Review on HUAWEI Watch GT 2 (42mm) - AMOLED Display, 1 πŸ•°οΈ Week Battery, GPS, Heart Rate Monitor, Night Black (International Model, No Warranty) by Fery Buana ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I'm satisfied, the product is exactly as described.

I switched from an Amazfit GTR2 because it stopped working after a month and a half of use, I returned it to the store, and I didn't dare to take new ones because there are many similar problems in the evaluations of many services - obviously the entire model is flawed. In general, the watch is a good fit; but, after using Amazfit, I don't like the logic of working with the watch; more particularly, I don't like that screen savers can't be replaced and that this model only comes with four of them. The GTR2 includes a clever smart mode, in which a simplified dial is displayed on the screen in the standby / lock mode (just arrows or only numbers), while the animation of switching on this mode is done beautifully: the screen "falls" into the shadow, and only the essential minimum is displayed. At the same time, virtually all user-created screens are compatible with this mode. And when the Huawei Watch GT2 is in standby mode, firstly, the backlight of the off screen is always on (you cannot set the backlight to turn off). This is because the backlight cannot be turned off. And this immediately has a negative impact on the battery charge), and secondly, by putting a gorgeous dial on the main screen, which, when you lock it, displays a completely new style and screensaver design when the screen is locked. Because I need to be able to read the time on the clock with just a quick peek at the screen, I consider this to be a big disadvantage. Turning the knob by hand or touching the buttons is in no way appropriate.

Pros
  • - good autonomy a screen with a high brightness and a good quality; a variety of different training modes - user-friendly player control and a detailed weather display - the ability to measure heart rate, stress level, and other metrics - an attractive design that fits comfortably on the hand - a wide variety of interchangeable 22mm straps - a large selection of interchangeable screens, including some that cost money - a large number of interchangeable screens overall
Cons
  • - weird system logic - a difficulty to switch between different screen savers - a few hiccups in the system's performance - the monotony of every screen; there are virtually no digital screens, and the few that do exist are typically cluttered with visuals that aren't necessary
