Huawei launches Watch GT6 and GT6 Pro
Huawei on Friday introduced two new smartwatches from the GT series – the Watch GT6 and Watch GT6 Pro. Both come with AMOLED displays, long-lasting batteries, and comprehensive sports tracking, but differ in size, materials, and sensors.
The GT6 is available in two sizes – 46 mm and 41 mm. The larger version offers up to 21 days of battery life with light usage, while the smaller one lasts up to 14 days. Both carry 5 ATM water resistance and IP69 certification, making them suitable for swimming. The case is made of stainless steel, and several strap options are available.
The GT6 Pro comes in a single 45.6 mm version, but with a titanium case and extra sensors. In addition to the standard set, it brings an ECG sensor and a depth sensor, supporting free dives up to 40 meters (EN13319 certified). Battery life matches the bigger GT6 at up to 21 days.
