News & Reviews:   SmartWatch

The rumour of OnePlus launching its first smartwatch has been going on for a long time. We've seen tons of news regarding the smartwatch but the actual product is still nowhere to be found. However, the company has promised that it will arrive early this year. Therefore, le's hope that the plan goes smoothly this time. Before the launch, it is discovered that two smartwatches have been certified by BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards) under OnePlus.

Yup, you read that right. New case studies are saying that smartwatches may have a key to detect a COVID-19 virus. According to research from Mount Sinai Health System, Stanford University and other reputable medical and academic institutions, smartwatches such as Apple Watch, Garmin and Fitbit can detect infections before the symptoms start appearing up to 7 days.

Earlier rumour has suggested that OnePlus is finally planning to enter the smartwatch market after many years. Now, the good news has arrived with the CEO confirming that the company is indeed working on a smartwatch after all. Other than that, the CEO has also revealed that the wearable will come with Google's Wear OS.

The devices around keep getting more sophisticated, so it's not surprising that someday we'd see smartwatches have unexpected features. Apple has been looking to innovate on smartwatches too, but one of the company's latest idea is wilder than you'd expect.

You've already seen the Shopee version of the news, so you know what's coming tomorrow, right? Of course, when it comes to popular e-commerce platforms in Malaysia there's also Lazada. Like its competitor, Lazada's 12.12 Grand Year End Sale will come with flash deals and all-day sales.

After releasing HarmonyOS 2.0, it's time for HUAWEI to integrate the operating system (OS) with some of the product categories and sell them. Earlier, it has been announced that the OS will be used by IoT devices including smartwatches, smart TVs, cars, and more. Now, it looks like progress will be made as the company could be launching the first smartwatch with HarmonyOS soon.

Now that more brands have smartbands and smartwatches, it's important for leading companies to have new ideas to stay ahead. Apple seems to have a pretty good one too if it ends up becoming a reality. Specifically, we're referring to a patent for a unique smartband design.

After the OnePlus 8T Cyberpunk 2077 Limited Edition launched last week, it is now rumoured that the brand will follow up with a smartwatch that comes with the video game-inspired theme as well. Believe it or not, an image of the watch strap that has an imprint of the Cyberpunk 2077 logo was discovered online today.

A brand that has been making waves in the smartwatch market this year is Amazfit. The company has released quite a few new smartwatches this year and there's more to come soon. It has been confirmed that a new model for the Zepp brand would be launched soon.

Smartwatch is a rising tech gadget in recent years as evidenced by sales reports from the wearable industry. Not only it is slowly replacing conventional watches, but it has also demonstrated several features that are of great help for users. Now, researchers are working on a technology that allows users to charge their smartwatches just by moving.
