Huawei Debuts Watch GT 6, Ultimate 2, D2 and Nova 14 at Paris ‘Ride the Wind’ Event

New sensors with subscription services push wearables beyond step counting into pro‑grade training and health oversight.

Overview

  • Huawei says the Watch GT 6 series adds a wrist‑based cycling power meter and offers up to 21 days of battery life, with expanded modes for trail running, golf and skiing.
  • The Watch Ultimate 2 is presented as dive‑ready to 150 meters with sonar messaging between devices underwater and a submarine SOS mode.
  • The Watch D2 introduces enhanced blood‑pressure features with smart reminders plus individual and ambulatory monitoring aimed at continuous tracking.
  • The Nova 14 series debuts an Ultra Chroma camera claiming 1.5 million spectral channels and a dual 50 MP front setup with autofocus and up to 5x zoom, while the MatePad 12 X PaperMatte pairs a low‑glare display with the new M‑Pencil Pro.
  • Huawei confirms Watch GT 6 availability in Mexico from October 3 with a month of exclusive watch faces and access to Huawei Health+, as wearables shipments grew about 8% in 2024 and Huawei holds roughly 14% smartwatch share with regulators in the UK and EU flagging privacy and accuracy concerns.
