A fresh update, version 5.0.0.101(C00M01), is being distributed to the Huawei Watch GT 5 and Watch GT 5 Pro devices. Users from various countries, including the UK, Germany, and Malaysia, have reported this update on Reddit.
Minor Update Details
Version 5.0.0.101 seems to be a minor update for the Watch GT 5 smartwatches, mainly focused on enhancing system stability. The change log does not provide specific details on what changes have been implemented. Notably, this release does not seem to include the new NFC payment feature that was revealed earlier in October. One user on Reddit mentioned that heart rate readings during an Indoor Walk workout seemed more precise, although they didn't provide any supporting data. This update comes after version 5.0.0.100, which was launched a few weeks ago and introduced a new RouteDraw Feature, a Calculator app, and more options for customizing gallery watch faces.
Phased Rollout
It looks like this is a gradual software rollout, and there’s no information on how many users of the Watch GT 5 and Watch GT 5 Pro (currently priced at €379 on Amazon) have received the update. To find out if it’s available for you, navigate to Settings > System & updates > Software updates on your watch or check for a notification in the Huawei Health app.
