At Huawei’s event held on September 14 in Barcelona, they finally revealed the awaited Huawei Watch GT 4, following up on 2021’s Watch GT 3. This latest smartwatch is packed with upgrades, including improved performance, longer battery life, a better display, and more. In this article, let’s check what are changes brought to the Huawei Watch GT 4, on the basis of its features, specifications, availability, and expected price in Nepal.
Huawei Watch GT 4 Roundup:
Design and Display
First of all, there are two options available for the Huawei Watch GT4: the 41mm Pendant design and the 46mm Octagonal design. The 46mm model features a 1.43″ AMOLED color screen with 466 x 466 pixels and a PPI of 326. It weighs approximately 48g without the strap. On the other hand, the 41mm variant offers a slightly smaller 1.32″ AMOLED color screen with the same 466×466 pixel resolution but a higher PPI of 352. This model weighs approximately 37g.
Both models come with an improved Always-On Display mode, which can now display up to 20% more visible elements than before. Moreover, they come with 5ATM meaning that they are designed to withstand water pressure when submerged up to 50 meters (164 feet) deep.
Battery
The choice between the 41mm and 46mm models primarily depends on your preferences for battery life. Speaking of battery life, the larger 46mm model boasts a runtime of up to 14 days, even with maximum usage. In contrast, the smaller 41mm variant offers a still respectable 7-day battery life under similar usage conditions. It’s worth noting that both models provide a 20% improvement in battery life compared to their respective GT3 predecessors.
For everyday use, the 46mm model can keep going for a solid 8 days on a single charge, while the 41mm variant offers a slightly shorter 4-day battery life.
Health Features
The Huawei Watch GT4 introduces TruSeen 5.5+ technology, featuring a new collection of sensors and algorithms for more precise health tracking.
Within TruSeen 5.5+, there’s the new TruSleep 3.0 technology. This includes sleep monitoring and sleep breathing awareness, which continuously monitors heart rate and SpO2 levels while sleeping.
Another addition is Menstrual Cycle Management 3.0. Huawei claims that this feature is 15% more accurate in predicting the first day of your period compared to flagship smartwatches. It supposedly goes far; the device tracks heart rate during sleep, sleep temperature, and other physiological factors, to predict menstrual cycles and record symptoms in real-time.
