Not Only Smart GM Sunglasses - HUAWEI X Gentle Monster Eyewear Review

GENTLE MONSTER claims that their products are "most suitable for Asians faces", and their products are also loved by many domestic and foreign stars; HUAWEI is a domestic first-lever smartphone brand with the largest sales volume in the domestic smartphone market.Then HUAWEI X Gentle Monster Eyewear was born because of their combination.

Both sunglasses and "smart wearable products"
HUAWEI X Gentle Monster Eyewear looks just a pair of stylish GM sunglasses from the appearance, if it does not have slightly thick temples and micro speaker openings on the temples.


In addition, in order to meet the needs of users for different styles, HUAWEI X Gentle Monster Eyewear provides a total of five design glasses to choose, including two sunglasses with a round shape and three different styles of myopia glasses.


Smart Eastmoon-01 classic version sunglasses are made of black material with metal for connection and decoration. The logo "GENTLE MONSTER" are printed on the side temples, and the gold logo of "HUAWEI" is printed on the inside of the temples. Except for a pair of speakers and dual microphones on the temples, there are almost no other openings in this sunglasses, which also reflects its design philosophy-intelligent features are only used as the characteristics of glasses, making it easier to obtain or interact with information, quietly integrate into daily life, and let communication become more comfortable and convenient. But at the same time, it also means that there are extremely high requirements in terms of craftsmanship. After all, this pair of temples integrates the visible speakers and microphones, and the invisible voice assistant, battery, chipset, dual antenna, and charging module and more. It is also because of the high degree of integration that HUAWEI X Gentle Monster Eyewear has IP67 level waterproof and dustproof.


Smart Control
How to use and charge HUAWEI Eyewear without any interface? -Same as AirPods. Eyewear has touch bars on both sides of the temple. Double-tap can perform multiple functions, such as switching songs, answering calls, waking up voice assistant etc. Of course, if the sunglasses are removed, the current music playback will be paused automatically. If you put off the sunglasses, the current music playback will be paused automatically.

Wireless Charging
The sunglasses integrate playback and control functions, and the storage case plays the role of charging and pairing. HUAWEI added a 2200mAh battery and a wireless charging coil to the sunglasses case, and used a USB-C port to charge the storage case. After opening the sunglasses storage box, then long press for pairing, and when the sunglasses are placed in the storage case, wireless charging will start automatically. A single full charge can be used for 2.5 hours, and the storage case provides 8 hours of battery life. In addition, the LED inside the storage box will remind the user of the current charging status when charging. It should be noted that although the white leather texture storage case looks elegant, it is not very convenient to carry because of its large size.


Micro speaker
Due to the open design of HUAWEI Eyewear, users can enjoy music without missing any sound information of the surrounding environment, which is very suitable for users who are driving. However, in a quieter environment, the open design may make the user ’s “private music” become the “shared music” of the surrounding users. Therefore, it is recommended to reduce the volume appropriately to improve this problem.


Link with HUAWEI EMUI system

It is worth to mention that HUAWEI Eyewear smart glasses can also be linked with HUAWEI EMUI system to to provide users with intimate greetings at different times of the day. It should be noted that HUAWEI Eyewear currently only works with Android phones now, but I believe that iOS devices will soon be able to match.



HUAWEI X Gentle Monster Eyewear is not only fashionable glasses loved by lots of stars, but also have functions such as sunshade, clear music playback, and voice reminders. The existence of optical glasses also takes into account the daily wearing needs of eye myopia consumers. In addition, the glasses storage case combines charging and storage into one, making daily use, carrying, and real-time charging more convenient. If you are willing to try something new, this HUAWEI X Gentle Monster Eyewear will be your best choice.
