Huawei's latest flagship smartwatch is here to do battle with the Galaxy Watch 7 and the Google Pixel Watch 3. And thanks to a launch deal from the Chinese brand itself, you can currently grab the wearable with a bit of a discount.
Right now, you can pick up the Huawei Watch 5 with £50 off its £399 launch price with the addition of a coupon on Huawei's UK site. And, as a nice little sweetener, the brand is also throwing in an extra free strap as part of the deal.
The Huawei Watch 5 could probably fool you into thinking it's not a smartwatch, but a regular analogue timepiece from the days of old. In an age when wearables are leaning increasingly into sporty and rugged aesthetics, the Chinese brand's latest device has a classic and premium design language.
That's largely thanks to the circular case coming in a choice of stainless steel or titanium and you can get it in either 46mm or 45mm sizing. The LTPO display is secured behind sapphire glass and boasts an impressive 80% screen-to-body ratio.
Huawei's ace-in-the-hole for the Watch 5 is the device's "X-Tap" sensor located on the side of the watch. Placing your finger on it delivers an SpO2 reading in under 10 seconds while the One-Tap Health Glance feature checks over 11 different health metrics (including heart rate variability and skin temperature) in under a minute.
Even if you don't plan to use it for sports, there's over 100 sport modes included on the watch and thanks to eSIM support, you can load up hiking or running maps without having to bring your phone with you.
This deal makes the device even cheaper for a limited time, and Huawei is also throwing in that aforementioned free strap and five free premium watch faces that would normally cost a total of £24.
The Huawei Watch 5 works with both Android and iOS but for those already using a Huawei phone, it's a nice upgrade that's going to be £50 cheaper until June 29 when this offer ends.
