Xiaomi’s smart wearable sub-brand Huami is gearing
up to launch a new smartwatch called the Amazfit GTR on July 16. The device in question was teased
on the brand’s Weibo profile revealing the launch date alongside hints of a
24-day battery life as well as three different casing materials - stainless
steel, aluminum and titanium.
Rumors point to an AMOLED screen and Snapdragon Wear
3100 chipset, although it's unclear how the former will coexist with the
promised battery endurance. The GTR smartwatch is also expected to feature
water resistance, a heart rate monitor and all the standard fitness tracking
modes.
The official unveiling will be held next Tuesday in
Beijing and we’ll cover all the details as they appear.
