Honor Watch 5 Pro Can Measure Blood Pressure and Last 15 Days on One Charge

Honor is making a big move in wearable tech this season with the Honor Watch 5 Pro, a smartwatch that doesn’t just count your steps — it keeps an eye on your blood pressure too. Launching officially on October 15, it blends premium design, comprehensive health tracking, and that signature Honor focus on smart endurance — promising up to 15 days of battery life on a single charge.

Visually, the Watch 5 Pro strikes a balance between elegance and ruggedness. It comes in three color variants — silver, gold with green accents, and a sportier black-bezel option — each sporting a classic metal case and a bezel engraved with minute indicators. You get the choice of leather or sport straps, and the overall design feels more like a traditional watch than a tech gadget.

Honor’s latest smartwatch isn’t just about looks, though. Under its 46mm frame sits a 1.5-inch AMOLED display (466×466 pixels) with punchy colors and deep contrast. The display is shielded by a durable glass layer and supports 5ATM water resistance, meaning it’s built for both workouts and weekend adventures. A 515mAh battery powers the device for up to two weeks — or 8–10 days with heavy use and always-on features enabled — which easily beats most smartwatches in its class.

Connectivity-wise, the built-in LTE modem with eSIM support lets you go truly phone-free. Whether you’re streaming music, making calls, or checking notifications, the Watch 5 Pro can handle it solo. It also includes 64MB of memory and 8GB of storage, plus built-in microphones and speakers for hands-free calls or voice commands.

But the real highlight here is health tracking. Alongside standard features like heart rate, SpO₂, and ECG, the Honor Watch 5 Pro introduces blood pressure monitoring — a feature even some flagship wearables skip. Using an optical PPG sensor, the watch estimates your blood pressure and categorizes it as high, normal, or low. The companion Honor Health app goes a step further, offering lifestyle tips to help balance your numbers.

That said, Honor clarifies that the readings are approximate, similar to how Samsung’s Galaxy Watch 8 handles blood pressure monitoring. It’s not meant for clinical diagnosis but gives users valuable awareness and trends over time. Combine that with metrics for altitude, burned calories, and compass navigation, and you’ve got a smartwatch built for both the gym and the outdoors.

The Watch 5 Pro runs on Honor’s proprietary system, designed for fast performance and reliable syncing with Android devices. And with its sleek metal frame, dual-button setup, and rotating digital crown, it’s the kind of tech accessory that looks as good with a blazer as it does on a hike.

In a market crowded with lookalike wearables, the Honor Watch 5 Pro feels like a confident statement — one that blends health, design, and endurance into a single wrist companion. It’s not just another fitness tracker; it’s Honor’s most complete smartwatch yet, and it might just be the affordable alternative to Samsung’s Galaxy Watch 8 Asia’s health-conscious crowd has been waiting for.
