Huawei officially announced the launch of its latest Watch GT 4, MatePad 11” PaperMatte Edition, and FreeBuds Pro 3 on our shores.
Huawei Watch GT 4
The smartwatch comes in two stylish variations – a 41mm model with a “Pendant Design” and a 46mm version with an “Octagonal Design.” These latest smartwatches feature advanced TruSeen 5.5+ technology.
In terms of battery life, the larger model boasts up to 14-day endurance, while the smaller one lasts up to 7 days. Both models exhibit a 20% improvement in battery life compared to their GT3 counterparts.
The new series also enhances the Always-On Display mode, increasing the visibility of on-screen elements by up to 20%.
The 46mm variant showcases a 1.43-inch display, while the 41mm model sports a 1.32-inch display. Both displays are AMOLED with resolutions of 466 x 466 pixels, resulting in pixel densities of 326ppi and 352ppi, respectively.
TruSeen 5.5+ introduces the innovative TruSleep 3.0 technology, which includes Sleep Monitoring for tracking sleep cycles and aiding in sleep pattern improvement.
Additionally, the Huawei Watch GT 4 features Menstrual Cycle Management 3.0, claimed to be 15% more accurate in predicting the first day of the menstrual cycle compared to mainstream smartwatches.
For outdoor activities, the dual-band, five-system GNSS ensures 30% more accurate positioning, even in densely built-up areas. The watch supports tracking for over 100 different sports, including niche activities like Padel and eSports.
The new Stay Fit feature allows users to monitor caloric intake with real-time health data, while Activity Rings provide a quick overview of daily progress, including calories burned, exercise duration, and standing activity.
The Huawei Watch GT 4 is compatible with both Android and iOS smartphones and integrates seamlessly with popular apps like Strava, Komoot, Runtastic, and Huawei’s own Petal Maps.
It also supports message notifications from SMS, WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook Messenger, Skype, Signal, Telegram, and Viber, with the ability to send quick replies. Bluetooth calling is supported as well.
Huawei also announced that MCash support is coming in Q3 2023, and the Touch ‘n Go eWallet app will be supported next year.
The Huawei Watch GT 4 46mm model offers a choice of four different straps and designs, including a “black rubber” strap, Brown Leather option, and the eco-friendly Rainforest Green GMT version with a braided composite strap made from recycled ocean-bound nylon. The top-tier model features a Steel version with a bracelet crafted from 316L stainless steel.
The Huawei Watch GT 4 41mm model also provides diverse options, such as a White Leather strap, a Milanese bracelet with a magnetic clasp, and the premium Two-Tone Piano Key design, meticulously handcrafted through a 17-step process.
Huawei MatePad 11” PaperMatte Edition
Huawei has released this tablet previously, but this new version comes with nano-etched screen coating on this tablet that promises to provide a paper-like feel, reduce glare, minimise eye strain, and deliver a more natural writing experience when used with the second-generation M-Pencil stylus.
The tablet has industry-first SGS Low Visual Fatigue Premium Performance and TÜV Rheinland Reflection Free certifications, reducing eye strain with low blue light and flicker-free technology.
To make sure the screen is clean and clear, Huawei has included a double-sided, grey microfiber synthetic leather polishing cloth that easily removes fingerprints, dust, stains, and even minor scratches.
This tablet features an 11.5-inch TFT LCD (IPS) screen with a resolution of 1440 x 2200 pixels and a 120Hz refresh rate. It is powered by a Snapdragon 870 chipset, boasts 8GB of RAM, and offers 128GB of storage, according to the spec.
Additionally, it includes a 13MP rear camera and an 8MP front-facing camera. The device is equipped with a 7,250 mAh battery that supports 10V/2.25A fast charging and is also compatible with 9V/2A or 5V/2A charging over USB-C 2.0. On the software front, it runs HarmonyOS 3.1.
Huawei FreeBuds Pro 3
The FreeBuds Pro 3 is Huawei’s flagship wireless earbuds, and it comes equipped with a dual-driver system that promises clearer treble and powerful bass.
The earbuds also feature a Triple Adaptive EQ for delivering sharp sound quality. Additionally, they offer support for the LDAC and L2HC 2.0 Hi-Res audio codecs (take note that L2HC requires Huawei phones running EMUI 13.0 or later).
Huawei is introducing an updated Intelligent Dynamic ANC 3.0 system with claims of even more effective noise cancellation.
They’ve also incorporated a new Pure Voice 2.0 microphone system, which ensures your voice is picked up clearly even in challenging environments.
The combined battery life of these earbuds is rated at 31 hours, and they also support dual device pairing for added convenience.
The earbuds come in three colours: Ceramic White, Green, and Silver Frost.
