The countdown to Huawei's new generation of smartwatches is almost over. The Chinese company has confirmed that it will officially unveil the Huawei Watch GT 7 and Huawei Watch GT 7 Pro next Wednesday, August 5th , after weeks of leaks and rumors that have revealed many of their features. Although some questions remain unanswered, the information gathered so far provides a fairly clear idea of ​​what to expect.
The Pro model, the most advanced in the series, is generating the most buzz. According to leaked promotional images and official teasers, the Watch GT 7 Pro maintains the design language of its predecessor , with an octagonal bezel and a round AMOLED display. However, new materials and finishes are expected that could set it apart from the previous generation.
Design and colors
The first hands-on images show that the Huawei Watch GT 7 Pro is slightly thicker than the GT 6 Pro , likely to accommodate a larger battery. The titanium alloy case will be available in several colors: according to various sources, the options include pine green, mirror orange, and carbon black, although previous leaks also mentioned silver and black. The sport strap has been redesigned for improved fit and comfort and will be offered in colors such as yellow, green, or black, depending on the version.
Regarding size, it appears the Pro model will be limited to a single 46mm option , while the standard Watch GT 7 will be available in 41mm and 46mm. This strategy is similar to that of the Watch GT 6 series, where the Pro was only offered in the larger size. The bezel features 24-hour and minute markers, and the digital crown and side button remain in the same position as the previous generation.
Specifications and availability
Huawei hasn't officially revealed the technical specifications of the Watch GT 7 Pro, but rumors suggest it will incorporate improvements in battery life, sensors, and sports tracking features . The current model, the Watch GT 6 Pro, already boasts a 3.000-nit AMOLED display, 24-day battery life, GPS, NFC, ECG, and a depth sensor for diving. The new model is expected to retain these features and refine them, possibly adding a sapphire crystal display and greater water resistance.
The launch event will take place on Wednesday, August 5, 2026, in China. While pricing and international availability dates are still unknown , Huawei is likely to share more details during the presentation. Those interested in Europe, and especially in Spain, will have to wait for the company to confirm the watch's arrival in Western markets, which typically happens weeks after the Asian launch.
All in all, the Watch GT 7 series promises to be a conservative yet solid evolution of the range, maintaining what works and introducing small but significant changes. The Huawei Watch GT 7 Pro is shaping up to be a high-end smartwatch designed for athletes and demanding users, with a design that prioritizes durability and functionality. We'll have to wait until Wednesday to learn all the details and confirm whether the leaks are accurate.
