Honor's watch strategy changes

For a long time, Honor focused its most advanced watches on the Chinese market, with models like the Watch 5 Pro and Watch 5 Ultra never officially sold in Europe, despite being shown at MWC 2025. However, the Watch 6 has now entered the European market with a high-end positioning.

Discount during AliExpress 11.11 event

During the AliExpress 11.11 event, which started on Sunday, November 1, and runs until November 18, the Honor Watch 6 is available for less than 83 euros, which is less than half of its usual price. The official website lists a reference price of 179.90 euros, but with the code FRD1113, the price drops to 82.68 euros, saving about 97 euros or 54%.

Design and display of the Honor Watch 6

The Honor Watch 6 has a design that closely resembles the Huawei Watch GT 6 series, with a round case featuring hexagonal curves and classic horns to secure the strap. The OLED screen, measuring 464 x 464 pixels, covers 64% of the watch’s surface and is very bright, though the watch has a noticeable weight and thickness.

Performance and features

The Honor Watch 6 performs well in sports and health tracking, with good heart rate monitoring, decent GPS, and a comfortable battery life. It includes sleep analysis, a compass, and 4 GB of internal storage. It is also water-resistant with IP69 and 5ATM ratings, but it uses the phone’s GPS by default for tracking, which users should check before using.

Software limitations

The software on the Honor Watch 6 is a notable limitation. It does not support third-party apps, and contactless payments are not available in France, despite having an NFC chip. These issues contributed to a 7/10 rating in testing, though the hardware is strong.

Affordable option for smartwatch buyers

At the discounted price of under 83 euros, the Honor Watch 6 becomes a more attractive option for those seeking a stylish watch with reliable sports tracking. For more details on the testing, readers can refer to the full review of the Honor Watch 6.
