Bucket Tech: HUAWEI Smart Health Innovations

In 2024, HUAWEI has set its sights on conquering three industry challenges: sleep, blood pressure, and mental health management, aiming to provide even more professional and comprehensive health management solutions globally. 

The Growth Engine: Smart Wearables 

Smart wearables have emerged as a critical growth driver within HUAWEI's Consumer Business Group (CBG) global business. With a notable 56% year-on-year increase in smartwatch shipments in Q3 2023, HUAWEI has solidified its position in the worldwide market, boasting a remarkable 14% market share. This success is underpinned by a commitment to innovation, as evidenced by the opening of HUAWEI's largest Health Lab outside the Chinese mainland, in Finland. This lab leads the way in researching smart wearable technologies, offering users more intelligent fitness and health features globally. 

Bridging the Health Information Gap 

HUAWEI's latest European Health Survey highlights a crucial gap in the market: consumers are increasingly health-conscious but lack access to timely health information. Smart wearables, mainly HUAWEI's range of products, play a pivotal role in bridging this gap. With features like Health Glance on the HUAWEI WATCH 4 Series and TruSeen™ 5.5+ health indicator monitoring on the HUAWEI WATCH GT 4 Series, HUAWEI offers users valuable insights into their health, promoting proactive management and healthier lifestyles. 

Comprehensive Health Management 

HUAWEI's wearable devices have various features tailored to meet diverse health management needs. From the Stay Fit app's comprehensive calorie control and weight management support to HUAWEI WATCH D's pioneering blood pressure measurement technology, HUAWEI wearables cater to various health indicators. This comprehensive approach to health management is a testament to HUAWEI's commitment to making advanced health monitoring accessible to all. Recognising the importance of physical exercise in overall health, HUAWEI has made fitness more accessible through engaging courses, activities, and pro-level workouts. Initiatives like the "Light Up Your Rings" activity encourage users to lead more active lifestyles, while the introduction of TruSport™ technology supports over 100 workout modes, ensuring there's something for everyone. 

Looking Ahead: Prioritising Health Challenges 

As we move into 2024, HUAWEI remains focused on addressing key health challenges, with sleep, blood pressure, and mental health management at the top of its agenda. By prioritising these areas, HUAWEI is not just innovating for the sake of technology but is deeply committed to enhancing the well-being of its users worldwide. HUAWEI's journey in the smart wearable industry is a testament to its dedication to innovation, quality, and user-centric design. By focusing on critical health challenges and leveraging cutting-edge technology, HUAWEI is not just leading the way in smart wearables but also profoundly impacting global health management. 

As HUAWEI continues to push the boundaries of what's possible, its wearables are set to become an integral part of people's lives, empowering them to lead healthier, more informed lifestyles.

Bucket Tech: Xperience HUAWEI

Last week saw HUAWEI's Consumer Business Group launch a range of their new devices to the South African Market. This was a major statement from the Chinese manufacturer, solidifying their stance that they're not just a mobile phone maker but so much more. While this is said, there was no doubt the star attraction from the event was their latest flagship mobile device and the first foldable offered in the country from them, the Mate Xs 2. This comes hot on the heels of the previous Mate Xs model which we didn't get in the country. Strategic timing from HUAWEI after their competitors introduced their latest models just a week prior to the Xperience HUAWEI event. Also showcased by HUAWEI that night was their new range topping notebook, a host of wearables and other home devices which I'll go through later in this blog post. 

Mate Xs 2

Lets talk about HUAWEI's first foldable smart phone to be introduced to the SA market, the Mate Xs 2. Firstly, the folding configuration needs to be talked about, its very different from the others on the market as the uni-screen folds around like a book cover rather than sitting on the inside. Now, I know what you're thinking, this makes the screen at a higher risk for getting damaged and scratched, but not to worry, HUAWEI's Mate Xs 2  is made form an innovative composite screen structure which absorbs and mitigates the force of impact making it super durable, having a drop resistance of 2.5x and impact resistance of 2.8x, not forgetting that all important crush resistance of 1.4x. This was demonstrated by Vice President, Akhram Mohammed on stage as he dropped his own Mate Xs 2 while giving us the demo. The Mate Xs 2 features and ultra flat screen when unfolded thanks to the double-rotating Falcon Wing Hinge which opens the massive, industry leading,  7.8-inch screen. 

The True-Chroma Foldable Display features 424 ppi, along with a high resolution of 2480 x 2200 when unfolded. The screens anti-reflection Nano Optical Layer keeps the view clear, even in direct sunlight. Camera's on the Mate Xs 2 is nothing short of what we expecting from their high-calibre of capturing devices in the past. It features a triple-camera system that includes a 50MP True-Chroma Camera, 13MP Ultra-Wide Angle Camera and a 8MP Telephoto Camera. This all sits on the outside bevel of the device which when unfolded gives you a handy notch to hold the device by. The device is super light weighing in at just 255g, this is made possible from using airy-light design and innovative materials including the 3D fiberglass weave which also looks quite stunning. 

The Mate Xs 2 is available locally from September 1st and priced at R39,999 

MateBook X Pro

HUAWEI MateBook X Pro is a new-paradigm laptop that transcends the traditional notion of how a laptop should look and what it is capable of. It comes in a skin-soothing metallic body and elegant colours, Ink Blue and Mystic Silver. The use of light and strong magnesium alloys in the full-CNC unibody design means that the laptop weighs only 1.26 kg making it highly portable and durable. The 14.2-inch Real Colour FullView Display obtained the world's first Eye Comfort 3.0 certification by TÜV Rheinland and universal colour consistency technology ensures that the same pristine colours will be displayed.

The HUAWEI MateBook X Pro takes multi-device collaboration to a whole new level, thanks to the Super Device features. It lets you effortlessly connect to other Huawei devices nearby and collaborate between them all. In addition, with smartphones like the newly launched HUAWEI Mate Xs 2, it is even more useful. Once you have wirelessly connected your phone, you will see its UI (User Interface) appear on your laptop screen, so you can operate it as if your smartphone and laptop are one device.

Pricing for the MateBook X Pro is R35,999

Bucket Tech: Huawei Watch 3

If your devices are going to keep up with your fast-paced, always-active lifestyle, they need to interact seamlessly with one another. Syncing and interconnectivity issues simply won’t do. You need devices – laptops, tablets, smartphones, and wearables – that work as one, with each updating the others as you complete or set certain tasks.

Multinational technology giant Huawei understands this all too well and has always set out to create super devices that can connect to other Huawei products. This means that devices “speak” to each other with ease, and that you can carry on living your life while your favourite pieces of tech offer super-smooth support in the background. The HUAWEI WATCH 3 and WATCH 3 Pro, both of which are now available in South Africa, are no exception. Huawei has once again gone above and beyond in ensuring that these smartwatches add value to your world, rather than frustrating or hindering things in any way.

Running on HarmonyOS 2, the HUAWEI WATCH 3 Series has been designed with the internet of things in mind. HarmonyOS 2 provides a unified language that allows devices to connect and collaborate intelligently, so that you can enjoy a convenient cross-device experience. HarmonyOS 2 also brings a smartphone-like interactive experience to your smartwatch, ensuring everything is within reach on its control panel. View and schedule meetings without needing to take your phone out of your pocket, and receive instant notifications to ensure you don’t miss anything important. A simple swipe will also give you access to your watch’s workout modes, stopwatch, voice assistant, weather, phone, taxi services and navigation.

Yes, you read that right: “phone”. The HUAWEI WATCH 3 Series offers calling capabilities, just like your smartphone. Huawei knows that it’s not always possible or convenient to carry your phone with you, particularly if you’re doing activities like running, swimming, skateboarding or rock climbing. The HUAWEI WATCH 3 Series therefore supports a standalone communication system. By activating the eSIM service on your phone, you can use the same phone number on your Huawei watch, and enjoy the same data and tariff plan. Even if your mobile phone happens to run out of battery on the go, you can still use the HUAWEI WATCH 3 Series for real-time communication. Talk about smooth and seamless!

In emergencies, the HUAWEI WATCH 3 also supports fall detection and SOS alerts to enable phone calls to local emergency services. In help mode, you can choose from “Emergency call”, “I fell but I’m fine” or “I didn’t fall” and your smartwatch will provide you with the necessary support. If you want to take your safety to the next level, you can also activate AA Armed Response on your HUAWEI WATCH 3 or WATCH 3 Pro for just R35 per month. This powerful app enables you to ask for immediate and urgent help from the AA just by selecting the AA panic button. You’ll be able to see when the AA has received your alert, and how long it will take for one of their experienced responders to reach you.

Of course, these incredible connectivity features are only part of what make the HUAWEI WATCH 3 and WATCH 3 Pro super devices. They also come standard with world-class technology, boasting over 100 different workout modes, and the capability of monitoring every aspect of your physical health you might be interested in tracking.

The HUAWEI WATCH 3 Series is available now online at the Huawei Store. The HUAWEI WATCH 3, priced at R7,299, comes in Active Edition and the HUAWEI WATCH 3 Pro, priced at R7,999, comes in Classic Edition. Both devices are also available at Vodacom and Takealot. Ts and Cs apply.
