The best I ever used, recommend it to everybody.

If you don't run at least 1 time (preferably 3) a week or don't swim, you don't need this watch. In the gym, the use of these watches is not great, and taking them just because they “look awesome” and then writing reviews that this is a “fitness bracelet in watch format” is ridiculous - the manufacturer did not promise anything other than what was suggested.
Before buying, I also considered GT2, but I don’t need to talk to the watch and I won’t control the player on the watch screen on the run, and the insecurity of the glossy dial is a serious minus for me. I don’t like the “short” and not very accurate Samsungs for sports (I have experience) - they only have a swimming mode, quick answers and gpx export (to SHels), the rest (including NFC) I don’t need at all.
For many years, I preferred bracelets to watches. I considered the watch bulky and inconvenient, and with low autonomy (Samsung, Apple, etc.), their additional features were redundant for me, but I am satisfied with this watch, an excellent solution for my tasks.

Pros

A watch for those who devote time to sports, not for youtube-insta-social networks. Unlike bracelets, the accuracy of the indicators is higher here, there is a detailed analysis of your activities that remain in the memory of the watch, recommendations for the recovery period, many training programs (running) and AI performance evaluation. It has an excellent pedometer, sleep monitoring, very accurate and fast GPS, VO2max and a decent HRM (but not the best). The watch consumes ~12.5% of the charge per day with all-inclusive and daily training, thinner than many bracelets and it is light (like 2 bracelets) - it is comfortable to sleep and swim in them, and while running, the large screen helps to see everything clearly. Activity management with large physical buttons is much more convenient here than in any bracelets. It is easy to set the "pause" with the buttons, and this is more accurate than the "autopause" in Samsungs and on some other devices.

Cons

The HB4 heart rate monitor is more accurate, but the difference is not dramatic - no more than 2 beats on average and 3 in max. pulse. Perhaps this is due to the greater weight of the watch and, as a result, with "parasitic" vibrations when running. In the screenshot below, a comparison of GT and HB4 with a chest HRM (black curve), i. E. there is an error, but the overall picture is correct, unlike Samsung devices. No data export (well, or rather difficult to do). No quick replies to messages. There is no heart rate measurement in the "swimming" mode (in "swimming" there are no additional options compared to the bracelet, except for a very convenient end of the workout using the physical button). I didn’t think that I would write this, but yes - there are few dials, there are none that suit me completely among those offered. And, the last "flaw": not all ates are successful (and not only for Huawei). Now everything is fine, but there were strange "upgrades".
