HUAWEI Watch GT5 and Watch GT 5 Pro: Affordable Smartwatches for the Thai Market

HUAWEI has announced the prices of its Watch GT5 and Watch GT 5 Pro in Thailand, starting from 6,990 baht. This move aims to make HUAWEI a leader in the smartwatch market, with a more affordable price than the Apple Watch and compatibility with all smartphone operating systems.

HUAWEI’s Wearable Device Segment Leadership

Louie Hu, marketing director of Huawei Consumer Business Group in Southeast Asia, stated that HUAWEI became a leader in the wearable device segment globally and in Thailand last June. This achievement is attributed to HUAWEI’s in-house product research and development, as well as its production of a variety of products that create a complete ecosystem of applications.
