HUAWEI WATCH Ultimate 55020DSF Review: Zirconium Smartwatch with Two-Week Battery Life

The HUAWEI WATCH Ultimate 55020DSF is not your average smartwatch. From its innovative zirconium-based liquid metal construction to its impressive battery life and specialized features, this watch is designed for those who demand the best. After weeks of rigorous testing, including hikes, swims, and even a few rounds of golf, I’m ready to share my comprehensive review.

The standout feature is undoubtedly the zirconium-based liquid metal case. It feels incredibly premium, far exceeding the typical stainless steel found in most smartwatches. The material’s claimed durability is impressive, and it certainly seems to hold up to daily wear and tear. Beyond the material, the features are equally compelling. The Golf Course Mode is surprisingly accurate and helpful, providing valuable distance information and even suggesting club selection. The offline contour maps are a game-changer for outdoor enthusiasts, offering peace of mind even without cellular connectivity. The 100-meter water resistance is another highlight, allowing for serious swimming and even diving.

Beyond the adventure features, the HUAWEI WATCH Ultimate offers all the standard smartwatch functionality you’d expect: sleep tracking, heart rate monitoring, notification management, and more. The AMOLED display is vibrant and clear, even in direct sunlight.

The HUAWEI WATCH Ultimate 55020DSF lived up to its two-week battery life claim during my testing. With moderate usage, including notifications, activity tracking, and some use of the GPS, I consistently exceeded a week and a half on a single charge. The fast charging is a welcome bonus, allowing for a quick top-up when needed. Performance is snappy and responsive. Navigating menus and accessing features is intuitive and smooth.
