MEANINGFUL REFINEMENT
HWM Singapore|January 2025
Now I’ve been reviewing smartwatches and activity trackers for a long time, and the Watch GT 5 Pro is the first watch to actually get attention from my wife, complimenting its looks in the way of a classy wristwatch.
MEANINGFUL REFINEMENT

While there was only a single Watch GT 4 variant, the new Watch GT 5 series comes in Standard, Pro, and Ultimate editions. There are also two sizes (42mm/46mm) with different case designs and materials too. Huawei probably has the most comprehensive lineup of devices for a single product line. The difference between the regular GT 5 and GT 5 Pro is in its construction. The 46mm variant reviewed here has a titanium Alloy case, while the 42mm version features a nanocrystal ceramic case. Both come with sapphire glass screen and is the first device I know of to feature an enhanced IP69K water and dust resistance rating.

Now I’ve been reviewing smartwatches and activity trackers for a long time, and the Watch GT 5 Pro is the first watch to actually get attention from my wife, complimenting its looks in the way of a classy wristwatch. She normally doesn’t bat an eyelid with the rotating watches on my hand every few weeks. Not even the chunky Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra go an “Is that new?” from her.

The display itself remains the same as the Watch GT 4, which is a 1.43-inch fixed AMOLED. It’s not as advanced or as bright as the LPTO AMOLED on the Google Pixel Watch 3 for example, but it does its job well enough outdoors. However, core hardware has been overhauled.

My initial impression of the Pixel Watch 2 was that it felt like a round Fitbit Sense 2 running Wear OS. The tradeoff was losing iOS compatibility while still facing Fitbit’s paywall for advanced app features.
