“We have responded to consumers’ requests from around the world asking for a smartwatch featuring a timeless design that is truly smart from within. Through Huawei’s continued commitment to ‘Make It Possible,’ the Huawei Watch delivers on that promise and gives the consumer a premium smartwatch that is technologically innovative,” said Huawei Consumer Business Group CEO Richard Yu.
“As the first smartwatch in our expanding line of premium wearable products, the Huawei Watch was designed and created to enhance and be a part of consumers’ everyday lives.”
Timeless design
Designed by a team of experienced watch designers that have a rich history in creating fashionable and timeless watches, the attention-to-detail becomes apparent upon first glance as the device boasts a sparkling AMOLED 1.4-inch display at 400x400 pixels resolution in 286 ppi at a 10,000:1 high contrast ratio, making it the most vibrant Android Wear smartwatch in the world.
Made of more than 130 components, Huawei Watch has a crown, frame and hinge built from high-quality and scratch resistant cold-forged stainless steel making it 40% harder. With an intuitive two o’clock press button, the watch offers the highest levels of control and comfort to the user. The Huawei Watch comes in three stylish colours: gold, silver and black.
Designed with personalisation in mind, more than 40 unique watch faces will be available to choose from, including a full range of watch straps made from different materials and styles. The Huawei Watch will come with a magnetic charging station for users’ benefit.

For the sports enthusiast, or just those interested in tracking fitness levels, the Huawei Watch features a heart rate monitor sensor, six-axis motion sensor and a barometer sensor which automatically detects and tracks in real-time if a user is walking, running, biking, hiking or sleeping. Specifically, users can monitor everything from the number of calories burned, to heart rate, climbing height, steps taken and distance travelled.
