Huawei’s watches continue to be stymied by the trade ban.
on a new proprietary operating system called HarmonyOS 2. It then followed that up with the Huawei Watch GT 3. So it’s not a huge surprise that Huawei is back again with the Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro.
Last year’s Watch 3 was a good attempt and reminded me a lot of Samsung’s Tizen smartwatches. And while I haven’t had the GT 3 Pro for very long, what I’ve seen so far continues that overall vibe. The GT 3 Pro comes in two versions: a titanium model and an all-ceramic model. The former features a 46.6mm case with a 1.4-inch OLED display while the latter is smaller at 42.9mm with a 1.3-inch display.
Huawei is in a weird spot when it comes to its consumer tech. Thanks to an executive order issued by former President Donald Trump in 2019, thein its gadgets. That includes Android and Wear OS — hence, the proprietary OS. So, while I can test out the Watch GT 3 Pro, it’s not a smartwatch that I can actually buy in the US. It’s a shame since Huawei’s been in the wearables space for a long time and made some excellent smartwatches along the way.
However, a lot of this won’t matter once Fossil and other third-party watchmakers get on Google’s Wear OS 3. Like Samsung’s, Huawei’s wearables are locked into its own ecosystem. When Wear OS 3 becomes more widely available, other third-party watchmakers will get access to Google services and popular apps like Spotify. That’ll be great for Android users overall. But Huawei’s watches will still be best for people with Huawei phones.
In a nutshell, Huawei’s watches are stuck in limbo. I could see plenty of people digging the watch’s snappier performance, health tracking, and analog aesthetic — even if the third-party app ecosystem is nonexistent. But, at the same time, none of its watches are so revolutionary that it triggers wearable FOMO. At the end of the day, you’re not missing
