On April 23rd, Huawei released the new Huawei Watch GT 2e in China. As a smart wearable product mainly for young users, Huawei Watch GT 2e has a design that combines fashion and technology, as well as professional intelligent sports and health intelligent assistant functions. Below we will bring you a detailed evaluation experience of this smart watch.

Appearance: the combination of trend and technology

In this evaluation, I got the mint green color version of Huawei Watch GT 2e, and the strap is a green and black TPU strap. Due to the design scheme of integrated glass screen and stainless steel body, Huawei Watch GT 2e looks rigid and simple in perception, especially with a sense of the future.

Compared with the slightly cold watch body, the mint green version of Huawei Watch GT 2e has fashionable design elements. As a neutral color, mint green is suitable for both boys and girls, or will become the mainstream color of fashion in 2020.

While adopting fashionable and popular colors, this strap also adopts the design concept of contrast color, with mint green color on the outside of the strap and classic black on the inside of the strap, which is more youthful and energetic.

The design scheme of multi-row double-color strap not only caters to the current popular design trend, but also realizes the organic combination of artistic design and industrial design. The middle row of the three rows of punched holes in Huawei Watch GT 2e strap is designed as the pinhole of the buckle, thus realizing the integration of the pinhole of the strap and the strap itself. The design of multi-row perforation greatly improves the breathable area of the strap, which is beneficial to perspiration during exercise. The TPU material used in the strap has soft characteristics and warm touch, which is very comfortable to wear or hold in your hand.

The stainless steel watch body of Huawei Watch GT 2e is made by casting process. Compared with the products designed by plastic watch body and traditional strap, the overall texture can be said to be very high-end. At the same time, the fashionable and creative strap design also brings youthful atmosphere to the cold watch body, thus realizing the organic combination of trend and technology.

Dials: 100 customized and personalized dials

In terms of dials, Huawei Watch GT 2e currently has nearly 200 kinds of personalized dials for users to choose from, and also added customized dials and dynamic dials to fully meet the needs of young people to show their individuality.

For example, this multifunctional dial can display information such as weather, heart rate, power, pressure, steps, calories burned and so on in the form of "dashboard" on the watch screen at the same time, and all the information on the dial provides customization options.

Multifunctional dial display

In addition to lifting the conventional dial displayed on the wrist, Huawei Watch GT 2e also provides a standby dial function. Standby dial is also called normally bright dial. Like the ordinary dial, the standby dial also provides a variety of cool dial styles and custom options to choose from. For example, the traditional pointer dial I experienced has a variety of colors to choose from. Of course, it should be noted that after the standby dialing function is turned on, the battery life of Huawei Watch GT 2e will be reduced to some extent.

Hardware: AMOLED screen, long battery life.

The screen of Huawei Watch GT 2e adopts 1.39-inch AMOLED touch screen, which has retina-level high resolution, full color and strong contrast in the screen display effect, and can clearly see the information on the screen under outdoor strong light.

So, what is the endurance of Huawei Watch GT 2e with so many excellent functions? According to Huawei's official introduction, Huawei Watch GT 2e is equipped with a low-power wearable chip Kirin A 1 developed by Huawei. It adopts highly integrated heterogeneous chip design and multi-core efficient cooperation. Combined with the new intelligent power saving algorithm 2.0 mode, it can realize ultra-low power computing and a new experience of strong battery life.

In the actual experience, after two days of intensive use, this Huawei Watch GT 2e in my hand only consumes 18%, with an average daily power consumption of 9%.

Huawei Watch GT 2e adopts the design of magnetic thimble charging port in the charger design. Just move the magnetic base connected to the power supply to the bottom of the watch, and the two will be connected together by magnetic force, which is very convenient and fast. In terms of hardware, Huawei Watch GT 2e is also equipped with Bluetooth BT5. 1, which has stronger anti-interference ability and enhanced bandwidth technology of Huawei mobile phone, and can realize longer-distance connection.

In terms of operation, Huawei Watch GT 2e adopts a combination of physical buttons and touch operation. Huawei Watch GT 2e has two physical buttons on the watch body. The buttons above are power button and menu button, and the buttons below can customize the function.

Through the combination of physical buttons and touch, the interactive experience of Huawei Watch GT 2e can be said to be quite good. In practice, you can quickly find the required functions and set custom options. In particular, the design of physical buttons allows users to quickly return to the menu page or start a function.
