Huawei's WatchGT3Pro pulls together much of what was great about previous models and adds a luxury design.
Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro MSRP $540.00 Score Details “The Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro is a truly luxurious smartwatch packed with proven, reliable fitness technology, but it's missing that something special, and the platform lacks wide appeal.” Pros Cons The Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro is a new product, but its features make it a bit of a “greatest hits” model in Huawei’s smartwatch range.
The built-in lugs make the 46mm Watch GT 3 Pro look and wear like a very large watch. Put it alongside the G-Shock MTG-B1000, and there’s little to distinguish between them. It is also considerably larger than my 43mm Oris Aquis GMT. I have a 6.5-inch wrist, and as you can see in the photos, the lugs extend to its edge.
The ceramic bracelet looks and feels exquisite. Each link has a polished sheen, the solid lugs are compact and subtle, and the butterfly clasp is not only visually ideal, but it feels strong and high quality when you lock and unlock it. I could do without the gold accents — I think they cheapen it slightly — but otherwise the 43mm ceramic Watch GT 3 Pro is the better-proportioned, more stylish of the two models.
Wondering where the special feature is? It’s missing in action. It should be able to take an Electrocardiogram , but this is not available on global Watch GT 3 Pro models due to the feature not yet being approved by regulators in Europe. Huawei couldn’t provide an idea of when that would happen, but said it hoped for approval to come this year.
If you don’t use a Huawei phone, you do lose some features. For example, notifications are interactive if you own a Huawei phone, but are limited to just text on iOS, where they did reliably arrive. There’s no Siri, Google Assistant, or Alexa voice assistant support and Huawei’s Celia requires a Huawei phone to work. You can’t use Google Maps, but Huawei’s decent Petal Maps is there, and if you use an iPhone, then third-party apps aren’t available.
Huawei’s Healthy Living Shamrock is Huawei’s version of Apple’s ring-based system for tracking daily progress. There are several different motivational plans to choose from, including relaxation, activity, and losing weight. Meet your goals and each “shamrock leaf” will be filled in. It’s quite unusual, and I appreciate how it is doing something different, but it’s not as effortless or as simple as a ring-based system. It’s all optional though, so you don’t have to use it.
Price and availability The Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro in titanium with the titanium bracelet costs 430 British pounds, or around $540, but the same watch with a leather strap costs 300 pounds , making it the better value purchase. The 43mm ceramic model costs 500 pounds , with gold accents or 430 pounds with silver accents. Pre-orders are open now through Huawei’s online store, with deliveries expected in June.
