There are two buttons on the right side of the case, one is a 3D rotating crown with haptic feedback, which can be more refined and convenient operation by rotating the dial when some sliding operations are carried out, and the vibration feedback will also be accompanied by vibration feedback when rotating the crown, and the damping and precision of the knobs are also remarkable.
The buttons at the bottom are the new ECG buttons, which integrate the electrode technology in the buttons that were originally directly exhaled for motion monitoring, and the surface adopts titanium-colored matte coating process, equipped with high-fidelity signal electrode materials, which can accurately sense heart rate information, can accurately collect ECG anytime and anywhere, and can measure data more accurately when testing ECG and pulse waves.
The back is still a high-strength ceramic back cover, the center of the use of heart rate lenses that can better fit the wrist, through the precise curvature protrusion and wrist bone fit perfectly, while the slightly protruding spherical structure is also conducive to perspiration during wearing, to avoid sweat accumulation on the sensor recognition effect.
Huawei's Watch GT 3 Pro also uses TruSeen 5.0+ technology, which makes the monitoring of heart rate and health values more accurate through the redesign of the sensor area on the back. The HiFiEncoder deep neural network algorithm with high-definition lossless integration increases the data processing volume by 4 times, reduces the signal loss rate, and comprehensively improves the accuracy of heart rate monitoring, which brings the benefit of improving the accuracy of measurement values in various scenarios.
It is worth mentioning that this generation of Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro has a very good waterproof effect, in the common IP68 (when the shell is temporarily soaked in 1.5 meters deep water for 30 minutes, it will not cause harmful effects. ) and 5ATM waterproof (can withstand 50 meters of static water depth pressure and last for 10 minutes), to meet the provisions of the diving equipment engineering standard EN13319, can support the maximum depth of 30 meters free diving movement, and this standard also means that the equipment in the high and low temperature environment, brine environment has been tested, salt water resistance, high and low temperature resistance, shock resistance, external force resistance, etc. have passed the strict test standards, in the free diving sports within 30 meters depth to wear and use with ease.
In order to better play the advantages of diving depth, Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro has added a freediving sports mode, with the newly added depth barometer can display professional data including diving ascent speed, real-time depth, maximum depth, diving time, surface rest time, and number of dives in real time; it also supports surface satellite positioning, which can accurately locate the position before entering the water; with diving alarm reminder function, users can set depth reminders and alarms, time reminders and alarms.
For novice diving users, Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro has added a closed air test, which records a single aeration time through the countdown of the watch, and can also perform a comprehensive aeration test to make a more thoughtful planning deployment of its own diving sport by recording the time.
In addition to diving sports, the Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro also enhances the golf course sports mode. The previous generation of GT 2 Pro records professional data such as swing speed, swing rhythm, up and down time through more accurate GPS positioning and golf practice mode.
On the GT 3 Pro, the stadium mode comes, with a built-in 300+ new course map in China, providing a complete view of the distribution of fairways, greens and obstacle areas, allowing users to easily grasp the overall situation of the course and the composition of the functional area. According to the accurate GPS positioning capability, the distance from the user's current location to the front, center and trailing edge of the green can be displayed in real time. Provide a strong guarantee for users to win the green. The course mode also supports information such as wind speed and direction, green direction and green slope heat map, providing a number of data support for users to formulate batting strategies, with the overall situation in hand and the batting more handy.
At present, Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro has supported more than 100 sports types including the above-mentioned diving sports and golf course modes, whether it is daily leisure sports or professional sports such as triathlon, mountaineering, skiing and other professional sports can be thoughtful data recording, becoming a wrist sports record expert.
In addition to the exercise record, the Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro has also been upgraded in terms of personal health monitoring. ECG ECG analysis is already supported.
In order to make the data more accurate, Huawei's watch curved lens on the back of the Watch GT 3 Pro uses PVD coated electrodes, which can better fit with the skin and improve the quality of the ECG signal. The ECG button on the right side of the case is equipped with a high-fidelity signal electrode material to accurately sense heart rate information.
Simply place your hand smoothly on your lap or on your desk, and collect electromagnetic signals by gently touching your fingertips with the ECG button on the right, and you can measure heart data including sinus rhythm, atrial fibrillation, ventricular premature beats, atrial premature beats, etc., as well as pulse wave data including vascular elasticity results, measurement time, pulse wave conduction speed values, average heart rate, and other measurements.
Electrocardiography technology has been widely used in most smart watches, while pulse wave technology is relatively new, pulse wave conduction velocity (PWV) refers to the pressure wave conduction rate transmitted along the wall of the artery generated by each heartbeat of the heart, which is a convenient and effective means to assess the elasticity of blood vessels. In general, the faster the pulse wave velocity (PWV), the harder the blood vessels, and the slower the pulse wave conduction velocity (PWV), the softer the blood vessels.
Huawei and the China Medical Promotion Association initiated the Vascular Health Research Institute, based on the Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro's high-performance PPG and ECG sensors, which detect pulse wave conduction velocity, accurately screen for arteriosclerosis risk, provide professional health advice, and realize active vascular health management at home.
EcG/pulse fluctuation data and professional assessment recommendations will also be generated in the "Sports Health" app after the measurement is completed. If the system determines that there is a health risk to the heart or arteries, it provides professional medical advice.
In addition to these, huawei Watch GT 3 Pro also supports body temperature detection and blood oxygen monitoring, which can be measured by sensors for wrist body temperature, and estimated body temperature, and better understand their own state through data form. This body temperature data will also be presented in the app with different color indicators, giving timely warning in case of abnormalities.
The Healthy Life Project launched by Huawei and the Chinese Preventive Medicine Association is also built into the Sports Health App, and it is brought to the Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro in the form of "Healthy Clover". Users can set daily health punch card tasks according to their own conditions, such as walking, medium and high intensity exercise, breathing training, regular getting up, going to bed early, smiling every day, daily mindfulness, medication reminders, etc., each completed health task punch card updates the status of the leaf, the task is completed, will light up the healthy clover.
At the ecological level, Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro has a built-in Hongmeng OS, which can directly switch health data/motion/watch face and music playback functions from the hyperterminal on the mobile phone, and further expands the number and categories of supported apps, covering Applications such as Baidu Map, AutoNavi Map, and Air Travel In travel scenarios; in video and audio entertainment scenarios, it supports applications such as Himalaya; it supports Applications such as Fit Fitness and Mint Health in sports health scenarios; in addition, lemon drinking water, Timed reminders and efficiency improvement applications such as calculators meet the application needs of consumers in many aspects and all scenarios.
As the new flagship of Huawei's Watch GT series, the Watch GT 3 Pro continues to improve on the basis of the previous generation' near-perfection, upgrading the type and accuracy of motion monitoring again, while also achieving better ECG/pulse data monitoring with the new ECG button, becoming a real wrist health device that can come in handy. In terms of daily use, Hongmeng OS ensures the connectivity between cross-devices and the expansion of App/NFC functions in life, with a design that is more in line with the favorite appearance of young user groups, Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro is definitely the most worthwhile smart watch product to buy at present.
