Better Than Apple Watch, Half The Price! | Huawei Watch Fit 3 Review

Ғылым және технология

Reviewing the Huawei Watch Fit 3, now a fully-fledged smartwatch rather than a fitness tracker, with among the best battery life at this budget price. The Huawei Watch Fit 3 is less than half the price vs that Apple Watch (and almost £100 cheaper than the SE model). Yet you get far superior longevity, a gloriously bright and punchy screen and impressive customisation. Health tracking is feature-packed as always too, although you don't have any contactless payment action here.
For a 15% discount, use code ATS15FIT before June 18, right here: consumer.huawei.com/uk/wearab...
To setup your Huawei Watch Fit 3, you'll need to download that Health app and then it only takes a matter of minutes. I had it paired to my Android phone and working in no time. You can select a watch face from a wide and varied selection and change the cards setup, so your Watch Fit 3 suits your needs.
Exercise tracking includes over 100 types, while you can of course monitor your sleeps and everyday health stats. The Huawei Watch Fit 3 is absolutely a bargain for the budget price of £139, but are you tempted? Let us know your thoughts on this affordable smartwatch and Apple Watch SE rival below!

    Watch Fit 1 user here, and it's awesome. It only has one button (defaults to main menu), which is great when the screen is wet and unresponsive. The addition of the wheel in the WF3 feels extraneous to me, since you can scroll using the screen. It's also an additional protrusion that takes space on the wrist. But, it might be a boon when trying to scroll in a wet situation. Love the GPS of my WF1, its sleep tracking, accurate heart rate monitor, handy stopwatch / countdown timer. I even use the flashlight feature occasionally, and it's very useful. I don't miss calls in noisy environments when my phone is not in my pocket, because the watch vibrates on my wrist. I can read SMS on it, quicker than checking on the phone. So much convenience in a cheap device.

    I've used & had no real issues with my Huawei Band 4, 5, & 6. I skipped the 7, and now have the Huawei Band 8. Only problems that I have with the Band 8 is that the touchscreen can be a bit temperamental if you don't tap the EXACT SPOT that the screen wants you to tap... And also, the sleep tracker is the worst of every Huawei Band that I've used. It's fairly accurate (when it works 🙄)... But sometimes it totally skips over times when I am actually sleeping 😴, and tells me that I wasn't sleeping, when i actually was 🤷🏼‍♂️. Was hoping it would get fixed wit a firmware update by now... But no such luck yet 🤦🏼‍♂️. The band you're reviewing here is a larger version of the Band 8, but with a few more functions. I honestly don't see it as being worth $100 more than a Huawei Band 8. I picked up my Band 8 for under $30 USD💵. Cheers!... Enjoy the channel & reviews 😁👍.

    Note for anyone who doesn't like proprietary straps: if a watch gets popular enough there's a good chance a 3rd party company will make some form of adapter that will allow you to attach a standard strap (like a 22mm strap) to the watch. The only drawback with those adapters is that they can't really be built in a way that doesn't add length to the watch's arms (or whatever you call the parts that the strap attaches to; I'm a bit clueless on watch part terminology) but I've found this to be a minor issue in most cases.
