With this smartwatch, the team could see real-time insights on heart rate, cadence, calories burned, and speed, enabling cyclists to manage their exertion efficiently throughout each stage.

I was impressed by the HUAWEI Watch GT 5 Series' battery life. We were able to use the smartwatch throughout the race without interruption. It was an honor to lead the team. I’m proud and thankful that we gave our best till the last leg, MPT DriveHub Cycling Team's Mervin Corpuz.

In the Philippines, the device starts at just PHP 12,999.
