Huawei GT Runner ( all black ): purchased in November 2022. I use it for running, hiking and biking. HR sensor is very good ( I also have Polar H10 for comparison ) and the GPS is also decent ( been tested many times while hiking and trail running in the mountains, also running and biking ). It's very light, comfortable, performance is way better than you would get in many devices that are 2-3 times the price. I don't use it for talking on it, media, notifications, music, etc. - it's strictly for looking at the time, sleep tracking ( it's by far the most accurate, but it can be used as an indicator of sleep quality after a while, when you get the "hang" of it ), heart rate and for tracking sports. Battery time is around 6 days for me - almost everything is turned on ( HR monitoring is real-time ), except stress. I run 5-6 times a week, averaging around 70-75 km / 44-47 miles. I paid 620 RON or 124 EUR or 134 USD ( back in Nov. 2022 ). Should Huawei stick to this formula and release a v.2, with improved sensors, GPS, sleep tracking, at least the same battery life performance, I would buy it, even if the price were to be x2. Cheers!
An Apple Watch user for years.. I bought the Huawei Gt 4 a few months ago and I never looked back.. paired with a 14 pro max.. ohh and 12 days of battery life..😊
i use my apple watch daily and i charge it in shower or eating dinner at night not a big deal but better battery life would be really good not gonna lie but i dont mind a 1 day-ish battery life in devices for my life style isnt a big deal
I was so conflicted on choosing either the white leather or the black version, saw so many review videos and none of them showed me the strap swap feature but you, thank you so much for being so detailed with your review. I appreciate it a lot.
I was going through lots of Huawei Watch Fit 3 review only looking for the nylon strap swap feature whether it is compatible or not with other straps because I prefer normal strap and I just need to buy the nylon version because of the NFC, and this video is the only one that showed it. Thanks a lot.
I bought an Apple series 8 watch 18 months ago - my first Apple watch. I was bitterly disappointed, almost entirely because of the battery life. I recently bought a Huawei GT4 and I love it - 10 days battery life, and its smart features are great...and accurate. My Apple watch remains in my cupboard...
@@melisazuniga1940 Sure, you can have my Apple series 8 smart watch Melisa. But you will need to travel to my location in Nairobi, Kenya to collect it - after all that you will deserve getting it for free 😂😂😂
I have a couple of Huawei watches and buds pound for pound they are fantastic value! Im a pensioner, so most of my tracking is linked to walking (about 12k steps a day) for that they are great. AND the icing on the cake is Battery life, nothing annoys me more than frequent charging!
I just bought the Huawei Watch fit 3 after owning an Apple Watch. For the money, the Huawei is way better; the battery is awesome for how long it lasts, all the apps are accurate, very light on the wrist, does everything and more the apple does. I have heart problems so the SpO2, heart rate, and arrhythmia apps are great. I can make and receive phone calls, listen to music, awesome sleep app, waterproof, has speakers on it too. Why would a pay for Apple a disgusting rip off price?
I have a few questions that someone could maybe answer? 1) Does the Huawei fit app sync to other apps like strava and bank fitness tracking? 2) How does it compare (fitness accuracy compared to Garmin)?
Hello! Is there a voice coach? "Start training" or something? Does every workout have a voice coach? Or do some workouts have animated videos? Does indoor walking have a voice trainer? Thanks!
I am HUAWEI and Apple ultra user and I can say is that Apple Watch is more high quality in terms of appearance and usage. The only set back is the charging only last for 3 days.
I had a Redmi Watch 4, sold it a couple days ago for this. The Redmi looks pale in-comparison to the Fit 3, but of course the Fit 3 is a lot more expensive. Fit 3 is essentially a GT4 on a square form factor with better specifications
Quick question! Do u know how does the remote shutter from the app gallery work with Android phone? Can i see the camera preview? Or only one round button?
I currently have Amaze fit Pro3 which I've had for over one and a half years now and it is Great. After watching this review I am beginning to seriously consider the Fit3 but I have a Question which is: Does the Fit3 have One-Tap Measuring which is You choose the option then stand still for 45 seconds and gives You 4 Different Measurements namely: Hart Rate, Blood Oxygen, Stress Level and Breaths per minute?
I just bought it and it really is an upgrade from the previous ones, but how can i go to the option for gym workouts like the ones that show on the video at 6:54 ??
Is it possible to have the phone set to DND but the watch still alerts? Tried a Samsung Galaxy Fit 3 recently & if you don't have a Samsung phone the option to unsync DND isn't available!
Hello. If you have the watch now, I would like to ask you to try something small. When we start any training mode, can we run the stopwatch simultaneously? Can the training be put in the background or can we start a stopwatch by swiping right etc? thanks
Do you get all notifications from the phone? Can someone who has a watch test if you can still get a notification on your watch when you have connected your phone to CarPlay while driving?
I got my first Apple Watch (a Nike Series 7) just after the Series 8 and Ultra 1 were released. If I was needing a replacement, I’d definitely be considering this, especially seeing as it’s iOS compatible. Thanks for the content!
Thanks for the review! Based on price and battery this wins. In terms of functionality, or as I will qualify - the accuracy of the measurements the watch produces, this is a close second to Apple. I watched the Quantified Scientist and his data suggests (the dude love his data and lots of it) Apple is more accurate, but it’s the difference of 93% accurate with Huawei and 98% accurate with Apple. The one area where Huawei fails is in sleep tracking - not very accurate at all. For €100 or more I decided on the Huawei. It’s worth noting that I use a MacBook, iPad, and iPhone. I just didn’t want to pay the premium for this device.
The Huawei Watch Fit 3 was just announced and is currently available for pre-order in the United Kingdom and Continental Europe. It will be released on May 22nd, 2 priced at £140/€160 (around $169) for the Fluoroelastomer strap version and £160/€180 (around $199) for the White Leather Strap version.
Probably not. You can't on the Fit 2, and the Fit 3 doesn't appear to have changed a single thing on the software side. That said, it does have a generic media controller - i.e. it'll play/pause whatever you're listening to on your phone.
@@MikeStevens Thanks for the info brother i appreciate it! Been asking the same questions around the internet. I might keep my apple watch unless they put spotify app or yt music app in their watches. 🤘🏼
Three very important questions 1) Has the vibration improved compared to the previous model? 2) Is the vibration of the Watch Fit 3 similar to the apple watch? 3) Has the ability to set more than one timer been added?
I have a ticwatch pro, and it does not work well paired with my iphone, notifications come when hey want to lol, sometimes the whole day without anything. So I gues it’s due to the android system. Any issues on that matter with theses huawei?
Actually, it's not android but apple OS that makes problems with your watch.... Apple closed their garden, and whatever you buy, except apple watch, you will have problems using it with an iPhone.
nned a huawei phone to get some of the features ie auto pause of running or outdoor sports for what ever the reason why this is i dont know but its been an issue for years.
Biggest issue with this watch is, does not have hiking mode (no altitude meter). And if you get multiple messages from one person, example viber, you will be able to see only last one. Smartwatch without calculator? Not even with additional apps? Few disappointments from me. People exaggerate and call it apple watch killer.....seriously.
Do all the health features in the iPhone work, such as different heart rate, heart fitness, and all the health features found in the Apple watch, and work in the Apple application and not in the Huawei Health application?
What's your smartwatch of choice (and why)?
Apple Watch. Technique, build quality and eco system

I ordered GT4 as well. Such a stunning watch!!
Same here! Love the gt4 way better than may applw watch s8 :)
I currently use with Samsung S series, perfect companion and FANTASTIC battery life, I HATE daily watch charging (hint Apple and Samsung).
How do people put up with daily charging of the apple watch is a mystery.
Just go take a shower and it is charged

@farisrashid what was the price for NFC version in your region?
@@MHKS-vizh It is RM100 more expensive than the normal one. The nfc version costs RM699 and the normal versions cost RM599 in Malaysia.

Hello, can we pair a chest cardio belt with it?
Is it better at sleep and heart rate tracking accuracy compared to the Watch Fit 2?
Nope, it's worse. Maybe they can fiks software side
6:53 Where to find that on the app?
I am HUAWEI and Apple ultra user and I can say is that Apple Watch is more high quality in terms of appearance and usage. The only set back is the charging only last for 3 days.
what about NFC ? All models have nfc? or later they will release?
You won't be able to use NFC in the uk.
Thanks for your review 🤩
Will this watch count steps while pushing a stroller?
Hello, can you adjust the volume of the alarm clock? Is there an option for vibration only or vibration sound? Thank you in advance for your answer.
Can you double tap to unlock the screen or just from the lateral buttons?
That particular watch strap, how is it going to deal with workouts as far as sweat goes? Will it be ok? Will it discolour etc?
Aliexpress has tones of straps, very cheap :))
Hi. Is it possible to lock the screen (no touch)? Does the rollerblade mode track the route via GPS?
I have the gt since years and its amazing, do you think its time to upgrade?
I’m doing it after 4 years with my GT2
I upgraded from the gt2 and imo its worth it, much faster response and more options, but the battery life of the gt2 is unmatched
You have a great narrator/radio host voice.
What is your opinion of this comparisson to redmi watch 4? Thank you for your video mate. Lovely.

At iphone it is available all the information that u said and does it work with calls from the watch
Yes
Can huawei watch transfer the exercise data into Apple health app ?? Will the data from huawei health app sync to the apple fitness app??
Thanks for a great video , just one quick question you did say it works with Apple Pay is that correct exactly like the Apple Watch thanks 😊
Thanks! And nope, no compatibility with Apple Pay.
Is the Pulse wave arrhythmia option is available in your region?Thank you

Gt2 have barometer, this thing has not. All the other functions are mostly the same, so I dont recommend to "upgrade".
Great job! You just sold me the Huawei Fit 3 watch!
Which one is better Gt4 or fit 3?
Does it have GPS for running, and memory for music so you can run with it and wireless earphones? Looks pretty sweet.
yes
No it does not
@@calmingsxnity it dose have GPS and it can record your run rout using GPS and record it for you so you can chek it later
and yes it have like 1.5GB of space thats equal to up to 300+ songs stored locally on the watch
and yes you can connect it to wireless headphones\ any other audio device and you you can connect it to gem tools as long as its supported.
Can it be flipped upside down for people wearing it on there right rist.
Would u recommend this as an upgrade over the Samsung watch 5? I'm getting sick of almost daily charging. 😢 Or something more like the GT series?
Fit series last for 10days battery life, and gt series at 14 days, it depends on your convenience and choice tbh
Yes.
What about getting it in the US ? I know it’s banned in the us but how good is it with Samsung devices
This watch looks impressive by even looking at it... I am using gt 4 but I am tempting to get the fit 3🙄🙄
Hello. If you have the watch now, I would like to ask you to try something small. When we start any training mode, can we run the stopwatch simultaneously? Can the training be put in the background or can we start a stopwatch by swiping right etc? thanks
Did a very quick test, and no, I don't think you can.

Thanks for your accurate and usefull review Mark.

Can the data sync to apple health?
I am currently using fit2, is it better to change these fit3 ?
Only if you prefer the physical design of the Fit 3. Looks like the software is completely unchanged.
Does it support offline music? Can I slap mp3 on it?
yes!
Can be used with iPhone?
Yes
Do you get all notifications from the phone? Can someone who has a watch test if you can still get a notification on your watch when you have connected your phone to CarPlay while driving?
Hmm i use the huawei band (not the watch) and it even allows you to get all notifications

Does it work with Apple Health?
Hello friend, can you measure how many grams the nylon and rubber strap you have in your hand, I wonder if the difference in weight is much?
Good alternative for people who they want to buy Apple Watch but don’t have the budget
Activity tracker > smart watch all day every day. I just want fitness tracking, notifications and a week of battery life.
