It appears to be like like the kind of system you’d stumble throughout whereas purchasing for devices from an airplane magazine, however the Huawei Watch Buds are very real, turning a smartwatch right into a charging case for wi-fi earbuds which might be accessible by lifting up the display screen.

According to The Register, Huawei first revealed its Swiss Army Knife of wearables with a teaser video shared via the Chinese social media platform Weibo on November 29, with the promise of a full reveal in the present day. However, only a day later, the corporate followed up with another post on Weibo stating that, “Huawei’s winter full-scene new product launch conference originally scheduled for December 2 will be postponed,” however with no clarification as to why, and no particulars a couple of new launch date. Some have speculated the delays could possibly be Covid-related, nevertheless it may be that Huawei merely didn’t wish to steal the highlight from the first trailer for Cocaine Bear, launched earlier this week.

As a consequence, we don’t have any technical particulars on the Huawei Watch Buds, which is unlucky as a result of we have now lots of questions on battery life (given smartwatches already wrestle in that division), and a pair of wi-fi buds charging inside is one other supply of energy drain.

We additionally don’t know what these will price, however a video on YouTube does present a short hands-on with the system, which is harking back to final yr’s Huawei Watch 3, however a bit thicker to accommodate the earbuds inside. We hope it’ll additionally include a bigger battery, because the Watch 3 mustered simply a few days’ use between costs. It’s not a foul concept for a smartwatch, particularly given how simple it’s to lose wi-fi earbuds and their charging instances, however normally when a tool tries to do too many issues on the similar time, it finally ends up doing none of them nicely.
