There's plenty to like here, from the extremely good battery life and decent water resistance rating to that always-on time display. Heart rate monitors aren't a given in this class of wearable and swim-tracking is an unexpected bonus. And it looks ok, especially if you swap in a third-party strap. But it feels cheap, and perhaps more worryingly, it isn't particularly cheap - the price tag isn't really low enough to compensate for the missing features (such as GPS) or the dim and sluggish display. We also find the watch face options rather poor, offering little useful information. Better deals may and indeed should become available (on Amazon it costs less in dollars than in pounds, which suggests the UK option is overpriced at present) but until then, we'd suggest looking elsewhere.

The Huawei Watch Fit Elegant edition offers all the same features as the Watch Fit Active edition, but with the addition of that stainless steel case and a more glossy-looking screen, that does give it a nicer look. Aside from that though, it’s unlikely anyone that picked up the first Fit will be desperate to get this one instead.

Nice stainless steel case; That great sharp screen looks sharper; Feature-packed;

Heart rate accuracy for exercise isn't great; Huawei Health not the most polished; Strap not removable

Perfect for the teens

I once forgot it was there and went searching everywhere for it, the I looked at my wrist and it was there

I love some features such as receiving msg - sms, WeChat, whats app, email notification and I can refuse phone call on watch fit display. I am very satisfactory to have get active reminder and Follow animation to do exercises

The Huawei Fit is like so many other wearables on the market. It's a good device on paper, but ultimately fails to dethrone Fitbit, Garmin and Samsung.

The Huawei Fit is a capable fitness smartwatch, but the software falls short of the competition.

The Huawei Fit is lightweight, comfortable to wear, and has week-long battery life. It can track daily activities, including heart rate, and can show notifications from your phone. It can be worn in the shower and while swimming.

The display is dull and touchscreen is difficult to operate when working out. There's no GPS or automatic exercise detection. The Huawei app lacks any sort of social features.

I bought this 2 weeks ago. A fantastic product with a huge range of options. A solid performer with all up to date features.

This fitness-focused watch certainly makes sense in terms of value, although the 'Watch' aspect of its name is a slight misnomer - think of it as a fitness tracker and you're closer to the mark.

Good screen; Plenty of features; Easy to use;

Mixed results on tracking; Average software experience; Few smartwatch options;

With built-in GPS and a larger screen than most of its fitness tracker rivals, the Watch Fit is excellent value for money

Built-in GPS; Animated workouts; Good-quality screen;

No altimeter; Heart-rate monitoring not always accurate; No third-party app support;
