It also comes with 5ATM water resistance. It has a wide array of features, like an eight-channel PPG sensor. You also get L1/L5 Dual Frequency GNSS for precise location tracking alongside 12 animated fitness courses. It can track your sleep as well.
The new Honor smartwatch has support for over 100 workout modes, out of which it can auto-detect six workouts. It also includes 44 standard fitness motion demonstrations.

It can even last up to 30 hours with continuous GPS usage, and Honor says that the GS 3 can provide a full day’s use with a 5-minute charge.
