Huawei has begun distributing a new global update for the Watch Ultimate, identified as version 5.0.0.21(SP1C00M02). This update comes after the introduction of firmware version 5.0.0.13, which was the initial global HarmonyOS 5.0 update for the Watch Ultimate.
Update Details
Reports indicate that firmware version 5.0.0.21(SP1C00M02) is now available for the standard Huawei Watch Ultimate models in both Voyage Blue and Expedition Black (currently priced at €573 on Amazon DE). However, the Watch Ultimate Green model has not yet received this update. The update itself is fairly small, at only 36.78 MB. According to the change log, this release offers optimizations for system stability in “specific situations.” Sadly, there’s no additional information to clarify what exact enhancements have been made.
Missing Features
One significant feature that’s missing from this 5.0.0.21 update is the NFC payments capability, which was previously announced for the Watch Ultimate, Watch GT 5, and Watch GT 5 Pro last year. The company had indicated that this feature would be available to users within the first half of 2025. Users of the Huawei Watch Ultimate smartwatch can download firmware version 5.0.0.13(SP2C00M02) along with future updates through the Huawei Health app.
