Earlier today, Huawei held a launch event in China headlined by the Mate Xs 2 foldable smartphone. The brand also launched new AIoT products at the event like the Huawei Band 7, so let’s take a closer look at the new smart band from the Chinese tech giant.
Huawei Band 7 specs and features
Successor to the Band 6, the new wearable measures 9.99 mm thick and weighs just 16 grams. It has a 1.47-inch AMOLED display with 194 x 368 pixels resolution. Having an AMOLED display gives the watch access to the “Always On” feature without consuming much energy.
It has a button on the right edge for turning the device on or off and to help input commands. The Huawei Band 7 also features multiple sensors like an accelerometer, gyro sensor, and heart rate sensor. It also houses a SpO2 sensor which can help users detect signs of sleep apnea by monitoring their blood-oxygen levels during sleep. The Huawei band 7 also features a reminder function for menstrual cycles.
The smart wearable features 96 sports modes including swimming and can track the number of calories the user has burned during their workouts and sports activities.
The smart band comes with 5ATM protection meaning it can withstand the wearer diving around 50 meters underwater with the Band 7 on. Huawei claims that with a full charge, the battery will last up to 14 days, but this is the best-case scenario with moderate use, and using the “Always On” function will significantly decrease the battery life. Other than that, the smartwatch has over 7000 watch faces and is also available in an NFC-enabled variant.
Huawei Band 7 pricing & availability
The Huawei Band 7 standard variant costs 269 yuan (~$40) while the NFC variant is priced at 309 yuan (~$46) in China. The smart band is available for pre-order and will commence its first sale on May 5.
It comes in four color options – Wild Green, Flame Red, Obsidian Black, and Nebula Pink.
