Huawei has used the MWC event to unveil their anticipated wearable device, the TalkBand B1.
The TalkBand has a 1.4-inch flexible OLED display but notably also includes a removable earpiece that allows for wireless calling.
As expected, the device will mainly be a fitness tracker, including a pedometer, calories burned and more. Additionally, the smartband is also a sleeping pattern monitor, which allows you to use the smart alarm function to wake you up at the most optimal time, when you will be the most rested.
For the calling, NFC or Bluetooth 4.1 pairs the device to your smartphone and the large 90mAh battery should give you almost a week of use. The band is also dust and water-proof.
The device will hit China next month, and then Western Europe, Japan and the Middle East in April. So far, only the European price has been revealed, a reasonable €99.
