Huawei is preparing a new smartwatch
called Watch GT 2e. Its design is based on the well-known Watch GT2, but
appears to have sportier bands and simplified looks. While we heard
speculations it might arrive alongside the Huawei P40 phones, now we have an
official confirmation on the date - it is indeed March 26.
The quick video gives us the date of the
arrival and from the short nine seconds, we can see it will be for active
people. Huawei posted the clip on Weibo alongside the words that the watch is
representing “the spirit and energy of exploration”. The company also promises
this watch can “play for two weeks”, meaning one charge can get you through
fourteen days.
Back then we established that such a
battery life can be done with some compromises like not using notifications and
limiting the sports activities. Nevertheless, Huawei is expected to equip the
Watch GT 2e with a low-power-consuming chipset and a simple UI that will keep
the battery usage to minimum.
