Late last week, the HUAWEI x GENTLE MONSTER Eyewear II (2) leaked in low quality renders. Today, at the HUAWEI MateBook X 2020 launch event, the company surprised everyone by unveiling it officially. No one expected it today as the first generation product and its refreshed designs debuted at P30 and P40 series events respectively. Hence, we expected it to launch alongside the Mate40 series.
HUAWEI x GENTLE MONSTER Eyewear II Specifications
The newly launched Huawei Eyewear 2 features the same technology as its predecessor. The only difference is that it sports a new design and comes with a redesigned carrying case.
The frame of these smart glasses is made of titanium alloy and has an opening and closing range of 12-degree. Whereas, the temple of the glasses features speakers with custom 128mm² diaphragm on either side to provide stereo sound effects. The company claims a maximum output of only 12dB so that only the wearer could listen to the audio.
The temple can be also used to control music playback, accept/decline calls, and access voice assistant via touch gestures just like the original Huawei Eyewear. Further, the charging case is now rectangular in size and the placement of USB Type-C port as well as the LED indicator has been moved to the centre.
Last but not least, it comes in the following four designs.
- SMART MYMA
- SMART VERONA
- SMART ALIO
- SMART CATTA
