New Delhi, Dec 2
The much-awaited Huawei GT-2 smartwatch which is set to be launched in India on December 5, will be available across offline and online channels, the company said on Monday.
The watch is equipped with Huawei's proprietary Kirin A1 chipset, which augments its battery life drastically.
The Kirin A1 chipset integrates an advanced Bluetooth processing unit, a powerful audio processing unit, an ultra-low power consumption application processor and a separate power management unit.
It is the first ever wearable chip that supports both wireless audio devices and smartwatches.
The Huawei Watch GT 2 will mark the debut of Kirin A1 in India, paving the way for Huawei to further its footprint in India's wearable segment down the road.
Equipped with enhanced fitness tracking features, the Huawei Watch GT 2 can monitor different workout modes including triathlons/hikes.
