The larger model has a stated battery life of 4.5 days in standard mode, while the smaller model offers around 3 days. Both have an AMOLED display with brightness of up to 3,000 nits and support Android and iOS phones.
Design and build
The smaller 42 mm model weighs 48 to 51 grams and uses either 904L or 316L steel, depending on the version. The purple version has a titanium body. When choosing between models, it is worth considering the size as well as the appearance and materials, since size also affects the stated battery life.
Display
The AMOLED display reaches a brightness of up to 3,000 nits. High brightness can make it easier to read outdoors, for example when checking workout data or navigating in sunlight.
Sensors and health features
The watch has an optical heart rate sensor 6.0, an ECG sensor and sensors for temperature, barometric pressure and light. It also includes a gyroscope, compass and a side-mounted X-TAP sensor, which offers another way to interact with the watch.
Sensor data can help users track activity and changes in readings. It should not, however, be treated as a substitute for a medical examination or diagnosis.
Connectivity and compatibility
The Huawei Watch 5 supports Bluetooth 5.2 and Wi-Fi 6 on the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. For positioning, it uses dual-frequency GNSS on L1 and L5, with support for GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, BeiDou and QZSS. This is useful for recording routes and navigating outdoors.
The watch is compatible with smartphones running Android 9.0 or later or iOS 13.0 or later. Compatibility with an operating system does not necessarily mean every feature works the same way on both platforms.
Battery life
- 46 mm version: 4.5 days in standard mode and up to 11 days in power-saving mode.
- 42 mm version: Around 3 days in standard mode and 7 days in power-saving mode.
The smaller model therefore needs charging more often. Actual battery life depends on how the watch is used and which mode is selected.
