Huawei Watch GT 3 and FreeBuds Lipstick Announced

In addition to the European debut of the nova 9, Huawei announced a pair of new smartwatches called the Watch GT 3, as well as a new pair of wireless earbuds called the FreeBuds Lipstick.

Watch GT3 comes in 42mm and 46mm sizes and essentially the two models represent slightly modified versions of the Huawei Watch 3 and Watch 3 Pro, with the notable omission on the new models being the lack of eSIM, although you can still make calls from your connected phone via Bluetooth.

The 42mm version comes with a 1.32-inch AMOLED display, while the larger 46mm model gets a roomier 1.46-inch AMOLED panel. One of the more notable new features of the GT 3 series is Huawei’s Healthy Living Clover, which gives you daily challenges for exercise, sleep and walking and keeps you full all day long, similar to Apple Watch’s Rings. There’s also Huawei’s redesigned fifth-generation TruSeen optical heart rate sensor, on-device SpO2 measurements, and tracking for more than 100 sport modes.

Both GT 3 watches come with 4GB of onboard storage, offer 5ATM water resistance, and are compatible with Android and iOS phones. Battery endurance on the smaller 42mm model is estimated at seven days of use, while the larger version should get you double after 14 days.

Huawei Watch GT 3 42mm comes in at €329, while the 46mm GT 3 model retails for €349. Pre-orders are already open and those who order will receive a free pair of Huawei FreeBuds 4i wireless earphones. The official sale starts on November 10.

FreeBuds Lipstick looks just like FreeBuds 4, but comes in an exclusive red color and, as the name implies, comes with a stainless steel lipstick-shaped charging case.
