Huawei - FIT Activity Tracker + Heart Rate - Silver/Navy Blue

Good value for money, attractive enough to wear to most occasions or situations, and battery life lasts around a week

First of I'd like to say how much I loved this watch! Great design, nice and light when wearing, awesome battery. It literally had all the features I wanted. BUT, heres the bad part, it constantly disconnects from my phone! It never syncs! I constant have to "touch to reconnect" and NEVER has it once recorded my steps climbed. So i just get the constant spinning circle saying "connecting". I read several reviews of people saying they had this issue, but I disregarded it because I liked it so much. But now ill be returning it sadly. Oh and because it wont sync, all the features are not usable because they are grayed out. This product would have gotten 5 stars if it did what it suppose to.

The back of the watch started to crack and cut my wrist after four month. Now it is totally useless. I did not contact the customer service because I looked up online that a lot of people had the same problem and had contacted the customer service but they never gave a response. I used to be a fun of Huawei, but not anymore. For activity tracking, I think it is better to go with Fitbit.

Context: For comparison to "Huawei Fit", I also own and have extensively used: the new Pebble 2 HR; Garmin Forerunner 235 and Vivosmart HR; the new Fitbit Charge 2 & Surge & Blaze; Microsoft Band 2; and Philips Health Watch. The Huawei Fit is a very worthy alternative to all the above fitness trackers. What I LIKE about the Huawei Fit: - Always-on, readable screen - Long battery life (after 48 hours of continuous wearing, including continuous HR, I'm still at 80%!).. at only 10% per day decrease, that is on track for 10-day battery life - Premium looking round form factor! (See pic, where I swapped out the stock 18mm band with a metal 18mm band) - Auto-backlight (gesture controlled) - Accurate HR (per "TUV SUD" test specs, it exceeded regulatory requirements, look it up!) - HR level interval & warning... meaning you can say "buzz me if my HR goes above ___" - Water rating to 50 meters (165 feet), meaning swimming with it is ok. It even can track swimming as an activity. - You can fire up a GPS association on your phone through the app, and it will turn on the constant-HR, and blend it all in the app. Although it has no on-board GPS (like Fitbit Surge or Microsoft Band or Forerunner 235) it can use your phone's GPS like Fitbit Blaze... so that's better than nothing. What I DON'T like about the Huawei Fit (aka "what I would change"): - The HR graphs are not as detailed as Fitbit's or Garmin's.. where you can touch the graph and see the HR reading and the time it was taken anywhere on the graph. Instead, with Huawei, it only shows the highest and lowest reading for the entire day - The gesture control to change screens (where you turn your wrist to move from clock to HR to step count, etc) is too sensitive. A turn of my wrist to see the time will often flip the screen pages. - Activities are not "auto"-tracked.

I've owned the Samsung Gear S, Pebble 2, and the Moto 360 2nd Gen. Pebble looked the worst but had the best battery life Samsung had the best screen, but i couldn't take advantage of its full OS due to me not having a Samsung phone Moto 360 2nd gen looked the best, but the LCD screen and battery life were bad (and constant disconnection of Bluetooth). I got this watch for $99.99 from Best Buy and i must say, not only is it cheaper than most watches at that sale price, it is the best looking of the lot. Sleek, simple, and thin (though not as thin as the Pebble time). I got the gun metal\black version, and i love the surround dashes on it (gives it a real watch premium lock). The screen is super easy to see day and night. It does ALMOST everything i want it to do (i am on the latest Firmware as of Nov 25. 2016). The simple clock face is fine (though more to choose from would be great). What i noticed in all those watches i've owned before is that i never answered calls nor texts from a watch. So this watch simply displaying what comes in is perfect. Heart rate seems to be accurate so far (latest Update). The step counts are a bit off (comparing on my phone), this is something i ordinarily wouldn't mind, but i think it uses that to calculate calories burned? Bluetooth has not once disconnected from my phone and battery life is extremely good! Bravo! The ONLY thing (as mentioned in other review here), is that i DO NOT like the wrist flick scroll through options feature. I hope Huawei releases a firmware that can make an Off\Disable button for that.

Been a very nice fitness tracker and watch. No frills helps with long battery life. Sleep tracking is very accurate. Lately been getting some skin rashes on the wrist where I wear it so skeptical of using it for long hours in general.

I had been thinking about getting a smart watch for a while but didn't know if I would actually get enough use out of it to warrant spending several hundred dollars on some of the top brands. So I found this Huawei watch and it seemed perfect for what I needed. I don't need a ton of features like the top watches have because I'm going to have my phone within 20 feet of me otherwise the watch disconnects anyway. So I didn't need to watch videos or get every application that's on my phone on my watch. I just wanted to get notifications from text messages, calendar appointments, and emails. I also wanted basic health data like steps, distance, and calories. And I needed a watch I could swim with so I didn't have to worry about getting it wet. This watch is perfect for that. It is simple to use and understand and because it doesn't have all the bells and whistles like other smart watches, it's very easy to learn and understand and navigate. I love the round face because it looks like an actual watch. It lasts probably about a week before I will charge it which is a vast improvement over the 18 hours the apple watch gives. The magnetic charger is really nice. There are a few different faces you can choose from so it would be nice to have a bit more variety. I also would like a color display but the monochrome display is one of the reasons the battery life is so good. I don't use the "flick the wrist" to flip through the menu because it is a bit finnicky. The screen also doesn't work as well if your fingers are wet or sweaty. I like the quick disconnect straps so I can change out the rubber band for a metal one I bought easily. It's also a great size for me. I have pretty small wrists, I guess average for a woman, but I enjoy big watches. This one is probably as small as I would go, but looks nice on my wrist. Overall, I would highly recommend.

Love the look and design of the device. Monochrome in my personal beliefs is the way to go with these watches to extend battery life and give it a sleek professional look which this pulls off well, especially with certain watch faces for whatever occasion you are attending and the ability to replace the band with any you buy online. Did I mention it's waterproof with a swimming tracker function! Also on average I would get about 4 days battery life out of this that's with tackling a 45 minute workout session at least everyday those 4 days, this makes the heart rate sensor start on which reduced the battery life from 6 to 4 days but if say just regular use to could steps you definitely will get 5 days before it needs a charge. Downside would be the pedometer adds about a thousand steps every 3 thousand taken. That's a pretty significant flaw but hopefully will get fixed with a future firmware update once the Huawei watch two settles. The app also needs a lot of work. You can track your runs on GPS only when activated on the phone but then didn't display on the watch but will save a map of your run route. If you start a run from your watch it will still use the gps from your phone but it won't save a map of your run route. This still is a solid device for the money that is way more esthetically playing then anything you will find in the fitness watch section. It gets the job done, you just have to do some math till they fix the pedometer or raise your goal amount so you know where you really are at. Definitely recommend this though too anyone looking for a cheap but hourly useful fitness tracker that's easy on the eyes!
