A leaked retail packaging of the Huawei Watch Buds shows that the smartwatch comes with removable earbuds. If confirmed, the presence of built-in earbuds in the Huawei Watch Buds could mark a significant milestone. This comes on the heels of the recent release of the Huawei Watch GT Cyber. Apart from the removable earbuds, the leaked packaging also shows the hinged display of the Watch Buds.
Huawei has released several smartwatches in 2022, the latest being the Watch GT Cyber with a modular design. Although there has been no official confirmation about the Watch Buds, the new smartwatch could be unique. Its name also points to the possible presence of earbuds in its architecture.
After its April listing by the European Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO), the Watch Buds has been off the front burner of speculations until now. A photo of the Watch Buds has surfaced on multiple social media platforms. The image bears some striking semblance to the Watch GT 3 and the hinged display supports the placement or removal of a pair of earbuds.
The Huawei Watch Buds could be the first smartwatch to feature built-in earbuds, but a few companies have attempted the idea previously. Some of the knotty considerations for such hybrid products are the optimum form factor and battery size. There is also the issue of the space needed to store the earbuds. It is unclear what Huawei might have done to overcome the battery size issue. There are also no indications yet on the launch date of the Watch Buds.
