HUAWEI WATCH FIT 5, FIT 5 Pro w/ comprehensive health tracking, 10-day battery, coming soon in PH

HUAWEI launches the WATCH FIT 5 Series in Thailand and is set to arrive in the Philippines soon.

HUAWEI WATCH FIT 5 Pro and FIT 5

Updated advanced health trackers

To recap, these are the updated versions of the highly popular WATCH FIT Series, which contributed to HUAWEI being the number 1 wearable brand in the Philippines.

They are composed of WATCH FIT 5 as the base variant and FIT 5 Pro for the improved edition.

Both models carry forward the series' recognizable design language, built with aluminum midframes and sharing the same two-button layout, a digital crown, and a shortcut button, positioned on the right side of the case. The difference is that the Pro variant adds a titanium bezel for a more premium finish. 

The WATCH FIT 5 is available in Purple, Green, White, Black, and Silver, while the WATCH FIT 5 Pro comes in Black, White, and Orange.

WATCH FIT 5 Pro display

On the display front, the WATCH FIT 5 Pro features slimmer bezels accommodating a larger 1.92-inch AMOLED touchscreen, 2.5D sapphire glass, and a peak local brightness of 3,000 nits. 

The standard WATCH FIT 5 comes with a 1.82-inch AMOLED display rated at 2,500 nits. Both watches support Always-On Display watch faces.

For health monitoring, both models are equipped with updated 6 LED and 6 PPG optical heart rate modules along with temperature sensors. 

On the other hand, the Pro model goes further, adding ECG and depth sensing capabilities. Both are rated at 5 ATM for water resistance, though the Pro is additionally certified for freediving at depths of up to 40 meters.

For fitness tracking, the series offers a broad range of sports modes, including an updated cycling mode. Both versions feature dual-band GNSS positioning, NFC, and Bluetooth 6.0, features that are expected to carry over to global variants.

Additional features include an onboard microphone, speaker, and a built-in recorder for capturing voice notes directly from the wrist.

Battery life is rated at up to seven days under normal use or ten days in a lighter usage mode. With Always-On Display enabled, users can expect around four days. Both models charge via a proprietary magnetic puck charger.
