Hey, your review is so helpful to me. Especially, I’m iPhone user and I would like to purchase my first smart watch like Apple Watch 5 or Huawei GT2. I’m little confused what would be the best watch I can afford and get satisfied. Let me know your thoughts, really it would helpful to me and someone who is looking for their first smart watch
Thanks for the video, I got my Huawei Watch GT2 42mm, got the same features only less battery life. I think Huawei Health is doing a good job. my better the Amazfit.
GnomezGrave If you use a digital watch face then no. But, owners who want to use that feature wouldn’t be using a digital watch face. They would implement an Analog face.
@@GnomezGrave You can use them as markings to reference a start and end time. for instance, Divers can use those to time a dive. ie : 10 Min , 20 min of oxygen. etc.
Brilliant battery performance. And this is with everything on! As good as they are, non of the top smart watches on the market, come anywhere close when it comes to battery life.
Yeah, it doesn't sync the Heart Rate at all, and even the other measurements takes a lot of time to sync automatically.It didn't sync even after one day so I always have to manually sync.
Hi i am planning to Buy Huawei GT 2, but have checked in revenues that Huawei has App issue and Watch has Bluetooth communication issue with mobile due to which it doesn't show notifications and sys is also not done automatic. I am using Oppo F7 and going to update for MI or Samsung phone, so are this compatible with Huawei?
I never had issues with notifications when the watch is connected. Yes, the sync may not ne automatic. Any Android phone is compatible with this watch, and even iPhones.
It seems GT2e is better, especially regarding the sports modes. Check the comparison here: mx.gearbest.com/blog/new-gear/huawei-watch-gt2e-vs-watch-gt2-whats-the-difference-between-them-12300
Both of these should be done form the Huawei Health app. When you click on the device, it will show a "Favorite Contacts" section to add contacts. You can also select watch faces from the app.
Is there any way to receive notifications while the watch is in workout mode? If I choose bicycle workout mode, then I can see only actual data of my workout on the screen, while notifications (for example from Messenger) doesn’t appear. :(
I've been using this watch for the last couple of months, but I've had this problem and haven't found a solution: I've gone biking and when I use the watch to record the workout, sometimes the top of my hand will press one of the buttons by accident, pausing the workout record. This is because my wrist gets into less than a 90°. Then I would check the watch and have to resume the workout, leaving an untracked piece of route. Same could happen if doing push-ups for example. I know there's a lock button for the screen, but if I press the top button while working out it will paise the workout.
If you need a smarter watch, it's Watch Active 2. It's better if you have a Samsung phone. If you need more battery life and/or have a Huawei phone. However, I would recommend to look at TicWatch Pro 3. It's sk far the best WearOS watch you can buy now.
There nowhere online a review that showcases the notifications.. Does it group messages or are they ungrouped? The reason I'm asking is that my Amazfit group messages and displays "you have 4 new messages". There is no way of reading my messages on the watch... I have to take out my phone to read the messages.
My watch gt2 stopped recieving WhatsApp call notification anymore. I used too get my WhatsApp call directly to my watch gt2. Now suddenly stopped working. However I tried connecting to iPhone it works fine. Only it's not working if I connected to any Android phone. I did all reset options, both on phone and Watch GT2 ..Any idea? How to fix.
As I remember, I never got any notifications for calls on third-party apps. I'm also using an Android phone, and I think probably an issue with Google-Huawei issue in general.
Haven't tried that. But then why not directly connect the ear buds to the phone and answer the call? The watch doesn't have 4G support so you need the phone connected anyway to answer the calls.
@@GnomezGrave hi thanks for the reply but I haven't received my answer. I m using Sony wear os smart watch and there no in the smart watch whenever m getting calls so m receiving calls through smart watch but talking on my earpods. Coz m y ear pods and watch both are connected to my phone and it is quite easy. The only reason m switching that's my watch battery backup it is giving only one day backup. In Samsung frontier s3 watch have this kind of support in Samsung Watch there is two options through watch speaker or Bluetooth ear buds you can switch. So please you kindly try this in gt 2 and let me know. Thanks.
@@GnomezGrave brother you are right but in some different watch which has a speaker if I connect earbuds to my phone and if I receive calls through earbuds so its rejects n automatically switch to watch speaker. That's why am asking please clear.
Hey man ! Someone told me that you can download an app on Huawei watch GT 2 the can display google map direction from your phone to the watch , only work if you have your phone with you ofc . Can you confirm if there is such thing or not, since this is a deal breaker for me and i only need directions shown on the watch even if i have to have my phone on me to work
@@GnomezGrave hmmm intrensting, what about those numbers in shadow watchface above temperature, it comes from - 3 to 7,sometimes from 15 do 20,i don't get it, what is that?
I think that's the temperature. The ranges shows the min and max temperature for the day and the arrow points to the current value. Ref: forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/huawei-watch/question-layout-watchface-shadows-t4053685
Why am i not getting whatsapp notication consistently? Sometimes i recvd individual msg but not for group notification and vice versa, any ideas? Btw, great video
Good vids bro,i watch till end..can u or someone answer me plzzz..does this gt2 can used our own pictures/wallpapers to make watchface like gt2e does???plz help me bcoz im buying this watch soon..gt2 or gt2e better???plzzzzzz help me 😭😭😭😭😭
I never experienced any issue like that. However, the sensor is not quite accurate as well. Probably it gives wrong readings due to sweat, hair, even your skin color. Worst case, you might have a defective sensor. You can try to ask someone else to try it out. And you can test another watch.
I don't have that issue but having alarming high level heart rate up as high as 194 though I feel absolutely alright. I guess the heart rate sensor is not accurate especially on high heart rates
It's way better for sure. The only remaining issue, which will remain for sure, is it doesn't sync with Google Fit. If you don't care about it, then it's perfect.
Except the obvious issues like syncing, I wouldn't call it bad software TBH. Because, it's made it like that to save battery. If they introduce more sophisticated features, the battery life will definitely go down. And yes, the software itself is very buggy. 😣
@@GnomezGrave The worst is. 1) Isn't apps for integration to Strava or another similar service. Google Fit and MyFitnessPal 100% SUX. For bicycle, activity isn't auto stop function.
Yeah, that's sadly true. I like Amazfit in that aspect because they have really good integration with other services even though they're also a Chinese brand.
