    Huawei Unveils New Wearables: Watch 4 Pro Space Exploration, Watch GT 4 Grass Green & Band 9

    Huawei recently unveiled three wearable gadgets on their official Weibo page: The Huawei Watch 4 Pro Space Exploration, Huawei GT 4 in Grass Green and Huawei Band 9.

    Huawei Watch 4 Pro Space Exploration

    Tomorrow will see the official debut of two wearable devices designed specifically to commemorate space exploration: Huawei Watch 4 Pro Space Exploration stands out with its design inspired by deep space travel; an official teaser video was recently released for this watch.

    This watch comes equipped with a sapphire glass display and durable exterior made of "ultra-tough diamond-like titanium," as well as an ultra-microcrystalline ceramic bezel to add both durability and premium appeal. In addition, its micro health check software and UWB Touchless Car Key capabilities make this watch ideal for everyday life; unfortunately they’re exclusive to Wenjie M9/Wenjie M7 models after an OTA update but won’t work with iOS devices.

    Huawei Watch GT 4

    Now available in an all new Grass Green color variant, Huawei’s Watch GT 4 smartwatch boasts an extended 14 day battery life, over 100 fitness tracker options (over 100 sports!) and advanced health monitoring features like sleep tracking, heart rate monitoring and SpO2 levels monitoring. Furthermore, this AMOLED display with customizable watch faces, precise GPS and Bluetooth calling abilities as well as HarmonyOS 4.0 operating software is fully compatible with both Android and iOS devices allowing for multiplatform compatibility and seamless compatibility when connected.

    Huawei Band 9

    New to Huawei’s wearable devices is the Huawei Band 9, an intelligent band designed for people interested in health monitoring. Officially launched globally last month, this band represents its company’s expansion in wearable devices.

    Huawei plans to create extra excitement by hosting five nights of live streams for five consecutive nights, each covering one of Huawei’s product categories – starting off with wearable products on April 8th at 7.00 PM for unveiling three devices!

    Tomorrow at 10:08 AM, pre-orders of these wearables will become available via all channels in China, with an official sales launch set for April 12th at the same time.

  • DSCC Forecasts Wearables to Lead MicroLED Market

    DSCC Forecasts Wearables to Lead MicroLED Market

    Forecast Analysis of the MicroLED Market

    Summary

    Display Supply Chain Consultants (DSCC), a renowned research entity specializing in display industry evaluation, has unveiled an extensive forecast analysis concerning the MicroLED market. The forecast anticipates substantial growth and transformative market dynamics by the year 2028, elucidating emerging patterns and obstacles within the realm of MicroLED displays.

    MicroLED’s Ascendancy in Wearable Technologies

    The advent of MicroLED technology is poised to revolutionize the display landscape owing to its superior characteristics relative to traditional LED displays. MicroLED displays boast enhanced energy efficiency, diminished risk of burn-in, and prolonged longevity. By virtue of their pixel-level light sources, MicroLED displays deliver heightened contrast, accelerated response rates, and a gamut of vibrant hues, rendering them particularly suitable for devices necessitating top-tier display functionalities.

    Prognosticated Market Expansion

    DSCC foresees a burgeoning MicroLED market, surging to a value of $1.46 billion by 2028. This expansion is largely anticipated to be propelled by the integration of MicroLED technology in wearable gadgets such as smartwatches, AR glasses, and automotive screens. Wearables, characterized by compact screen dimensions and lower pixel densities, offer a conducive environment for MicroLED displays, thereby circumventing challenges associated with meager production yields in larger display formats.

    Impediments and Foreseen Innovations

    Notwithstanding its promise, the MicroLED market is confronted with impediments. The sluggish adoption of AR/VR applications and plausible setbacks in anticipated products like Apple’s MicroLED smartwatch have necessitated adjustments in DSCC’s projections. The inaugural MicroLED smartwatch, targeting the upscale market segment, is anticipated to debut next year, albeit the identity of the manufacturer remains undisclosed.

    Major Players and Strategic Blueprints

    Apple emerges as a pivotal entity in this evolving landscape. The company is poised to unveil its first Apple Watch (Ultra variant) furnished with a microLED display screen in the autumn of 2025, with large-scale manufacturing slated to commence in early 2026. Furthermore, Apple is strategizing to transition its Vision Pro headset from micro-OLED to MicroLED technology. Samsung, too, is charting its course by integrating Micro LED displays in its smartwatch lineup, potentially commencing with the "Galaxy Watch Ultra," with the overarching objective of displacing OLED technology within a span of a year.

    Optimistic Prognosis for the iPhone 15 Series

    DSCC’s evaluation portends a buoyant outlook for Apple’s iPhone 15 series, marked by a notable upswing in panel dispatches vis-à-vis antecedent iterations. The iPhone 15 Pro variants have garnered escalating popularity, clinching a commanding 71% stake in overall panel shipments. The escalated base price of the iPhone 15 Pro Max alongside consumers’ penchant for higher-capacity iterations have catalyzed a 5% uptick in the Average Selling Price (ASP) for the iPhone 15 series.
