Huawei deploys a new global update for the SmartWatch Watch Ultimate. Version 5.0.0.23 (SP1C00M03) of the firmware is another Harmonyos 5.0 update, a size of 36.82 MB. Harmonyos 5.0 arrived for this watch in December 20244lle brings features such as the management of offline cards and a new Golf application.
The update of version 5.0.0.23 is relatively minor, with two changes for users of the Watch Ultimate. First of all, there is an improvement for golfers: you can now switch between yards and meters as a unit of distance from golf courses. Second, there would be optimizations of the stability of the system, although no other detail is provided in the Modification Journal.
One of the notable absences of this update is the NFC payment function. This tool was officially announced in 2024 and recently arrived for users of Watch GT 5 and Watch GT 5 Pro in Europe. It allows them to record the details of their card in the Quicko Wallet, which means that they can make payments without smartphone or wallet. It is not known if or when this tool could happen on the Huawei Watch Ultimate.
Version 5.0.0.23 seems to be deployed by phases, although you do not know exactly when it reaches all users of the Huawei Watch Ultimate smartwatch (€ 531.99 on Amazon.de). The firmware can be downloaded via the Huawei Health application by going to Settings> System and updates> Software updates> Search updates.
