Huawei Rises to the Top of the Global Wearable Market

According to the latest findings from IDC's Worldwide Quarterly Wearable Device Tracker, Huawei has clinched the number one position in the global wrist-worn wearable device market for the first quarter of 2025. This significant achievement reflects Huawei's robust growth momentum and its stronghold in the Chinese market. As of June 5, 2025, the cumulative global shipments of Huawei wearable devices have surpassed the impressive milestone of 200 million units.

Huawei offers five main product lines that cater to a diverse array of user needs, encapsulating fashionable designs along with professional sports and health features. The company's devices promise efficiency and practicality, creating an integrated smart experience for users worldwide.

Diverse Products for Varied Needs

The HUAWEI WATCH series includes cutting-edge smart technologies equipped with features such as independent calling and smart vehicle control, allowing users to embrace an effective and intelligent lifestyle. The newly launched HUAWEI WATCH 5 enhances efficiency and comfort, featuring innovative multi-frame X-TAP technology that opens up new dimensions in health monitoring and interactive experiences.

The HUAWEI WATCH FIT series caters to users looking for lightweight wearables, thanks to their slim design and extensive sports functions, allowing for enriched daily enjoyment.

For extreme sports enthusiasts, the HUAWEI WATCH Ultimate Series offers maximum reliability with a rugged design, advanced sports modes for professional diving up to 100 meters, and outdoor expedition functions. Furthermore, it includes an advanced golf course mode, addressing the needs of all types of users.

Additionally, Huawei has taken proactive steps to address hypertension-related challenges by introducing the HUAWEI WATCH D, a wrist-based blood pressure measurement device. This innovative watch utilizes a groundbreaking feature of 24-hour dynamic blood pressure monitoring, empowering users to track their blood pressure anytime and anywhere, integrating professional healthcare into their daily lives.

Innovation Spearheading New Technologies

Driven by the desire to meet user demands in sports health management, Huawei is committed to continually investing in wearable device innovations. The company has established three health labs around the globe, leveraging the capabilities of over ten research institutes to push the boundaries of sports health technology.

In 2024, Huawei launched a new digital health and fitness paradigm known as the TruSense system, which promises greater accuracy and speed in monitoring vital data. By 2025, the TruSense system was further improved, combining the advantages of fingertip and wrist detection to provide comprehensive, accurate, and rapid health monitoring, including a ten-second blood oxygen reading at the fingertip and an increase in micro-body measurement indicators to 17 items.

As a pioneer in blood pressure measurement technology, Huawei launched the HUAWEI WATCH D, which has received Class II medical device registration certification in China. This innovation is now included in the “Chinese Guidelines for Hypertension Prevention and Treatment (Revised 2024).” To date, Huawei’s wearables have obtained seven domestic medical certifications and health device certifications in 13 overseas countries/regions, alongside nearly 1,000 patent applications in the smart wearable device space.

Building a Sports Health Lifestyle Together

Huawei is actively engaging global users in co-developing a sports health lifestyle. In September 2023, the company initiated the “Light Up Your Rings” campaign, which attracted over six million participants globally, with users lighting up their rings over three hundred million times. The newly launched Active Rings initiative in 2025 promotes joyful movement anytime, anywhere with Huawei's wearable devices, having previously taken place in countries such as Germany, Spain, and China. The consumption experience of enjoying active moments together will be gradually rolled out to Asia-Pacific countries, Latin America, the Middle East, and beyond.

With continuous innovation and a keen understanding of user needs, Huawei aims to maintain its status as a leader in the wearable device industry, fostering healthier, more active lifestyles worldwide.
