Mini Workout Mode
The mini workout feature includes 30 short exercises that require no equipment. These range from stretches to desk exercises, each taking one to two minutes.
The panda watch face reminds you to move after prolonged sitting, making reminders feel less clinical.
Battery Life
HUAWEI claims up to 10 days with light use, 7 days with normal use, and 4 days with the always-on display (AOD) enabled.
In testing, with AOD always on, the watch lasted 5-6 days. The last 5% battery can still track sleep through the night.
GPS use drains the battery faster, providing about 20-25 hours of continuous tracking. Real-world use typically requires charging once a week, unless tracking long outdoor activities daily.
Charging uses a proprietary magnetic dock. A full charge takes about an hour, while a 10-minute charge provides roughly a day of use.
Who Should Buy It
The Fit 5 Pro suits several types of users.
Fitness enthusiasts who want more data than a basic band but don't want to spend over £400 on a Garmin or Apple Watch will find it appealing.
Cyclists and runners who need accurate GPS and detailed metrics without a bulky device are also good candidates.
People who want health tracking like ECG and sleep analysis without paying flagship prices will appreciate the value.
The watch is ideal for Android users, especially those with HUAWEI phones, who get the full feature set.
Summary
The HUAWEI Watch Fit 5 Pro is a capable fitness watch that punches above its weight in cycling and running features.
It refines a solid formula without overcomplicating things. Health sensors are genuinely good for the price, and GPS is accurate with quick response.
Battery life is adequate but could be better; a full week with AOD on would eliminate the need to carry a charger.
At £249, the watch offers features that cost significantly more from other brands.
For those who prioritize fitness and health over apps and flashy tech, the Fit 5 Pro is a strong choice.
The watch also includes a hidden feature for sleep breathing awareness, which helps identify the risk of potential sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome.
