Bucket Tech: HUAWEI TruSense

Huawei today announced the latest upgrade to its pioneering health and fitness innovation, the HUAWEI TruSense System, now enhanced with the new Distributed Super-Sensing Module. This advancement represents a major leap forward in science-based, precise, and comprehensive health management solutions, setting a new industry benchmark following the HUAWEI TruSense System’s successful debut in 2024.

With these upgrades, the enhanced HUAWEI TruSense System now integrates fingertip detection capabilities with multimodal signal fusion, extending its monitoring reach from the wrist to the fingertip, an industry-first aimed at improving accuracy. It also combines wrist and fingertip detection, enabling rapid and accurate measurement. This breakthrough upgrade was developed to meet the growing global demand for more proactive, real-time health management.

Latest innovations ensure Huawei continues to lead wearables industry

     

Huawei entered the health and fitness business 12 years ago and continues to lead the global market. IDC's latest data places Huawei in the number one global rank in wrist-worn shipments for year-on-year growth. Notably, Huawei ranks first in shipments in the global wrist-worn market below US$700 (excluding tax) and has been ranked first in smartwatch shipments in the Chinese market for six consecutive years.

Globally consumers are more health-conscious than ever before, driving demand for convenient, comprehensive, and accurate monitoring capabilities. Huawei's response to this demand is a system that integrates all of the company's latest advances in vital sign monitoring. With the 2024 launch of the HUAWEI TruSense System, the company is driving a new shift in digital health & fitness that's defined by six key characteristics: accurate, all-around, fast, flexible, open, and iterable.

HUAWEI TruSense measures more than 60 health and fitness indicators, covering six of the body's major health systems, including circulatory, respiratory, nervous, endocrine, reproductive, and muscular. Amongst the indicators is an emotional well-being component, which debuted in the HUAWEI WATCH GT 5 Series and the HUAWEI WATCH D2. Sensors monitor the user's heart rate and autonomic nervous system data and then feed this data to an algorithm that assesses the user's emotional well-being and stress levels - helping users enjoy the benefits of a healthy body and a healthy mind.

All-new Distributed Super-Sensing Module

The latest update to the TruSense System is a pioneering new Distributed Super-Sensing Module, combining wrist-based and fingertip sensing to deliver significantly enhanced health insights. The module utilises optic, electric, acoustic, and mechanical signals, integrating these multi-modal inputs to dramatically improve the accuracy, speed, and comprehensiveness of health monitoring.

The newly announced Distributed Super-Sensing Module builds on last year’s Super-Sensing Module, which professional institutions have already recognised for its accuracy in monitoring key health indicators such as blood oxygen, heart rate, blood pressure risk evaluation, and more. Huawei has overcome previous space limitations resulting from space constraints at the bottom of the watch, so it can now monitor different parts of the human body. It has deployed more powerful and diverse sensors in a distributed manner.

A significant feature of the upgrade is that it enhances sensing capabilities by coordinating data collection from both the wrist and other human body parts, for example, the fingertips. With the fingertip’s naturally dense vascular structure and thinner skin surface, interference from melanin and hair is significantly reduced, offering a unique edge in certain scenarios, particularly cardiovascular monitoring. By using these additional physiological data points, the system captures richer signals across more scenarios, delivering faster, more precise, and more comprehensive health insights.

As a result of the upgrade, blood oxygen measurement speed has seen a significant improvement, now capable of detecting changes in real-time, marking another substantial step forward in response time. The comprehensive health snapshot feature, Health Glance, now assesses over 10 vital indicators in just 60 seconds. This rapid assessment includes three newly added health metrics for users, namely Heart Rate Variability (HRV), emotional well-being, and ovarian function assessment, delivering a more complete, timely, and user-centric health monitoring experience.

Essex-based Amy then followed this up with ‘Heard It All Before’; a three-way collaboration with London-based DJ and producer, Leena Punks and Ukraine-born and Toronto-raised vocalist, flownastasia. The single has seen large support across BBC Radio 1 by both Danny Howard and Jaguar, as well as SiriusXM - being also playlisted on Diplo’s Revolution. As Amy continues to rise through the UK dance scene, her latest production, ‘Each Other’, samples iconic 2000s hit ‘2People’ to which she places her signature trance spin. 

Bucket Seat: OMODA unveils refreshed C5 X Series

The OMODA C5, one of South Africa’s favourite premium compact crossovers, is better than ever, thanks to a bold new update called the C5 X Series. This update brings improvements across the board, from a more refined driving experience to greater practicality. The latest iteration builds on the C5’s success while offering even more to customers who demand style and substance at an affordable price. 

At first glance, the striking front fascia has been redesigned, giving the C5 a sportier and more upmarket look. The diamond matrix grille, a striking part of the C5’s styling, is more polished and sophisticated. 

The lower elements of the bumper have also been revised for a cleaner and more modern look. Similarly, the headlights have been restyled, while the daytime running lamps have been sculpted for a more dynamic look. Overall, the C5 has been brought more in line with the C9, which was launched in South Africa in November 2024. 

But OMODA has gone further, enhancing the package with sportier, black-painted alloy wheels for a more dynamic presence. 

Alongside the refreshed design elements, a new dual-clutch transmission (DCT) is now standard for the C5 X Series. The smooth-shifting six-speed gearbox is paired with a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine, producing 115 kW and 230 N.m of torque for a more responsive and efficient driving experience. 

These enhancements have improved performance, reducing the 0-100 km/h time by 0.9 seconds to a swift nine seconds. Efficiency has also been improved, with fuel consumption now rated at 6.9L/100 km—an improvement over the outgoing Elegance and Lux trim’s 7.4L/100 km. 

The mechanical revisions extend beyond acceleration and efficiency. The previous torsion beam rear suspension has been replaced with a multilink setup, delivering improved ride comfort and sharper handling. This elevates the driving experience, offering greater luxury and dynamic control. 

OMODA engineers have further improved the dynamics of the C5 X Series, adjusting the brake pedal for more responsive and engaging feedback. Additionally, improved cornering stability ensures that the updated crossover delivers a more confident and enjoyable ride in all conditions. 

The drive mode selector now includes an additional mode, giving drivers more options. There are now three modes: Eco, Normal, and Sport. 

Inside, the C5 benefits from more luxurious soft-touch materials for the driver and front passenger door trim, while the 15-watt wireless charger has been replaced with a 50-watt charger with a ventilation system. However, the most impressive revision is the increased boot space, with the space behind the rear seats increasing from an already generous 378 to 442 litres. With the rear row folded flat, the C5 can swallow up to 1,149 litres of cargo - 74 more litres than the outgoing model. 

“With the latest updates to the C5 lineup, we’ve not only enhanced performance and efficiency but also introduced key refinements that elevate the driving experience,” commented Hans Greyling, General Manager for OMODA & JAECOO South Africa. 

“From the introduction of the smooth-shifting dual-clutch transmission to the adoption of multilink rear suspension, every improvement has been made with comfort and responsiveness in mind. What’s more, we’ve managed to offer these advancements at a more accessible price point, reinforcing our commitment to delivering exceptional value without compromise,” added Gahagan. 

OMODA continues to deliver exceptional value in the compact crossover segment with the introduction of the new C5 Lux X and Elegance X. Alongside a host of enhancements, both models now arrive with more accessible pricing. The Lux X is available at R425,900, while the Elegance X comes in at R465,900—both more affordable than before. 

The existing Street and Style derivatives will remain in the lineup, ensuring a wide range of options for customers seeking both value and performance. 

Despite the price drop, all C5 models receive OMODA’s five-year/150,000 km warranty, five-year/70,000 km service plan, and the industry-leading ten-year/one-million km engine warranty as part of the standard price.

Bucket Tech: HUAWEI Mate XT

After months of anticipation and media buzz, the trifold sensation, the HUAWEI Mate XT, has arrived in South Africa, marking a significant milestone in foldable smartphone technology. As more users get their hands on this innovative device, they are discovering that it offers much more than just the groundbreaking triple folding screen. Beyond the eye-catching display, the Mate XT has captivated users with its exceptional design and state-of-the-art camera features. This is a smartphone that’s reimagining how we engage and interact with our phones.

Early Emergence of Revolutionary Foldable Design 

While most foldables in the market have been criticised for their bulky builds and overly mechanical aesthetics, the HUAWEI Mate series foldables have managed to remain uncompromising in their design. In fact, Huawei has laid new inroads in foldable design even before the Mate XT. A few months ago, the HUAWEI Mate X6 was launched to widespread acclaim, introducing a new foldable screen architecture that includes a Carbon Fibre Inner Screen Plate for support, a Multi-dimensional Hinge as the structural backbone, and the rugged 2nd Generation Kunlun glass for the exterior screen. These remarkable materials significantly enhanced the durability of the bifold while preserving its thin and lightweight appearance.

Unfolding a New Dimension with HUAWEI Mate XT

Huawei then pushed the boundaries of foldable screen technology further, embarking on a new trifold design with an additional screen. Late 2024, Huawei achieved a groundbreaking milestone, launching the world’s first commercial trifold smartphone in China. To ensure the device fits comfortably in the palm of the user’s hand while maintaining its sleek appearance, Huawei worked against all odds to deliver what can only be defined as a true miracle; a trifold that remains as thin and light as a bifold. Currently, the Mate XT holds the record for the world’s largest foldable display at 10.2 inches, and it is also the world’s thinnest foldable, with an unfolded thickness of just 3.6 mm.

Don’t be fooled by its appearance, though. The wafer-thin screen is toughened to withstand everyday scuffs and accidental slips. The screen is reinforced with non-Newtonian fluid materials and an ultra-thin 322 cm² glass, forming a composite structure with dual impact resistance.

Flexibility is the Name of the Game

With its Advanced Precision Hinge System, the HUAWEI Mate XT is the first foldable to seamlessly fold both inward and outward. With a versatile range of screen configurations, the smartphone adapts effortlessly to various uses, from browsing in portrait or landscape mode, to a 10.2-inch immersive display for split-screen multitasking. This flexibility gives users greater freedom to interact with the device.

The Mate XT’s expansive screen offers three modes—single, dual, and triple screen—tailoring the experience for everything from a quick call to complex tasks. Whether switching from watching a movie in dual mode to unfolding an extra screen to read reviews, the phone seamlessly transitions between modes, optimising apps for the best experience. The user interface adjusts to different screen sizes to offer smooth interactions.

Crafted from Ultra-High Strength Steel, the trifold’s hinge system boasts a remarkable deformation resistance of 1900 MPa, ensuring long-lasting durability through frequent openings and closings.

Ultra Aperture XMAGE Camera

The HUAWEI Mate XT comes with an exceptional camera system powered by XMAGE, offering a range of powerful photography tools that easily outshine the competition. It features a 10-size Adjustable Physical Aperture, supporting settings from F/1.4 to F/4.0. Additionally, the Mate XT introduces cutting-edge Ultra Speed Snapshot technology, allowing you to capture fleeting moments with razor-sharp precision. Even a maglev train or sports car speeding past you, nearly impossible to catch with the naked eye, can be captured in mid-action.

Huawei is offering a premium service package for HUAWEI Mate XT customers, including a full year of HUAWEI Care+ with single-incident screen damage protection, four complimentary screen protector replacements, and free door-to-door and postal service. (T's&C's apply)

For users who rely on their smartphones for everything from work to entertainment, the HUAWEI Mate XT | ULTIMATE DESIGN is the perfect choice, offering a larger screen and an unparalleled Multiview experience. Moreover, owning a HUAWEI Mate XT means holding a piece of history in the palm of your hand.

Monday Choon: John Summit - light years (feat. Inéz)

 

It's been a week of new drops coming in hot from Miami Music Week, one of those track is the latest from American DJ and Producer, John Summit "Light Years". He dropped this on the main stage with his set with him and Dom Dolla. It's already been frequently played on all streaming platforms and like most of his other works, its a certified banger. 

Bucket Seat: Haval H7

Haval has become quite a common brand known in the local market, with them capatilizing on the ever growing SUV market with popular and affordable models like the Jolion, H6 and the H6 GT. Sitting on the GWM umbrella which has been on the scenes for over 10 years, consumers have warmed to the idea that everything made in China can't be all that bad and they were not wrong. The cars are great quality, plenty performance, tech packed and overall bang for your buck. If I had to nitpick, the high fuel consumption would be the one downside to them but with the change from CVT to DCT in most of the Chinese imports, this seems to be solving that problem. The Haval H7 has recently entered the South African market, offering a distinctive blend of rugged design, modern technology, and robust performance. This mid-size SUV is positioned between the H6 and H9 models, aiming to cater to families and adventure enthusiasts alike.

DESIGN

The H7's design is characterized by a boxy, retro-inspired profile that exudes a rugged charm. It features a prominent three-tier grille flanked by circular LED headlights, contributing to its bold front fascia. Standard 19-inch alloy wheels housed within flared wheel arches and functional roof rails enhance its adventurous appeal. Despite its robust appearance, the H7 maintains a contemporary aesthetic that aligns with current SUV trends. ​The design says it's ready for the roads less traveled, that along with the flared wheel arches and rugged tyres, it gives off that explorer look. While the front is pretty attractive, I feel they tried to force the design of the rear a bit too much by trying to incorporate the circular light theme there as well. Just seems a bit unpolished to me. 

PERFORMANCE

Under the hood, the H7 is equipped with a 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine that delivers 170 kW and 380 Nm of torque. This powerplant is paired with a 9-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, providing smooth and responsive shifts. The H7 is available in both front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive configurations, catering to different driving preferences and conditions. ​On the road, the H7 offers a balanced ride quality, effectively absorbing most road imperfections. The suspension setup, while occasionally firm, contributes to stable handling and a comfortable driving experience. The cabin remains quiet, enhancing the overall sense of refinement during travel. ​While official fuel consumption figures are yet to be confirmed, the H7's engine is engineered for a balance between performance and efficiency. While I only spent a week with it, I hardly drove around as I was away for most of the time but in my short time with it I couldn't get the average below 13.9L per 100km, which won't do any good for the high fuel usage taboo placed on the brand already but one must understand this car is much bigger and heavier, akin to a Jeep so with this in mind, that average is pretty on brand for a car like that.

COMFORT

Inside, the H7 offers a spacious and well-appointed cabin designed with comfort and convenience in mind. High-quality materials are used throughout, and the layout is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The infotainment system is A key focal point of the interior as its a massive 14.6-inch screen that is user-friendly and supports smartphone integration wirelessly. Ample legroom and headroom ensure comfort for all occupants, making it suitable for long journeys. ​The H7 comes equipped with a comprehensive suite of safety features, including multiple airbags, electronic stability control, and advanced driver-assistance systems. These technologies enhance driver confidence and passenger safety, aligning the H7 with competitors in its segment. ​The comfort access of having proximity sensor with automatic tailgate is a really winner in this car. Works much better than some of the German variants. 

VERDICT

The Haval H7 stands out in the mid-size SUV segment with its distinctive design, robust performance, and well-appointed interior. Its combination of rugged aesthetics and modern features makes it a compelling option for those seeking a versatile and stylish vehicle. As Haval continues to establish its presence in South Africa, the H7 exemplifies the brand's commitment to delivering quality and value to consumers. With the adventure mindset that most South Africans have, I believe this model will do well locally, its the first real "off road" offering from a Chinese brand locally and apart from it looking the part, it really feels it too. I tested it in some tricky situations from traversing up steep gradients on loose gravel to flooded roads and it excelled in every aspect. The off road controls are easy to use and engage via the touch screen including the Electronic Differential Lock and the 360 degree camera allows you to see everything around you, to avoid any obstacles or the area around you. A much needed model to their already impressive line-up.
