[WATCH] Huawei Launches All New Huawei Band 6 in SA
Huawei has announced the newest member of its Band Series, the Huawei Band 6 with enhanced health and fitness monitoring, design and battery life to provide a smartwatch-like experience at a cost effective price point of a smart band.
Justin Sun, General Manager at Huawei Consumer Business Group says the company’s commitment to innovation, quality and customer service has led to the brand becoming No. 1 in the wearables market in South Africa.
Weighing just 18g, the Huawei Band 6 is the company’s first smart band to include a 1.47-inch AMOLED FullView Display with a 64 percent screen-to-body ratio, meaning it can display more information including workout and health data. Users can easily swipe up and down, left and right, just like using a smartphone touchscreen.
Based on the Huawei TruSeen 4.0 and new smart power-saving algorithm, the band 6 now supports All Day SpO2 monitoring. It monitors users’ health and generates an alarm when the blood oxygen level is low, helping them take swift action and manage their health more proactively.
The Band 6 also provides continuous, real-time, and accurate heart rate, sleep and stress monitoring and also alerts the user if the resting heart rate is too high or too low.
The Huawei Band 6 features 96 workout modes including 11 professional workout modes such as indoor and outdoor running, cycling, and rope skipping, and 85 more customized modes, including fitness, ball games, and dancing types, offering wide coverage of workout tracking.
It also adopts Huawei-developed TruSport professional exercise algorithm to deeply analyse users’ exercise capabilities based on multi-dimensional parameters such as heart rate variability data and exercise data, providing them with scientific assessment and suggestions on their exercise capabilities.
Battery life on the Band 6 is great. Supported by a high-efficiency chipset and smart power-saving algorithms, the device enables continuous heart rate and sleep monitoring with a 14-day battery life and supports fast charging via a magnetic charger. One five-minute charge can sustain the smart band for two days of use.
The Huawei Band 6 can intelligently identify unfamiliar numbers, control music playback and remote camera shutter.

The Band 6 comes in two different colour variants of Graphite Black and Sakura Pink
