Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro is a smartwatch greatest hits | Digital Trends

The Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro is a new product, but at the same time, it manages to feel like a “greatest hits” model in Huawei’s smartwatch range. It’s not drastically different to the Watch GT 3 in terms of technology, and it has styling which harks back to the Watch GT 2 Pro and takes plenty from the Watch GT 2 Porsche Design smartwatch. Plus, it has the new health tech that made the Watch GT Runner special.

Interestingly, I was also sent the smaller 43mm version of the Watch GT 3 Pro to see. Huawei says this is designed for women, and sure enough, there’s a scalloped bezel and some gold accents instead of the hard, sharp lines of the 46mm model. It has a 1.32-inch screen but is dramatically different in style. The unusual all-ceramic case and bracelet design is fantastic and really sets it apart from other smartwatches.

What’s new inside? What makes the Watch GT 3 Pro pro? The major change comes with the heart rate sensor array on the back of the watch. It has been upgraded to feature eight photodiodes and uses the TruSeen 5.0+ system with improved heart rate monitoring, which we recently saw on the Watch GT Runner. There’s also the same AI software onboard to help clean up the signal when measuring heart rate in difficult situations.

The Watch GT 3 Pro brings what made the Watch GT Runner interesting into a less sporty design, but it’s questionable whether this makes it truly “Pro,” or significantly different from the regular Watch GT 3 due to the inactive ECG feature. If the Watch GT 3 Pro’s design is a greatest hits of Huawei smartwatches, the software is the greatest hits version of Google’s WearOS and Apple’s WatchOS. It can’t match the wonderful simplicity and power of WatchOS, but it’s more pleasurable and logical to use than WearOS.
