Now the wait is ended! Huawei has officially launched the first device that will be running on the HarmonyOS 2.0 which is the Huawei Watch 3 series.
The Huawei Watch 3 series has launched with two variants namely- Huawei Watch 3 and Huawei Watch 3 Pro. Just before the start of the launch event, the company has launched the official promo video of this series. Now let’s explore the official specifications, features and price of the Watch 3 series.
The Huawei Watch 3 uses a 3D rotating crown which is replacing the top button on the right. Huawei believes that this can provide an intuitive way to cooperate with the UI, and is more practical (unlike the touch screen, it can work with wet hands or even with gloves).
In the Huawei Watch 3 series, the company has reduced the border around the screen as much as possible. The smartwatch has launched with a 1.43-inch AMOLED panel that can reach 1000 nits of brightness and a pixel density of 326 PPI.
The Huawei Watch 3 has 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of storage, supports 5ATM water resistance, the watch body has a diameter of 46.2mm, a thickness of 12.15mm, and weighs 54 grams without a strap.
The display of this watch is covered with tempered glass for protection, the body is made of high-quality steel, and the back is made of ceramic. In addition, Huawei provides several different designs for watches: Active (with silicone strap), Classic (leather strap), Elite (metal strap) and Classic (Milan strap).
The sensor kit on the back of the watch includes a heart rate and blood oxygen (SpO2) sensor, as well as a skin temperature sensor. The smartwatch also has 24/7 pressure and sleep tracking functions, which can help users discover health hazards in time.
Consumers will use this smartwatch without any smartphones and they will operate it just like a smartphone as well because it supports eSIM with 4G networks, and can also make calls, or use the “flow” just introduced from Huawei mobile phones to push some music to the Bluetooth headset. Although, the Huawei Watch 3 has supports the video calling features but the watch has not carried any front and back cameras.
The Huawei Watch 3 launched with a pre-installed HarmonyOS 2.0 operating system and it allows to download and installation of the HarmonyOS application directly on this watch, which can be used independently without a smartphone.
The machine has a battery life of 3 days in standard mode (4G enabled), and up to 14 days in long battery life (only some important functions such as blood oxygen monitoring, 14 exercise modes, Bluetooth calls, etc. are enabled).
In terms of the battery, the company has claimed that the smartwatch has provided up to 3 or 4 days battery life with a single charge which means the Chinese tech giant Huawei has done a great job in the battery section. Also, you can operate this smartwatch for up to 14 days with some important features like blood oxygen monitoring, 14 exercise modes, Bluetooth calls, etc.
 Now come to the exercise modes, this watch supports more than 100 modes, including 17 professional exercise modes (outdoor and indoor), as well as a fall-detection function.
The Watch 3 Pro design, specification and features are very similar to the Huawei Watch 3 but the appearance of this watch is more classic, especially the outer frame design. The smartwatch measures 48 x 48.6 x 14 mm and weighs 63 grams.
The Huawei Watch 3 Pro body is made of titanium alloy (ceramic on the back), the display is covered with sapphire glass, the standard battery life is 5 days, and it can be increased to 21 days in the long standby mode.
Huawei’s big boss just hinted at exciting new things for their software in 2024! Expect fresh products built on their latest HarmonyOS NEXT system.
During the Fan Club (Pollen) Annual Conference 2023, Yu Chengdong announced that Huawei plans to reveal several advanced products next year. He also predicted the launch of HarmonyOS NEXT products and improved native application experiences in 2024.
The CEO didn’t share when exactly the new software and native applications would be released, but we can anticipate the official reveal to happen in early 2024.
Huawei needs to make HarmonyOS fully independent and essential without relying on Android libraries soon. Hopefully, the company will speed up its efforts in the coming days.
Many app developers, such as Alipay, McDonald’s, HiPaint, Bank of Communications, and others, have joined native app development for HarmonyOS. The goal is to create a strong app ecosystem independent of Android and iOS.
Huawei is set to offer HarmonyOS-based courses, with approval for 55 projects and over 10 universities planning to launch these courses soon.
Huawei plans to introduce apps in more than 18 categories, focusing on digital and financial sectors. According to Yu Chengdong, these native HarmonyOS applications aim to be smoother, smarter, safer, and more comprehensive compared to iOS and Android.
