According to the recently published Worldwide Quarterly Wearable Device Tracker report, Huawei registered a 118.5 percent increase in smartwatch shipments year on year, making it the only smartwatch brand to grow more than 100 percent.
In the smartwatch segment, with more than 16.9 million units of smartwatches shipped in the first quarter of 2020 worldwide, Huawei ranked second with 2.6 million units shipped.
The report which was released by the International Data Corporation (IDC) also showed that global shipments of wearable devices reached 72.6 million units in the first quarter of 2020, with a year-on-year increase of 29.7 percent.
The IDC report said that Huawei continued to grow thanks to its strong online presence and close ties with retailers.
The growth in Huawei’s smartwatch business is resulting from its new product launch in the first quarter as well as constant optimisation of fitness and health features. In the first quarter in 2020, Huawei launched the new Huawei Watch GT 2 Series devices globally. Through continuous optimisation in sensor technology, Huawei smartwatches bring remarkable advantages in fitness and health tracking. The SpO2 blood oxygen level measuring feature that came with the new Huawei Watch GT Series also received positive feedback from the market. To that extent, the Huawei Watch GT 2e launched in Q1 2020 received the “Best Choice” award from Pocketnow, a top global tech outlet.
Furthermore, as Huawei is accelerating the implementation of 1+8+N All-Scenario Seamless AI Life Strategy in 2020, Huawei smartwatches are integrating into Huawei’s all-scenario ecosystem, offering consumers richer fitness and health experiences.
