Since Huawei has been banned from releasing smartphones in most of the countries, the company has shifted its focus towards the wearables market. Recently, Huawei rolled out the Huawei Watch Fit in India. Now the brand has announced the global launch of Watch GT Runner alongside the MatePad E2-in-1.
With a composite fiber case, the watch has been specially designed for runners. It weighs around 38.5 gm and includes a ceramic bezel and a metal crown. The watch is going to have only a 46mm version and also features a 1.43-inch AMOLED display.
Huawei claims that the watch can go on continuously for 20 hours when the GPS is turned on and for 14 days under moderate usage. The smartwatch can also calculate a user's running index based on the historical running heart rate, distance, pace, frequency, and other multidimensional data.
