Black Shark has officially announced its upcoming launch of two smartwatches, the Black Shark S1 Pro and the Black Shark S1 Classic, in the Chinese market. These watches will include Black Shark’s innovative game health monitoring mode. The S1 Pro introduces “Wen Xinyiyan,” potentially an AI assistant readily available on your wrist. Moreover, they will feature Baidu map navigation and a diverse selection of AI watch faces.
The Black Shark S1 series is rumored to
track the player’s gaming activity, including the type of games played and
their duration. If the gaming sessions become excessively long, it is expected
to provide health reminders. While the Black Shark S1 Pro has already made its
global debut, information regarding the Classic variant remains undisclosed.
However, it is possible that the Classic model could share similarities with
the Pro version.
For those who don’t know, Black Shark has
already launched the Black Shark S1 in the global market. Here is a look at its
specifications and price. The Black Shark S1 smartwatch features a round dial
sporting a 1.43-inch AMOLED display with 466 x 466 pixels resolution. It offers
600 nits of brightness and a 60Hz refresh rate. It also supports Always on
Display (AOD) and provides access to over 100 watch faces. The Shark S1 can
monitor more than 100 sports modes and promises a 10-day battery life under
regular usage.
The Shark S1 comes with a rotating crown
and comes with metal bezels. It’s exclusively available in black and boasts an
IP68 rating, making it resistant to dust and water damage. One notable feature
is Bluetooth calling support, enhanced with Xiaomi’s ENC algorithm and
signal-processing microphone for clear calls. The smartwatch can be paired with
the Shark Wear app for precise GPS tracking and periodic exercise updates. It
includes essential functions such as a calculator, camera control, stopwatch,
message alerts, and more.
The Black Shark S1 is exclusively
