Breaking the Smartwatch Stereotype with a Classic Design: The HUAWEI WATCH GT 2 Pro with its Moonphase Collection and 2 Weeks Battery Life Changes How Smartwatches are Perceived

With the onset of technology and smarter solutions, the smart wearables industry has seen a massive growth in demand, especially in regards to smartwatches. With users today wanting to be more connected on the go, have quick access to smart features and even stay on top of health, the smartwatch has become quite a popular accessory.

Huawei recognizes this and as a brand that is focused on providing its users with devices and features they would want, announced the latest iteration to its HUAWEI WATCH GT 2 series, the HUAWEI WATCH GT 2 Pro Moonphase collection. Mixing intelligent smartwatch technology and battery life with the design aesthetics of traditional luxury classic watches, the new HUAWEI WATCH GT 2 Pro changes the stereotype of how smartwatches are perceived with its premium high-end finish.

One such feature that steps it aside from other smartwatches is the implementation of a moon phase feature, which is seen more often on high-end luxury watches. Not only does this add a sense of elegance and brings in the premium feeling seen on classic watches, this feature also serves a functional purpose, as users can easily observe tide times, astronomy and moon phase on their wrists, aiding in easier exploration. The watch face will also display the time of sunrise and sunset every day, along with 8 moon phases.

The second aspect is in its design ethos. Instead of opting for just a functional approach, Huawei decided to improve on the aesthetic value as well, resulting in the gorgeous finish and features of the HUAWEI WATCH GT 2 Pro Moonphase collection. However, this also plays a role in the smartwatches durability, making it a practical choice as well. Its titanium body and ceramic back shell adds the luxurious touch to the smartwatch and further enhances durability and is complemented further with the scratch resistant sapphire glass for the 1.39inch AMOLED display upfront, all in a seamless and uniform strap and body design. The finishing touch is the wide range of watch faces for customization, along with an option for seamlessly setting any image from your Huawei smartphone as the watch face with a single tap with the One Hop Watch Face feature.*

Meanwhile, HUAWEI TruSleep™2.0 takes care of sleep tracking and HUAWEI TruRelax™ technology helps in maintaining stress levels.
