so observing content is quite comfortable, requiring little scrolling. It’s just a shame that this screen doesn’t have a double-tap feature to turn it on.
The brightness of the screen is enough to see well in bright sunlight without any problems. The screen has a sensor that automatically adjusts the light according to the environment, so you don’t need to manually adjust the brightness when going from home to the street, or when you’re in the shade or out in the hot sun.
This year, Huawei said it has equipped the Watch GT 5 Pro with super hard coating and water-resistant nano coating, and the watch has been rated IP69K, withstanding strong water flows with improved abrasion resistance and water resistance. advance. During the past week or so, I have been wearing it continuously every day, exercising, working, swimming, and running, and have not seen any scratches on the watch.
Huawei has always offered a wide variety of watch faces, and with the GT 5 Pro, this continues as you will have dozens of different watch face styles, from dials to hands, both free and Paid, suitable for many different usage situations, from going to the gym to going to work. Huawei claims to have up to 25,000 watch faces with a variety of styles from hands and dials on the Huawei Watch Face store to customize according to needs.
I haven’t been able to count to see if there are enough 25,000, but looking at the free watch faces section alone, there are countless options with many eye-catching, comfortable watch faces for you to change every day.
In addition to the available watch faces, you can use photos of your everyday outfits and portraits to personalize your watch face. This Huawei smartwatch also has the Always On Display (AOD) feature – Always on display – and will change with each different watch face so you can always see the time and date without having to pick up the watch or touch the screen. Of course, when AOD is turned on, battery life will be significantly affected. If you don’t need to check the time too often, you can turn this feature off because the response speed when lifting your hand of Watch GT 5 Pro is very fast.
