Huawei has officially launched the Watch 6 series globally. The new lineup comes in two sizes, along with a ceramic Pro model, and brings several health and fitness upgrades over last year’s Watch 5.

The design is one of the main changes. The 42mm Watch 6 weighs just 38g and measures 10.2mm thick, making it the lightest smartWatch Huawei has ever made. The 46mm version uses a stainless-steel case for a more durable build. You get four finishes across the standard line, plus a new Arcglow look and a flexible lug-to-strap connection that Huawei says makes the EasyCross strap sit more naturally against your wrist.

The Watch 6 Pro is even better; the 46mm Space Edition features a black ceramic bezel with gold accents, while the 43mm model uses Nano-Tech Ceramic for the entire Watch. Huawei says it is the first fully ceramic Watch in its lineup.

Huawei Watch 6 Series Specifications

As for health and wellness features, the Watch 6 series utilizes an upgraded X-TAP sensor. Building on the system used in the Watch 5, the new sensor can track 11 health metrics instead of 10. These cover areas including basic health, endocrine, cardiovascular, and respiratory health.

You still get Health Glance for a quick read on all of it, and Huawei’s added a Diet clover to the existing exercise, sleep, and mood tracking, rounding out its four-leaf-clover health model into something closer to a full daily routine tracker.

The Watch 6 series also introduces a wrist-rotation gesture for easier one-handed navigation. It supports eSIM for phone-free connectivity, and has a Safety Check feature that shares your location with family members in real time.

Fitness tracking includes more than 100 workout modes, with features from Huawei’s flagship GT series. The Pro models also get access to the Expedition app. Huawei is including MultiPass with every Watch 6 Series model. It comes with three months of Huawei Health+ and up to 90 days of free access to apps such as Headspace and komoot. Buyers also get two years of Worry-Free Care covering the display, battery, back cover, and crown.

Pricing and Availability

The Huawei Watch 6 launches in the UK from September 23 at £399.99, with the Watch 6 Pro starting at £599.99, both through the Huawei Store and Amazon. If you buy between September 23 and October 26, you can save £50 on the MSRP.

Huawei’s starting to tease what’s coming at its big global event in Munich on September 2, and the first two products they’re highlighting are the Watch 6 and the nova 16s Pro.

They announced the Munich gathering last week, but kept the actual products pretty quiet until now. Fresh promo material confirms that both the Huawei Watch 6 and the nova 16s Pro will be unveiled there.

Official posts describe the Watch 6 as lightweight and comfortable, with a refined design, smarter features, better health tracking, and AI expected to analyze a wider range of sports. It’ll share the stage with a few other wearables too, including the flagship WATCH GT 7 Series and the next WATCH D3 (the one that measures blood pressure).

For context, the current Huawei Watch 5 already packs some impressive tech. It’s built around the multi-sensing X-TAP sensor that lets you tap your fingertip for a quick, accurate blood oxygen reading in about 10 seconds, plus a one-tap Health Glance that pulls up to 10 key metrics like heart rate, ECG, HRV, stress and more in under a minute.

You also get phone-free eSIM calling and navigation, over 100 workout modes (including pro-level stuff like golf and freediving), smart gestures for hands-free control, a bright LTPO AMOLED display, solid battery life of up to 4.5 days on the larger model in standard mode (or longer in saver mode), and a premium build with options like aerospace-grade titanium or stainless steel cases in both 42 mm and 46 mm sizes.

Then there’s the nova 16s Pro. This one is all about the cameras. It packs a 200MP main sensor, with an RYYB-style color filter used on both the main and selfie cameras. Huawei claims the setup delivers noticeably more accurate colors. The series is focused on strong portraits and an all-around solid phone experience.

The Munich event looks like it’ll cover a pretty wide range — smartwatches, tablets, phones, and even audio stuff like the FreeBuds Neo series. As we get closer to September 2, expect Huawei to drip out more specs. For now, the teasers are leaning hard on two things: a watch that actually feels good to wear all day, and a phone that takes color seriously.
