Late last year, Xiaomi launched its first-ever proper smartwatch. Soon, OPPO followed suit with its product earlier this year. The former is still limited to China but the latter has made its way to global markets. According to certifications, vivo will be the next Chinese smartphone maker to join this bandwagon. A UI patent by the company now reveals the watch faces of the brand’s first smartwatch.
Just like most patents, this one was also first spotted by LetsGoDigital. Vivo filed this patent in April and it got published by CNIPA (China National Intellectual Property Administration) on August 7.
Vivo patented only two watch faces. The first one has blue and green circles with vivo logo at the centre. As per the description in the document, the circles will change according to the user’s goal progress. In other words, it is a knock-off of Apple Watch’s Rings.
On the other hand, the second watch face has an analog clock with vital details like date, step count and two more things which could not understand.
Having said, these watch faces confirm the upcoming vivo smartwatch to feature a circular design unlike Xiaomi Mi Watch and OPPO Watch. This wearable even passed through 3C and Bluetooth SIG recently. Hence, we can expect Vivo to launch it anytime soon in the coming weeks.
