For a smart watch to be considered a running watch, it needs to offer something a little bit special. It needs to be lightweight and comfortable enough to wear for long runs and have a battery life to match, plus it needs to provide clear and accurate data to track your runs, from your health metrics to the route you took.
Huawei's latest model certainly does all the and more. Our Huawei Watch GT Runner 2 review gave the watch high praise for its compact design, redesigned GPS hardware and deep feature set that suits both runners and everyday health tracking. A serious contender for one of the best running watches to be released in 2026.
