Huawei - WATCH GT 6

omg my huawei gt6 41mm is at 75% after 2 days of sleep and roughly 1-hour exercise tracking with all continuous measurements possible turned on. If wearos watches manage to get to 5 days of battery life I would jump ship in a heartbeat but I guess we're still a long way from there

Also take the Huawei Watch GT 5/6 into account. Beautiful watches!

I'll answer you directly, to save everyone the trouble: Yes, the GT6 makes sense if you're coming from an Apple Watch, but with clear expectations. The good things about the Huawei GT6 Absurd battery life. Going from charging daily to every 7–10 days feels like getting out of a toxic relationship. Its design is more like a watch and less like a mini-iPhone on your wrist. If you like classic watches, this is a winner. It's more than enough for daily exercise: steps, heart rate, sleep, workouts, and solid GPS. It's not a toy. The not-so-good things (iOS rules here) Apple Health integration: limited. Huawei Health on iOS can record some data (steps, workouts, heart rate), but: Not everything works. It's not always consistent. Forget about it being as seamless as the Apple Watch. Notifications are fine, but without the full magic of the Apple ecosystem. If you already use "Do Not Disturb" all the time, this won't matter. Honest conclusion: If: Your priority is battery life, aesthetics, and basic tracking. You don't mind losing advanced "smart" features. You accept that Apple Health won't be perfect. 👉 The GT6 is a good buy. Yes: Apple Health is sacred You want 100% flawless and closed data You use fitness apps that depend on Apple Health

I agree. Coming from an Ultra, I absolutely don't regret switching to the GT6. Personally, I get 16 days of battery life with all the health sensors activated (no excessive exercise for me 😄). And it's three times cheaper too, which is a significant bonus 😎

HUAWEI GT-5 or 6 works flawlessly with my iPhone 13 and 15. The GT5 is a good looking very functional watch with a long battery life. The GT5 Pro is on sale as the new model GT6 is being released.

You forget Huawei, better sensors than Garmin (one of the best HR sensor with Apple) and better battery life on the GT series (21 days) for around half the price. GT6 beats the 570 in every aspect for less than half the price.

Huawei Watch 5 or Huawei Watch 4 Pro -> True Smart Watches Huawei Fit 4 Pro or Huawei GT6 -> Fitness trackers

I'm a Samsung user too, just bought a Huawei gt 6 and I'm liking it so far. Excellent battery life,build quality, alipay&wechat integration, simulate metro card and access cards, etc.

Amazfit is better since it offers more features for your sports, especially for weightlifting (sets, reps, creating workouts and follow it on the watch, customized data pages, intervals, etc), while Huawei can only start a workout and end it. Zepp app allows export to fit and gpx files, while Huawei app is locked in and has no export options. Sensors are very good and comparable on both of them. Training metrics (load, recovery) is much more accurate on Amazfit. Huawei always shows low figures for everything except for running. Huawei has more accurate calorie expenditure algorithm.

I have in the past but now I use a dedicated bike computer. There are some well within your budget that have maps and would be way better than trying to navigate using a small watch screen. There are a couple of Magene computers you can get on AliExpress that are highly rated for the $$. If you are really committed to having a watch, there are a lot of Garmin competitors that would work. I'm thinking Amazfit Trex (or one of the many other watches in the range), Huawei GT etc. off the top of my head.
