Huawei today has announced that both of its latest products, the Watch GT Cyber and MatePad 11 2023, are now available in stores nationwide. However, keep in mind that the wearable is only sold exclusively via Urban Republic’s online and physical stores, while the tablet can be bought through Huawei’s Experience Stores and website, as well as via its official Shopee and Lazada pages.
To recap, the Watch GT Cyber’s major highlight is its unique personalisation gimmick that’s not found on any other smartwatch in the market so far. To be specific, it comes with the ability that allows users to detach its dial from its default bezel and strap, and swap it over to a different one altogether. The base versions available include the sportier Midnight Black or the more premium-looking Golden Black, while sold separately are the Space Grey and all-yellow strap variant. Regardless of which, all of the straps support wrist sizes from 140 to 210 mm.
The detachable dial of Watch GT Cyber features a 1.32-inch AMOLED touchscreen with 466 x 466 pixel resolution, and is water resistant with a rating of 5 ATM. The Urban Edition (Golden Black) has a nanocrystal ceramic and 316 L stainless steel case, while the Sport Edition (Midnight Black) comes with a Fibre-reinforced composite body. Meanwhile, the included straps are made from “high-performance” rubber.
Features-wise, Huawei’s new wearable comes with the usual smart functions such as customisable watch faces, remote calling and music playback, and numerous health and fitness monitoring capabilities. In regards to the latter, onboard are over 100 workout modes, as well as an assortment of health tracking tools for sleep, heart rate, SpO2 and more. The Watch GT Cyber is claimed to be able to last up to seven days of regular use on a full charge.
Next on the list is the Huawei MatePad 11 2023 tablet, which sports an 11-inch 2560 x 1600 pixel IPS display with a refresh rate of 120Hz and a tall 16:10 aspect ratio. Additionally, under its hood is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 chipset that’s paired together with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage with no expandability.
Also onboard are support for Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity, HarmonyOS 3.1, four speakers, two microphones for video calling, a 13MP autofocus rear camera, and a 8MP fixed-lens selfie shooter in front. Powering the tablet is the same 7,250 mAh battery as last year’s model, with a claimed video playback time of 12 hours.
The Watch GT Cyber is retailing at RM 999 for the Midnight Black option and RM 1,099 for the Golden Black variant. On the other hand, the MatePad 11 2023 is offered at RM 1,799 and comes with a free second generation Huawei M-Pencil accessory.
