Apart from the Honor 7 announcement yesterday, Huawei also announced a new smartwatch with the Honor Band Zero and a Bluetooth headset called the Honor Whistle. Both feature a brushed metal look and chamfered machined edges for a classy finish. The Honor Band Zero in particular is a circular smartwatch + pedometer and fitness tracker that has IP68 water and dust resistance certification. It looks to come with different coloured bands but the main watch is a silver circle with brushed metal edges. The Honor Whistle on the other hand appears to be a Bluetooth headset which features a circular button on the side, perhaps to control volume. No other details of tech specs, features, Malaysia release dates or pricing were available but these two accessories could arrive alongside the Honor 7 when it makes it's way here to Malaysia.
