Looking to catch a new, budget-friendly fitness tracker? The grapevine suggests that, in 2025, Huawei could have something arriving to just fit your needs-the Huawei Band 10. It looks like it won't be coming alone.
Huawei Band 10: Evolutionary Updates Expected
According to the ever-reliable rumor mill, specifically Fixed Focus Digital, Huawei is gearing up for the 10th iteration of its popular Band series. Will the Band 10 be a massive leap forward or rather a subtle refinement? That remains to be seen.
Given the evolutionary leap-or lack thereof-of design from Band 8 to 9, some question whether Band 10 will keep a similar form factor. Consider Huawei's strategy with their foldables or smartwatches: sometimes, changes are under the hood rather than something as radical as changing the overall design.
The Band series consistently shines in value. The Band 9 currently sits around the $60 mark. It is hoped the Band 10 will be similarly wallet-friendly, offering a feature-heavy fitness tracker without the hefty price tag. Optimized HarmonyOS integration for fitness tracking is expected. This should bring even smoother performance and new features.
Introducing "Arc": Huawei's New Sports Buds Line
Things get really interesting here. Whispers suggest that the Band 10 will be joined by an all-new audio product line, dubbed "Arc." Details are incredibly vague at this stage, described simply as "sports buds." This immediately suggests earbuds designed with workouts in mind. Perhaps featuring ear-hooks for a secure fit, like those that stay put during intense gym sessions or runs.
Does "Arc" represent Huawei's answer to open-ear sports buds? It could be - though the company already offers the stylish FreeClip open-ear series. Perhaps "Arc" will be more rugged and performance-oriented compared to the fashion-forward FreeClip. This is pure speculation at this point. However, it is intriguing to contemplate Huawei fleshing out its audio portfolio with a dedicated sports bud offering.
Launch Window: Spring 2025 Anticipated
When can we expect these new Huawei gadgets? The current timeframe being floated is March to April 2025. This spring launch window might also coincide with the release of other Huawei products, possibly including the Pocket 3 clamshell phone. Keep your eyes peeled as we move further into 2025. The budget-friendly fitness tech scene is about to get a shake-up from Huawei soon.
