Huawei Watch - User Reviews

  • Main problems are rubbish charger - takes ages to get it to sit right to enable charge and the watch faces "burn" into the screen! I have a pinky residue and even slight ghosting of numbers. Sent my first one back and Huawei replaced without question. Sadly, the second watch also got the faces "burned" in again. Battery has deteriorated too. Have to charge more than once a day now. Thinking it is time for a change...Samsung Galaxy Watch looks favourite

  • This is still the best WearOS smartwatch you can get, even the new 5th generation Fossil smartwatches are thicker, wider & have thick bezels. Companies add better internal specs but go backwards on the actual watch design.

  • it would have been better if it has a sleeping senor like gear 3 samsung

  • from where did you bought that watch?

  • I just bought the used one from Internet. It is beautiful and it was surprising that I could answer the calls directly from the watch. I think if the one who sold it to me knew about this, he would prefer to keep it :)

  • Is the speaker level is higher after upgrade d io 2.0 wearos comparison with gear S3 for example? Because I intend to by it

  • don't work

  • Still the best looking & thinnest android smartwatches with a hr. Better still lasts over a day charge it while in shower & fully charges in 40 minutes.

  • A question for those who used this watch 2+ years, how is the battery life after more than 2 years of usage? I bought the gold version and really like it, very good until now. I would like to use this watch 4-5 years since is all what I need from a smart watch and like I said I like the design very much. The problem is, the battery will still be usable after 4 years? should I buy a battery for it soon to be able to replace the battery in watch at a moment? or I will stil find batteries for it in 3-4 years? I mean, a watch is something that you want to have after years, but this smart-watches will get broken due to batteries that will get broken after a time...

  • How can change it Chinese to English pls?

  • Yes

  • does this updated to wear 2.0? anyone tried how long it will last in just watch mode always on is off and not paired in phone wifi off? or the longest you can achieve before charging it.

  • no

  • Is it work with IOS???

  • Does it sim card..

  • How do i upgrade my system to marshmalow

  • Hi sir. This smart watch work with opo f 3 phon and can i reply to my call with watch speacker

  • I just got new OTA update containing October security patch with some other minor changes... nice surprise as i thought software support had already ended!

  • just a warning for would be buyers for Huawei Watch or future Huawei products. I own this watch, in fact, my family members and I owns 5 of them, my watch got water into it and part of my screen is not usable though i've never dropped the watch, my brother's screen is broken, my mom's motherboard is spoilt. the other 2 watches are still surviving. aesthetically beautiful no doubt but the watch is faulty, we may be unlucky but the biggest problem with the watch is that it is irreparable. i am from Malaysia and Huawei Malaysia does not repair the watch, it only replaces it when it is still under warranty. read that Huawei UK is the same, after the warranty is gone, u r on ur own! we r trying to DIY fixing the watch but truth be told, spare parts r hard to come by, especially for the screen. just a note of advice for would be Huawei owners, check on the warranty and repairability b4 committing cuz Huawei dont give a dime after ur warranty is done!

  • got it a few days ago for £180 on amazon, put twrp on it and installed my main apps via apks, and it works great, must get.

  • How is the watch after the update? Does it have any problem or is better?

  • I got the update the same day i bought the watch 18. mai 2017

  • I have got it in Mumbai (India) just yesterday(12th May, 2017)

  • I don't think there's anyone who has received it yet. Huawei is oddly silent about when the update begins to roll out. They said that a bug was found during the final testing and about week later they said bug is now fixed and update should be arriving very soon. My guess is end of April / early May.

  • Did anyone get the update?

  • I've read a tweet where Huawei announced that 2.0 update will begin to roll out end of March... i really hope so. It has already been delayed enough.

  • nope

  • Is there anyone who has already received Android Wear 2.0 update? Mine is still on 1.5 (build number M9E42C).

  • i assure you bro it have a touchscreen feature and it also have 40 cool interfaces go for it :)

  • this watch have a touch screen facility :)

  • Yes, it does have a touchscreen and can answer phone calls from it. Check the videos on YouTube.

  • you serious?! it's saying capacitive touchscreen and how possibly coud it be without touchscreen??!?!?!?!

  • Hi! Did you get an answer to this question?

  • Hi, I am planning to buy this watch. Can you please confirm me few doubts? This watch does have a calling feature and also has touchscreen right? There are no details about this online. Infact on some retailer websites it is mentioned it does not have touchscreen or calling feature. I saw someone having it and also making a call through it.

  • Very excellent watch. I love it heaps. The only drawback I have found is that when the screen is in dim mode it is difficult to read in direct sunlight. Shading the watch with your other hand is enough to make it easy to read.

  • this watch is the best , never felt the satisfaction from samsung or apple watches

  • i want to is items

  • anyone tested this watch for sometime to tell the issues he faced and any drawbacks

  • Watch was very amazing and i just loved it but only for first 2 months. After that it started slowing down, charger started troubling me, few marks came on watch just by cleaning it with normal cloth. Main problem started when it's charger stopped working and in 3re months i am watch less even after buying one of the costly watch in its segment. Amazingly when i went to service centre and that two 3re of them i was told they don't service the watch. When i called the customer care they said we don't have any information on it. One of them told me Huawei don't make watches we make phones. One customer care person suggested me to email the issue and the reply i got was that your concern is forwarded to concerned department so we will get back to you soon. 4 days over no reply.

  • No NFC. Source: I have one, and tried holding it to my phone to pair it, to no avail.

  • Does it have NFC?

  • Swipe from top down and swipe from right to left and select always on.

  • Make a software update and you will all the features.

  • yes i has the option.

  • How do i get my selected watch face to always show, instead of going into a power saving mode?

  • mine has no speaker, microphone and vibrate only

  • Hi, can i answer a call straight from the watch?? Does this watch have both microphone and speaker to speak and hear directly from the watch??

  • thats because we have smartwatches which support sim cards and support gsm and 3g as well so gsm aena writing it so you wont be confused about that

  • This watch(Huawei)battary back up is very poor. so plz as soon as possible

  • This is not a GSM device, it will not work on any GSM network worldwide. What does it means? In huwai official side they are not talking about gsm or cdma device then why gsmarena saying this ?? Please reply

  • No, all phones that would support a smart watch

  • It connects with Android and iOS devices. I've had it connected to my Z5 Premium and currently have it connected to my iPhone 6S Plus. Awesome tech - just switch off Always On Screen for better battery life!

  • Its connect only with huawei sets

  • Is this watch best and looks good over gear s2 classic (Platinum)... Advice to choose between, please.

  • My mobile is I Phone , and I already connected Huawei Watch to the phone by using Android Wear Application , and I receive all the notifications on the watch. Is this update allow to receive calls on the watch direct even my mobile is I Phone ?

  • I bought the watch from China but going to use this outside China. After several Factory re-set I can't change the language to English. Can someone help me how I can change the language? Under settings button, I can't see any English option.

  • I brought my new Huwaei watch in Jan 2016..the only reason i chose Huwaei against all other gear options is simply bcoz of the look..when i bought the set it wudnt let me make a call or receive a call on watch..but today it had a software update and since then.i can make and receive call on my watch as well. Am pretty happy with the set and its an awesome gadget to have must say..

  • You do. Use a black background for always on display and get wonderful battery life.

  • who needs oled screen on a smartwatch?!

  • Can we dial or receive a call from watch.? Means can listen or talk without using phone or bluetooth headset?

  • dears any one test watch with any Bluetooth headphone device ( does two devices connected and working in same time with android mobiles ) ? please advice with mobile model

  • I get the new update now use the speaker on the smart watch I didn't now that it have a speaker !!!!

  • when will this get marshmallow update?

  • i just bought it yesterday in Germany at 349 euros, with black letter. at the moment is great, the screen is very nice

  • Best thing is it looks like a classic watch while offering a lot more. I have received a lot of complements wearing it and it feels great on the wrist as well. A huge variety of watchfaces to match your style and make customization options as well. Of course there are some problems as well. The screen surface is two shiny and makes the direct daylight visibility very poor. Notification delays are quite frequent. Sometimes I cancel a call on my phone but the watch keeps showing incoming call for another 10 seconds. The screen gets fingerprints which look very untidy when the screen is in ambient mode. I preferred it over the Samsung Gear S2 because of Android Wear platform but i would love to see Huawei Watch (and Android Wear) adopting Gear S2 like rotating bezel and limiting the Touch screen based interactions.

  • right but those watches do not need to charge their battery daily. the smart watches are useless for now. 24 hours battery? it is a joke to keep in mind that you need to charge your watch too. :) a watch is something you need to count regardless of whether, location, etc. maybe you are in a desert or a place where you don't have electricity.... That's why I am saying that the smart watches have no chance until they will not manage the battery problem.

  • No Ringer Active..Dealer said upcoming update you can answer phone through watch..still waiting for update ...and i cannot fix the image on it ....waiting for new update....but i like the design very good and battery life..........................................

  • Best design compare to other smar watch

  • cool and stylish

  • I have had this smartwatch since release day. It tells the time and I can do simple tasks on it. Quite a bit better than my old watch.

  • What a cool and nice watch !

  • Speaker not active. No idea why?

  • its 1.4" dude... its a watch not a cell fon

  • The problem is that the price is little bit high

  • To be completely honest, I only wanted smart watch for notifications when I am in a noisy environment and cant hear my phone ring. I am also in need of a watch, something nice, but with all due respect, we as people cant expect much from a watch; when I see persons buying other watches just to tell the time for over $1500.

  • 4.2" LOL! Put a wrist band on your smartphone and use it as a watch.

  • Try LG Watch Urbane, it can take/make phone calls and better looks than Gear S.

  • Just received my Watch and honestly its amazing and everyone loved how it looks, but for me it was more than that,,after I order it I found out that you can't take phone calls and because of that I'm going to sale it to a friend who just need the look and I will be back to my Gear S.

  • This small experimental watches are disguesting and useless joke that i must have my phone with me to! I want a smart watch_phone at list 4.2.inch edged screen full phone camera and internet functions, edge clock and notifications.

  • I wonder if you'll be able to take calls on this when Android Wear releases the update for this feature, as it'll soon be doing to drive the LG Urbane 2.

  • pretty samn sweet watch good for apple and android :)

  • so expensive

  • Lenovo will soon introduce their watch at $150. Wait for it.
