Huawei has just announced a new global event for September 19, for a new smartwatch. The company went to social media to announce a new ‘Innovative Product Launch’. The event will be hosted in Barcelona, by the way.
Huawei just announced a new press event for September 19, a new smartwatch is coming
The company is using #FashionForward and #CreationOfBeauty hashtags for this launch event. In the image that the company shared, which you can check out below, you’ll see parts of a new smartwatch.
If the design looks familiar, it’s because it is. This design on its own tells us that the Huawei Watch GT 5 is coming. It does look like an evolution of the Huawei Watch GT 4 design. On top of that, some teasers have been making the rounds in China lately, mentioning the Huawei Watch GT 5.
Considering that the Watch GT 4 arrived back in September 2023, this makes all the sense in the world. The Huawei Watch GT 4 is one of my favorite smartwatches to date. I reviewed it back in January, and it’s still holding up today.
The Huawei Watch GT 5 is almost certainly the watch in question
The Huawei Watch GT 5 is next in line. Its body also won’t be a perfect circle, due to design reasons. It will have a similar body to the Watch GT 4, it seems. In the bottom-left corner of the provided image, you’ll see a white-colored watch with a different shape, though.
That watch is also the Watch GT 5, but a smaller one, mainly catered to women. It will have a different body shape, it will be more of a circle than the larger model. It will be a bit smaller, but just as powerful, if I have to guess.
As per usual, this smartwatch is expected to include some new fitness features, to place it above the Watch GT 4 in the pecking order. We’ll get all the details on September 19, so stay tuned. As a reminder, Huawei is also hosting an event on September 10, in China, for the world’s first tri-fold handset.
