Huawei just unveiled Maimang 9, a mid-range 5G smartphone in China yesterday. But the company is already teasing a new product launch for July 30. Although the teaser doesn’t say much, we think it to be Huawei TalkBand B6, the successor to TalkBand B5 from 2018.
This is not the first time we are hearing about Huawei TalkBand B6, a fitness band cum Bluetooth headset. The wearable is in the news since last week due to a couple of leaks, which shed some details about this upcoming product.
The major difference between the new TalkBand and its predecessors will be its display. Even the teaser image kind of confirms the same. Unlike previous iterations of the wearable with flat-screen, the forthcoming TalkBand B6 is said to sport a 1.53-inch flexible AMOLED display.
Another big change will be the presence of the company’s in-house HiSilcon Kirin A1 chip. The same chipset powers the brand’s TWS and smartwatches such as Huawei Watch GT 2 and Huawei Watch GT 2e.
Further, it is expected to feature Bluetooth 5.2 for connectivity with a maximum range of 150 metres. Also, the leaks confirm USB Type-C port with support for fast charging.
According to leaks. the Huawei TalkBand B6 like the company’s fitness bands and smartwatches will have features like heart rate sensor, SpO2 sensor, fitness tracking, sleep tracking, app notifications, weather, Xiaoyi AI voice assistant, and more.
Last but not least, it is tipped to come in a total of three variants and four color options. They are stainless steel, beige leather, and silicon version in Black and Red color paint job.
