As Smartwatches become more and more mainstream, tech giants such as Huawei are leaving no stone unturned to cover all bases for their upcoming smartwatches. The Huawei Watch Ultra is the company’s latest offering, and it is due to launch on March 23. Ahead of its official launch, hands-on images of the smartwatch have surfaced online, increasing the anticipation of the same.

Although the photo’s source has not been disclosed by the leaker, it is likely to have originated from Chinese social media. At first glance, the Watch Ultimate appears to be a sturdier iteration of Huawei’s other high-end smartwatches, such as the Watch 3 Pro. However, Huawei has abandoned the digital crown found on the likes of the Watch Buds and replaced it with three circular hardware buttons. This is quite reminiscent of the design of the Apple Watch Ultra.

It seems that the Watch Ultimate does not support interchangeable watch straps, as there is no apparent gap between its strap and body. Additionally, the hands-on image below illustrates the watch’s minimal bezels. It remains uncertain whether its tachymeter serves a decorative or operational purpose. The Huawei WATCH Ultimate has a tough shape design with a fully functional bezel scale. The smartwatch is being promoted with the “Start Up Now” slogan and the appearance of satellite points to support satellite communications. It is also likely that the smartwatch will have a longer battery life to go with its rugged outlook. The Watch Ultimate is set to launch in China on March 23, and it is yet to be confirmed by Huawei whether there will be a global release.
