The Huawei Watch Ultimate utilizes advanced technology for heart rate monitoring, primarily relying on Huawei's TruSeen 5.0+ heart rate sensor. This technology is designed to provide accurate real-time heart rate measurements, especially during strenuous workouts. The watch employs eight photoelectric sensors and two groups of light sources, combined with an upgraded AI algorithm and a curved glass lens. These components work together to enhance the accuracy of heart rate readings, ensuring reliable data even in intense physical activities.
For continuous heart rate monitoring, users can choose between Smart mode and Real-time mode. Smart mode adjusts the measurement interval based on the user's activity level, taking readings more frequently during high-intensity activities and less often during low-intensity activities. This mode helps conserve battery life while still providing relevant data. In contrast, Real-time mode continuously monitors heart rate once per second, regardless of activity intensity, though it consumes more power.
The watch also supports ECG measurements and can detect premature heartbeats, alerting users to potential heart conditions. Additionally, it offers features like arterial stiffness detection, which uses high-precision ECG and PPG sensors to assess cardiovascular health. Overall, the Huawei Watch Ultimate's heart rate monitoring technology is robust and designed to support both casual users and athletes with precise health tracking capabilities.
