When it comes to smartwatches, battery life is an absolutely integral feature to make sure runners and cyclists can complete their workouts without needing to worry about charging it beforehand. Many premium smartwatches boast battery life of two or three days before needing to be charged again—and that’s not even factoring in using them for workouts. The good news is that HUAWEI has launched a new range of smartwatches that are helping to buck the trend of battery life woes for fitness enthusiasts. The tech giant has launched the HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 Pro that boasts ultra-long battery life, offering up to three weeks on a single charge. That means that runners, cyclists and adventurers can stay powered through any adventure, from short escapes to extended journeys and from recreational exercise to elite-level fitness. The GT 6 Series also come with a vibrant 1.47-inch AMOLED display with an impressive 3000 nits peak brightness – perfect for checking outdoors during sunny days. It’s also IP69 resistant, meaning it’ll shrug off water and dust. It also complies with the EN13319 standard for diving accessories, meaning it can be worn during shallow water activities such as swimming in a pool or along the coast. For those who want to closely track their movements, the devices come with HUAWEI’s Sunflower Positioning System for pinpoint accuracy that ensures every move counts. It also features HUAWEI’s TruSense system that allows tracking of health such as heart rate, SpO2, and blood pressure.comes And the good news is that Huawei is offering a limited-time deal for shoppers. The HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 is priced from £229, whilst the HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 Pro starts at £329, but customers can secure £30 off their order using voucher code A30OFFGT6 , valid until October 30. For those who want alternatives, there’s the Apple Watch Ultra 2 for Apple users who need the best of the best. Amazon is selling the device for £659. For fitness lovers, there’s the Garmin Forerunner 55 Smartwatch for £179.99 from Boots which is ideal for runners and walkers as they can track time, distance, pace and speed with built-in GPS and it has a battery life of up to two weeks. The feedback from shoppers on the new HUAWEI devices has been absolutely glowing. One reviewer who called it ‘phenomenal’ said: “I am extremely satisfied with this watch. It exceeded all my expectations in every way. “The design is sleek and modern, the performance is flawless, and the features are incredibly useful. Battery life is impressive, the interface is smooth, and it tracks all my activities perfectly. This watch is worth every penny, and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-quality smartwatch!” Another reviewer wrote: “I had version 3 classic before, it was also good, but this one is simply amazing. The build quality is excellent, and the screen is visible even in bright sunlight. “Finally, the battery arrived with a 67% charge. I’ve had it for eight days, and I haven’t charged it yet, and the battery is still 29%. I don’t have any battery-saving options turned on, just the standard settings; it’s amazing.” Someone else shared: “After a while using my Apple Watch Series 9, I decided to upgrade to a Huawei Gt 6 Pro. Besides feeling like a more premium Smartwatch, it doesn’t require charging every single day. Also, it connects perfectly with my iPhone. I love the titanium finish and the different watch faces. Five stars from me.” But it’s not all plain sailing. The devices lack NFC payment support in the UK, meaning shoppers who enjoy paying for things with their watches while exercising or out and about won’t have the functionality to do so.
