Last week, Huawei announced its two new fitness wearables – the Huawei Band 2 and Huawei Band 2 Pro with a heart rate sensor that allows all day heart monitoring. Both sport a similar stylish sleek design and are compatible with devices running Android 4.4 OS and later, and those running iOS 8.0 and later.
The duo also offer Activity and Sleep Monitoring, and Breathing Coach feature (i.e providing instructions on how users can learn to breathe properly to relax their bodies), however, the Huawei Band 2 Pro, which is very close to the Fitbit Charge 2 in specs, has additional features such as TruSleep tracking, GPS, Running Coach and VO2 Max measuring (95% accuracy).
Available in Black, Blue and Red colour options, the Band and Band 2 Pro sport a PMOLED display, withstand water pressure up to 50 meters inside water (5 ATM) and relies on a 100mAh battery which charges fully in 1.5 hrs. It can last up to 21 days of usage on a single charge however the Pro model lasts up to 3.5 hrs with GPS turned on.
These bands are listed on the Huawei website and are said to be available in China, however is no word on availability and pricing of these bands.
