Huawei Watch Air Expected to Launch in China

Huawei's ultra-thin wearable, Huawei Watch Air, is expected to launch in China, although no official date has been announced. The device was recently listed on Indonesia's Komdigi certification database with model number KTA-B19, revealing its existence and manufacturer, PT Huawei Tech Investment and Huawei Device Co., Ltd. This marks a similar pattern to the launch of the Watch D3, which appeared in certification records before its official launch, suggesting that the Watch Air may be closer to launch than initially thought.

The appearance of the Huawei Watch Air on Indonesia's Komdigi certification database has sparked renewed interest in the device, with many speculating about its features and release date. According to reports from Chinese media outlets, PT Huawei Tech Investment, a subsidiary of Huawei Device Co., Ltd., submitted the regulatory filing for the watch. The company is said to be seeking approval for the device's compliance with local regulations, including those related to health and safety standards. Industry insiders believe that this move could signal an imminent launch, although no official date has been confirmed.

PT Huawei Tech Investment and Huawei Device Co., Ltd have submitted a regulatory filing for the Huawei Watch Air, which is classified as a smartwatch with the marketing name attached to it. The applicant is listed as PT Huawei Tech Investment, while Huawei Device Co., Ltd is identified as the manufacturer. This marks a notable move by the company in seeking approval for the device's compliance with local regulations, including health and safety standards. Industry insiders are taking this development as a potential indicator of an imminent launch, although no official release date has been confirmed.

Huawei's decision to trademark the 'OSTA' term in 2004 may be seen as a precursor to its future plans for the sub-brand. The company's move could indicate that OSTA will serve as a separate entity, covering various product lines beyond smartphones. This development suggests that Huawei is looking to expand its portfolio and create distinct brands for different categories of devices. As a result, the launch of the OSTA O1 and O1 Pro smartphones next week may be accompanied by announcements about other products under this new sub-brand.
