The Huawei Watch GT 7 Pro will arrive in Arab countries on 4 October 2026. The model is aimed at users who engage in sports and monitor their health, with support for more than 110 workout modes and advanced monitoring features.
The GT 7 Pro series is positioned as the successor to the previous GT 6 models. It competes with the Garmin Forerunner and Apple Watch Ultra in the sports smartwatch segment. The price in Saudi Arabia starts at 999 riyals (about 266 US dollars). In the UAE, the series is available from 949 dirhams.
The key innovations are new modes for skiing and cycling with maps of more than 3000 resorts and descent analysis. For running and golf, professional metrics have been added: training load, VO2max and distance calculation taking terrain into account. The HUAWEI TruSense system includes ECG, assessment of coronary heart disease risk and blood sugar levels, as well as ovarian health monitoring in women. The Physical Readiness feature provides a daily assessment of the body's readiness based on sleep, heart rate variability and activity.
The titanium alloy case with a nano-ceramic bezel and sapphire glass ensures durability. The thickness is 11,3 mm, and the weight without the strap is 55,5 g. The AMOLED display measures 1,47 inches with a resolution of 466 × 466 pixels and brightness up to 3000 nits. The 867 mAh battery provides up to 21 days in light mode and 12 days with typical use. Fast wireless charging is supported. The watch runs on HarmonyOS 6.1, is compatible with Android and iOS, and has Bluetooth 6.0, NFC and multi-band GPS.
Among the limitations is the lack of independent reviews with real-world tests in Arab conditions. The manufacturer does not disclose exact comparisons with Garmin regarding GPS accuracy in the mountains. The price is higher than the base GT 7 version, but lower than flagship models with medical certifications.
Compared with the Garmin Forerunner 965, the watch wins in battery life and price, but falls short in the depth of running analysis. Against the Apple Watch Ultra, there is less integration with the Apple ecosystem, but better battery life and a focus on outdoor sports.
For those looking for a durable watch with an emphasis on training and basic medical monitoring at a reasonable price, the Huawei Watch GT 7 Pro will be a practical choice in the region.
