Huawei Watch Buds Put a Spin on Smartwatches

Even with all the tech-based features that they bring to the table, smartwatches still have to strike the optimal balance between style and functionality. With Huawei Watch Buds, the popular mobile device manufacturer aims to achieve the same feat. 

That’s right. Huawei is indeed launching a smartwatch that is not only paired with earbuds, but contains them within itself. The idea might seem ridiculous or even undoable at first thought. But if you are already wondering, are Huawei Watch Buds real? You can get your answer in a resounding ‘Yes.’ 

The Huawei Watch Buds is first and foremost a smartwatch. This means that it has the digital screen and minimalist strap that has become a signature of smartwatches. But once you flip the dial upwards, you can find two earbuds encased just under it. 

This also makes the Huawei Watch Buds a smartwatch that supposedly doubles as an earbud charging case, and vice versa. At the time of writing, pictures of the Huawei Watch Buds have already leaked online. If you were asking yourself: Are Huawei Watch Buds real? This answers the question for you. But it then raises more inquiries about the practicality and appeal of the design for real-world users.

For one, the smartwatch size gets quite thick in the pictures. Additionally, it may also become bulkier to wear on your wrist all day due to the apparent battery that is encased inside of it. This presents Huawei Watch Buds as a novel concept that is interesting enough to turn heads, but also makes it a gimmick-type design that ends up being less practical than it intends to be. 

The Huawei Watch Buds announcement was due to come in the first week of December. But at the time of writing, it has been postponed indefinitely. This means that if you want to find out more details about the watch from Huawei itself, you will have to wait for it.
