Huawei on January 29 disclosed a patent for a "watch" design similar to the Huawei TalkBand B6, according to data provider Qichacha.
The rendering in the patent shows that the watch body is curved and the dial uses a curved flexible screen.
The bottom of the watch has a sensor assembly with a small bump, but no charging electrode.
The front of the watch is narrow, with a button on the right side and two symmetrical buttons on the bottom, left and right.
The design is similar to that of the Huawei B6, with a narrower screen than the Huawei WATCH FIT.
The Huawei B6 has a detachable design that turns it into a Bluetooth earphone when you take it off, and the symmetrical mechanical button below the shell can be used to remove the band itself.
There is no charging electrode on the bottom of the Huawei B6 as it uses the built-in Type-C connector for charging.
The patent, filed on May 22, describes "this product is primarily used for timing, pedometry, measurement of physical data, and communication."
Huawei says the TalkBand B6 can measure heart rate, blood oxygen, sleep status, and has heart health management to detect arrhythmias, atrial fibrillation, and premature beat screening.
The Huawei TalkBand B6 was released on July 30, 2020, and priced at RMB 949 ($147).
