Huawei initially debuted the Huawei Watch D back in December 2021. However, the availability of the smartwatch was limited to China. Now, the company has finally launched the wearable for the European market. So, let’s take a look at its pricing and launch offers.

Huawei Watch D Europe pricing, availability & offers

Starting off with the UK, the Watch D is not yet available for sale in the country. Instead, the website is displaying a ‘notify me’ button on the product listing. The UK pricing on the other hand is confirmed to be £349.99.

Customers in Eurozone can place a pre-order for the Watch D for €399. This is €50 cheaper than the price announced at IFA 2022 keynote in Berlin. A Huawei Scale 3 smart scale, which usually costs €69, will also be included for free by the company. Additionally, Huawei is giving away €50 off the FreeBuds 4i and FreeBuds Pro 2, as well as a 3-month Huawei Health+ subscription and a three-year warranty rather than a two-year one. Shipments of orders will begin on October 19.

Huawei Watch D specs

The main attraction of the Huawei Watch D is its blood pressure monitoring which uses a similar mechanism as a typical sphygmomanometer ( aka blood pressure cuff). Additionally, it has a skin temperature sensor, an electrocardiogram (ECG), a heart rate monitor, and a SpO2 sensor that can measure blood oxygen levels.

Its body is made out of high-hardness aviation aluminum providing durability and scratch resistance. It features a 1.64-inch HD display with a 326PPI pixel density. The gadget has an IP68 rating for water and dust resistance.

It also supports more than 70 different sports and allows heart rate measurement utilizing an eight-channel, highly sensitive optical sensor. According to the manufacturer, the device should last seven days when using all of its features. Wireless charging is also supported by the smartwatch.

Huawei held a product launch event today, lifting the curtains on multiple devices, with the P50 Pocket and Watch D stealing most of the limelight. We’ll be talking about the latter here and have given all that you need to know about the smartwatch below.

Starting with the design, the Huawei Watch D is made up of a custom-made high hardness aviation aluminum with improved durability and scratch resistance. The display is a squarish one with a size of 1.64-inches and has an HD resolution providing 326 PPI retina-level clarity. The weight has been claimed to be a sixth of a traditional blood pressure monitor.

Huawei also stated that rigorous airtightness testing has granted the Huawei Watch D IP68 water and dust resistance, making it the industry’s first watch with blood pressure monitoring support to come with such a rating. Heart rate detection will be done through an eight-channel high-sensitivity optical sensor and support for 70+ sports modes has been provided.

But it’s the blood pressure monitoring feature that’s undoubtedly the main highlight of the smartwatch. A micropump with a size equal to a dime and with a compression capability of 40kPa has been fitted inside, allowing accurate 40mmHg to 230mmHg blood pressure measurement.

A self-developed hybrid measurement algorithm that makes use of powerful AI computing has also been used to further improve the detection capabilities of the watch. The BP monitoring feature was said to meet standards of the pharmaceutical industry with an extremely small margin for error in measurement.

Blood pressure monitoring has been paired with ECG measurement, which is basically a test to check your heart’s rhythm and electrical activity. Huawei says 6 BP and 5 ECG measurements per day still will grant you up to 7 days of battery life. Filling the watch up again is simple enough through a wireless charging function.

Last but not least, Huawei is also offering professional doctor services covering diet, sleep, and exercise using which you can directly share your health data with doctors, who will then provide a health management plan accordingly. It’s possible that this service will be limited to China alone, where it will be costing 599 Yuan or around $94.

The Huawei Watch D is available in Classic Black and Elegant Titanium color options and will cost you 2,988 Yuan or around $469. It will be going on sale from Christmas (December 25th).
