2014 was the year Huawei officially entered the wearables space with the Huawei Talkband B1, a Bluetooth headset and smartband that combined fitness and health features.

This was just the beginning of a decade-long quest to redefine what wearables are and what they can do today, with a series of major breakthroughs since the launch of the Talkband B1. In 2016, Huawei introduced its heart rate sensor technology, HUAWEI TruSeenTM, version 1.0, and has since evolved beyond heart rate monitoring; the latest version of TruSeen is now able to provide SpO2 and ECG measurements, improving accuracy and allowing for use in serious health checks and studies.

TruSeen was soon followed by Huawei's TruSportTM, TruSleepTM, and TruRelaxTM platforms, enhancing what Huawei smartwatches can do when it comes to exercise, sleep, and tracking stressful parts of the day.

Smartwatches are also built for communication and getting away from smartphones, so Huawei did just that with the introduction of eSIM on the Huawei Watch 2 in 2017. come 2021, Huawei will do just that with the Huawei Watch D. Huawei tried to revolutionize health monitoring from the wrist with the Huawei Watch D. No other smartwatch could measure blood pressure, especially without first calibrating it.

This leads to the next big step in Huawei's decade of developing groundbreaking, cutting-edge wearables. on september 14, 2023, huawei will unveil its next wearable product and also talk about what it has in store for the next decade of wearables, and beyond. It will also talk about the next 10 years of wearables and what it has in store for the future.

That next wearable product has already been revealed by Huawei on social media, and judging by its teaser, a new smartwatch or two is on the horizon. We say two smartwatches because the Huawei teaser shows different bezels. The fashion-forward slogan also seems like a clear nod that we can expect design to be at the center of Huawei's big announcement.

Huawei, of course, is no stranger to making attractive smartwatches; 2023 has already seen the Huawei Watch 4 and Watch 4 Pro for those who crave the best features of a Huawei smartwatch. It wrapped features such as a sphere, sapphire LTPO AMOLED touchscreen, eSim technology, and the ability to view multiple health indicators at a glance at once in aerospace-grade titanium.

The Huawei Watch Ultimate, a smartwatch for divers, showcased Huawei's ability to use premium materials like ceramic and liquid metal to create a smartwatch you'll want to show off under your shirt sleeve Huawei Watch The GT 3 Pro has a similar story, with titanium and ceramic case options. This is an array of smartwatches that shows that Huawei has a smartwatch for everyone, and offers some hints of where Huawei will go next with its new smartwatches.

Beyond the stylish looks, what lies ahead on the software side? As we have seen with Huawei over the years, it could be a lot. Few companies have innovated like Huawei, and there are some notable firsts: we have already mentioned the breakthrough in blood pressure monitoring with the Huawei Watch D, and the Huawei Watch Buds, which can house a truly wireless set of earphones It is now available as a smartwatch. Huawei made a running watch with a floating external antenna to provide the accurate data runners crave, and a smartwatch for kids with a rotating dual screen.

The wrist-worn watch is only part of the package, and Huawei is flexing its innovative muscles with the Huawei Health companion smartphone app. Beyond the Huawei Health app, Huawei's Health research platform explores what wearables can do in the realm of health monitoring.

Beyond the Huawei Health app is Huawei's Health research platform, where Huawei is exploring what wearables can do in the area of health monitoring and the potential for smartwatches to be used to prevent chronic disease.

Huawei's research app already has over 200 health studies in the Chinese market covering everything from heart health to respiratory health to blood sugar management, and international studies are expected to follow soon. The platform currently has more than 13 million research participants and is working with more than 110 research institutions to ensure that wearables provide truly life-changing smarts.

Huawei is also conducting its own research and already has 10 research institutes in its native China. To strengthen its expertise in fitness and health, it has three health institutes and plans to open more in Europe by the end of 2023.

The extensive research and studies that Huawei is conducting focusing on health issues such as atrial fibrillation and hypertension have been recognized by leading medical journals, highlighting the progress that Huawei is making in health monitoring.

And now to the future beyond the launch event and what Huawei has in store for wearables a little further down the road. Huawei is already taking a closer look at how ovarian health and emotional health can be tracked, bringing blood pressure monitoring into the realm of exercise monitoring, and pushing a variety of unique approaches to tracking health. TruSeen 5.5+ is also on the way, and will be available for health and wellness monitoring will be further enhanced.

What is clear is that whatever the next frontier in wearables is, Huawei will lead it. More than 130 million Huawei smartwatches have already shipped worldwide, and more than 100 million users have logged into the Huawei Health app. Huawei has applied for more than 800 patents and is already producing smartwatches for those interested in adventure, heart health, or simply want to own a stylish connected watch. Huawei has laid the groundwork for the next exciting era of wearables with the launch of its smartwatch, which will be available in the U.S. and Europe in the coming months, and will be available in the U.S. and Europe in the coming months.
