  3. The plastic rear cover of the Huawei Watch GT is secured by 4 Torx T3 screws (3.6 mm length). Applying an opening pick or fingernail to the small notch at the upper edge of the watch is enough to separate the bottom cover. At this point it's possible to open the watch but the display and back cover are still connected by a multi purpose interconnect flex cable.

  5. We go by the book and unplug the battery first by removing two Phillips #00 screws (2.9 mm length) and a metal shield. The battery is held in place by mild adhesive and comes out after some gentle heating and prying. The battery is held in place by mild adhesive and comes out after some gentle heating and prying.

  6. Unplugging the interconnect cable—carrying the vibration motor and the heart rate sensor—requires removing another pair of screws and a small metal shield. Seems like the interconnect flex cable can't be removed from the rear cover—bummer.

  10. The Huawei Watch GT earns a 5 out of 10 on our repairability scale (10 is the easiest to repair): Watch band replacements are fast and simple.

    • The Huawei Watch GT earns a 5 out of 10 on our repairability scale (10 is the easiest to repair):

    • Watch band replacements are fast and simple.

    • Easy glueless opening procedure.

    • The battery can be removed independently. The removal procedure needs some prying but isn't too bad.

    • The screen and the digitizer can't be removed separately.

    • The sensor assembly including the vibration motor is soldered to the back cover.

Hi Dominik,thanks for your share!

This article about HUAWEI WATHCH GT teardown is the second I’ve ever seem,and the other is there : 集微拆评 . Combine the two,you’ll found that all the ICs installed on the PCB is clear.

do you have any idea where i can buy the spare part for the screen?

I got mine fell, and the screen gradually becoming pitch black. Now it’s completely black, but i think all the other functionalities are okay.

Hi Mauricio,

thanks for your comment. Your objection was right and we made a correction in the repairability assessment. The screws securing the rear cover are Torx 3 (T3) screws.

Dominik Schnabelrauch -

They are y shape micro driver, torx I think, look like a Philips from the side but if you look directly down its in a Y or Mercedes car badge (emblem) shape. Pick them up quite cheep from screwfix or toolstation.
