![]() While this was a sore point on the pricier Watch GT series, it doesn’t feel as restrictive on the cheaper Watch Fit, which is meant to be an entry level sports watch and nothing more. It’s simple and easy to use but limited as there’s no third party app support or NFC for payments. If you’ve used a Huawei Watch in the past, you’ll feel right at home with the Watch Fit, which uses the same Lite OS found on the Watch GT series. It’s also plenty bright and readable under direct sunlight with decent vibrancy that makes watch faces pop off the screen. ![]() The display is responsive as you tap and swipe through the Watch Fit’s easy to use interface. The tall aspect ratio is a great design choice here that keeps the watch slim while displaying a good amount of information on screen. It’s a display you’d expect to find on more pricier fitness watches. Over on the front, there’s a plush 1.64-inch AMOLED screen with a crisp 280 x 456 resolution, surrounded by small bezels. However, as far as we know you can't just replace it with any third party strap it has to be an official Watch Fit strap that works with the small locking mechanism. You can poke a sharp object or fingernail into a tiny groove on the back to remove a small locking mechanism that holds the straps in place. Update: We've found out that the straps on the Watch Fit can come off, although it's tricky. Other than that, the Watch Fit is one of the most comfortable fitness watches we’ve tested and you’ll have no problems wearing it all day or taking it to bed. Another sore point is the protruding sensor bump on the bottom that tends to dig into your skin if you strap the watch on tightly, and gets sticky within a few minutes into a workout. You can’t swap the straps on the Watch Fit, which is a shame. The Watch Fit is also 5ATM water resistant meaning it can survive a trip to the pool up to 50m. The watch’s sensors are housed at bottom of the chassis, which has a smooth matte plastic finish that’s easy to wipe off and resists sweat accumulation. It’s slim at just 10.7mm thick, and with a weight of 21g (without straps) you’ll barely feel it on your wrist, making it super comfy for all day wear. Update: We've found out that the watch face is made of polymer material and not metal as mentioned above. ![]() There’s a lone flat button tapered on the right side of the watch face’s smooth metal frame and 2.5D curved glass covers the surface, giving the watch a polished premium look. The Huawei Watch Fit has a slim and neat design that looks like what you’d get if you squeezed an Apple Watch. (Image credit: Abbas Jaffar Ali) Design and display
