Honor Watch 5 Unveiled: Large Display, Long-Lasting Battery, and Enhanced Features

So, Honor just dropped its new smartwatch, the Honor Watch 5, alongside the Magic V3 foldable phone. It’s the successor to the Honor Watch 4, and it’s got some notable upgrades. The Watch 5 boasts a larger and brighter 1.85-inch AMOLED display with a 450 x 390px resolution and 1,000 nits peak brightness. That’s a significant boost from the previous model!

The smartwatch has a 6-series aluminum frame with a rotating knob for easier navigation, as well as a speaker and microphone for Bluetooth calls. And, with an IP68 rating and 5ATM waterproofing, you can take it for a swim without worrying about it getting damaged.

The Watch 5 can track all the usual fitness activities and comes with on-device GPS positioning. It pairs via Bluetooth 5.2 and has 4GB of onboard storage for storing music playlists. The software side is covered by Honor’s MagicOS 8.

One of the highlights of this new smartwatch is its improved health tracking features. You’ll get Honor’s Scientific Sleep Management, Healthy Morning Report, and Quick Health Scan, which will help you stay on top of your overall health.

The battery life is also a major selling point. With a 480mAh silicon-carbon battery and Honor’s OS Turbo X system-level energy consumption optimizer, you can get up to 15 days of battery life on a single charge, depending on your usage.

Honor Watch 5 will be available in Black, Gold, and Green colors, but pricing and availability are still under wraps for now.
