I suppose Chinese intelligence will take one look at your data and realise that you're beyond hope.  
Very likely 😂
Huawei are one Chinese company I am a bit suspicious of

So first few days of running the Huawei GT3 Pro.
It’s very nice as a watch. Titanium case so very light. Looks big off the wrist as the glass screen goes almost to edge of case but looks OK on my, not huge, wrists.
Easy to set up initially with app on phone and link taking five minutes. As expected needed an update so did that, took about 40 minutes. Then if needed another one. Then another one…. 
Does updates for each individual thing, needs a one-time latest update, even if that means runs overnight. I must have done ten so far and just stopped as seem so minor. Latest one is for torch colours and improves something on running app. Every one takes 40 or so minutes and watch is down while doing it Thing is I don’t know how many more needed or relevance/importance. I’ve just taken to doing one as I go to bed.
About 20 different watch faces, mostly cr@p visually. I’ve settled on one but would be nice to be able to customise say maybe one or two features on the face/app. Plenty of Huawei of 3rd party ones if want to pay extra.
Sleep app wasn’t as feared, does a full programme of detail and seems pretty accurate on sleep/up in night/wake details on just a couple of nights look see so far.
Same with steps and heart-rate, etc. compared to phone and stand alone professional BP monitor. Also does oxygen and ECG functions.
RRP seems to be £299 most places for standard black rubber strap model but Currys doing it with grey leather strap for £249 plus ‘free’ wireless charger more suited to a phone than the watch (phone comes with USB button magnet charger) so that is in kitchen, useful to plonk iPhones on.
Recommended so far and I think a good price
