The new Huawei Watch GT4 is here with two stylish options - 41mm with a "Pendant Design" and 46mm with an "Octogonal Design" - and upgraded TruSeen 5.5+ technology, a new suite of sensors and algorithms for more accurate and detailed health tracking.
Both have 20% better battery life than the corresponding GT3 model. The new series also comes with an improved Always-On Display mode - it can have up to 20% more visible elements than before.
The 46mm model has a 1.43" display, while the 41mm model has a 1.32" display. Both are AMOLED with a resolution of 466 x 466px (326ppi and 352ppi pixel density respectively).
TruSeen 5.5+ brings the new TruSleep 3.0 technology. This includes Sleep Monitoring, which tracks your sleep cycles and helps you improve your sleep habits. In addition, Sleep Breathing Awareness keeps an eye on your heart rate and SpO2 while you sleep and alerts you to any breathing problems.
The other new feature is Menstrual Cycle Management 3.0. Huawei claims that this is 15% more accurate in predicting the first day of your period than mainstream smartwatches. This technology tracks heart rate during sleep, sleep temperature, and other physiological factors to predict periods and track symptoms in real time.
For outdoor exercise, the dual-band, five-system GNSS provides 30% more accurate positioning, even when you're surrounded by tall buildings. The watch can track a variety of sports (100+) and now includes things like paddle and even e-sports.
The new Stay Fit feature helps you track your calorie intake with real-time health data. Activity Rings provide at-a-glance information on how you're doing throughout the day (showing calories burned, exercise duration, and activity while standing).
The Huawei Watch GT4 works with both Android and iOS smartphones. It also integrates with apps like Strava, Komoot, Runtastic and Huawei's own Petal Maps. It can also display texts from SMS, WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook Messenger, Skyp, Signal, Telegram and Viber, as well as send back quick replies. The watches also support Bluetooth calls.
The Huawei Watch GT4 46mm starts at €250/£230. This is for the "black rubber" strap (it's a fluoroelastomer material). Then there's the brown leather option and the rainforest green GMT, both at €270/£250. The GMT version has a braided composite strap made from recycled ocean-going nylon. The top-of-the-line model is the Steel version at €350/£300, which features a 316L stainless steel bracelet.
The Huawei Watch GT4 41mm also starts at €250/£230, in which case you get a white leather strap. For €300/£250, you can get the Milanese bracelet with a magnetic clasp. For €400/£350, you can get the premium Two-Tone Piano Key design, which is handcrafted in a 17-step process.
