The HUAWEI WATCH D (HUW-WATCHD-BLK, B10-MLY, MLY-B10) promises a lot: accurate blood pressure monitoring from the wrist, comprehensive health tracking, and a stylish design. After weeks of wearing it daily, I’m ready to share my honest assessment of this innovative smartwatch.

The HUAWEI WATCH D boasts a compelling array of features. Beyond the headline-grabbing blood pressure monitoring, it offers ECG functionality, SpO2 tracking, sleep analysis, stress monitoring, and a surprisingly extensive library of workout modes (over 70!). The inclusion of a health community feature allows for easy sharing of health data with loved ones. The 1.64-inch touch display is responsive and easy to navigate, even with wet fingers.

The design itself is sleek and comfortable. The fluoroelastomer band is soft and durable, and the adjustable sizing ensures a comfortable fit for most wrists. The supplied charging cradle is simple and efficient.

The accuracy of the blood pressure readings is impressive, generally matching my readings from a traditional sphygmomanometer within the stated margin of error. However, consistency is key, and I found that taking multiple readings at different times provided a more accurate picture. The ECG functionality also performed reliably, providing clear readings and notifications when irregularities were detected. Sleep tracking was detailed and insightful, offering a breakdown of sleep stages and suggesting improvements to sleep hygiene. The battery life, while not quite reaching the advertised 7 days, consistently lasted 5-6 days with moderate use, which is still commendable.

While the workout tracking is comprehensive, the accuracy of calorie tracking and distance measurement varied slightly depending on the activity. This isn’t a major issue, but users should be aware that it is best suited for general fitness monitoring rather than high-precision athletic training. The skin detection feature is a nice addition but offers limited functionality at this point.

Pros:

• Accurate blood pressure monitoring.
• Reliable ECG functionality.
• Comprehensive health tracking.
• Comfortable and stylish design.
• Good battery life.
• User-friendly interface.

Cons:

• Blood pressure readings might need multiple attempts for accurate result.
• Some minor inconsistencies in workout tracking data.
• Battery life slightly below advertised claim.

The HUAWEI WATCH D is a sophisticated and well-executed smartwatch, particularly for those prioritizing health monitoring. Its ability to provide blood pressure measurements from the wrist is a game-changer. While it isn’t perfect, the positives significantly outweigh the negatives. I highly recommend the HUAWEI WATCH D to anyone seeking a comprehensive and convenient health-tracking device.
