Devices such as sports bracelets and watches have been at the top of fitness trends worldwide for years. Every time they come with more advances that allow us to monitor our health and physical activity in detail. An example of these advances is the new Huawei Watch Fit 2, improved version of its predecessor Huawei WatchFit. We have tested it and we will tell you what its outstanding features are.
Huawei Watch Fit 2: design and aesthetic features
About two years after the launch of the first Huawei Watch Fit, its second version that adds extra updates to the good qualities that it already had in its initial version.
Dimensions and weight
The Huawei Watch Fit 2 has some dimensions of 46 x 33.5 x 10.8mm that make it not excessively large, but that allows you to display everything on the screen accurately. In other activity bracelets with smaller dimensions, it would not be possible to appreciate all the information such as graphs and exercises that this smartwatch does allow us.
Long-lasting battery to stay connected all day
the battery lasts between seven days with heavy use and ten days with typical use to monitor heart rate, sleep, etc. It has fast charging for those days that we are going to use it, but we have not charged it before. With a single charge we have enjoyed eight days with quite high use, so this watch guarantees at least a week of duration with each full charge.
Dispose of WiFi 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity. YOU to download updates, connect with other devices, update maps, and much more.
1.74-inch FullView display
One of the main differences between a sports watch and an activity bracelet is the size of the screen. The Huawei has a 1.74-inch AMOLED touch screen that takes advantage of every cornerframed with rounded finishes that give it a beautiful and elegant design to be worn at any time.
The screen responds very well to touch and has many shortcuts when we scroll the screen sideways or up and down, without having to go to the main menu. we can too choose different wallpapers that also have shortcuts for utilities such as music or calls. Its resolution of 336 x 480 pixels allows you to see all its functions clearly.
On the watch itself, or from the Huawei health application, it is possible modify the main screen and put it to our liking. There are many free watch face options and others that we can download for about two or four euros.
In this way we will avoid always getting tired of the same sphere, and we can also modify it according to the use that we are going to give it: a more sporty aspect for our moments of physical activity and a more elegant option for the rest of the time.
Set yourself as wallpaper
Another option to continue changing the appearance of our clock is to select a photo from our mobile and transfer it to the wallpaper with a touch between mobile and watch.
We have not been able to carry out this option because our mobile does not have the NFC technology, an essential feature for this. We only need that NFC technology and the Huawei health application to transfer the image from the phone to the screen of our watch.
Three strap options for all tastes
The Huawei Watch Fit 2 has three editions that allow us to choose seven colors to find the design that best suits us. In our case we have tried the gray leather Classic edition, an option that we quite liked as it is a hybrid between the Active edition (sportier) and the Elegant edition (brighter).
In addition to the quick change of sphere that we have described above, we can also change the color of our strap with a simple click. It is impossible to get tired of this Huawei model since it allows us to vary it quickly.
Extra features of the Huawei Watch Fit 2
Little by little, smartwatches have been introducing new technologies and improving existing ones. The Huawei watch has an optical sensor to measure pulses at all times from the wrist. It shows us the steps taken, the distance and the speed thanks to its accelerometer, gyroscope and geomagnetic sensor for adventures on the go.
Now that the summer season is here, we can enjoy outdoor water activities while we continue to monitor our health. It is water resistant up to 5 ATMso it will also give us information on physical activities such as swimming.

Connectivity throughout the day
Control your mobile without touching it
One of the main objectives of smart watches and fitness trackers is that we do not have to manipulate our mobile to do the basic tasks: calls, messages and notifications. When we go out for physical activity, or at any time, we can answer calls thanks to the built-in speaker and microphone, as well as see notifications in case we expect an important message.
One of the improvements that we liked the most is the possibility of control the music from our wrist. The first thing we will have to do is download the music that we like to train and we can play it from our Huawei Watch Fit 2.
We can listen to music from the speaker of the clock itself or with wireless headphones without having to carry the phone with us. Up to 5,000 songs fit on this watchmore than enough, right?
Photos of your physical exercise
Another function of the Huawei is to serve as a remote control to take a picture of us without having to set a timer. This feature is very useful on those days when you go for a run watching the colors of the sunset or want to immortalize any scene while exercising.
Avoid a sedentary lifestyle and take care of yourself
Break with sedentary lifestyle
Do you spend a lot of time sitting and forget to move? Do you hardly drink water during the day? This Huawei smart watch vibrates and warns us about this type of thing so that we can get to work. A detail that we want to highlight is that we can also ask you to remind us to smile Because there are days that we forget.
It contains exclusive animations of exercises to break the sedentary lifestyle from time to time. It also has voice and video guided warm-ups to do before running, pedaling or any activity that we are going to do. At the end of the activity, he also guides us to calm down with a stretching session.

Up to 97 training modes fit on our wrist with which to innovate and try new activities: hiking and excursions, outdoor or indoor activities such as swimming in a pool or in open water, etc. Can program routines and training plans in the application and follow them with our sports watch.

Monitoring 24 hours a day, 365 days a year
Huawei Watch Fit 2 records vital health functions: heart rate, oxygen saturation, sleep, and stress, among others. give some very accurate data both at rest and in motion of all these health parameters.
Heart rate and oxygen saturation
The heart rate and oxygen saturation are recorded throughout the day, so that we can evaluate the intensity of our training and check values such as the heart rate at rest that tells us if we are doing well or if we are training too much when these heart rates rise at rest. In addition, it is measured at night, which is the best time to do it.
Sleep quality
It is possible to program the time we want to go to sleep and the time we want to do it to guarantee a number of hours of rest and a routine for going to bed. Every day we will have record of how long we have sleptthe time in a more or less deep phase and if we have got up or woken up during the night.
stress level
Stress is another of the registers that our clock will count day by day to know if we are going through a more stressful stage. All these variables mean that we are in healthy ranges because if we get out of them, it alerts us.
