The HUAWEI Watch is a handsome piece of wearable technology with Android OS and compatibility with apps such as Google Now and UP by Jawbone. The smartwatch connects with one’s phone via Bluetooth but works independently enough that the wearer won’t need to be tied to the phone all day to take advantage of the watch’s features, which include a built-in mic, a heart rate meter, and visual and vibration notifications for communications and events. Fully customizable, the watch offers more than 40 possible faces with a blend of classic and innovative chronograph features indicating speed, weather conditions, day of the week, moon phase, calories burned, and more. Each of these options is cleanly displayed on the AMOLED screen, which boasts a 10,000: 1 high-contrast ratio and 286ppi for ultra-high resolution. Classically designed, the HUAWEI Watch is one of the first smartwatches with a sapphire crystal, the luxury wristwatch standard. Additionally, the device is styled with a round face; a stainless steel case in one’s choice of a plain, gold, or black finish; and a steel or leather buckle strap. The release date and price have not yet been announced.
