A torque warning hand tool includes a main body with one drive head, and a torque detector, a control display device and a warning unit disposed on the main body and electrically connected to each other. The control display device is used to set a preset value and receive a torque value from the torque detector to compare the torque value with the preset value. The warning unit has a first, a second and a third warning modes respectively corresponding to three colored light sources. After compared, according to the warning mode in which the torque value falls, the control display device drives the different colored light sources to emit corresponding colors for an operator to identify the torque extent applied to the hand tool.
