Just about everyone is going into the wearable market and Huawei subsidiary, Honor which unveiled their first 'smartwatch' late last year says that it'll be coming to Malaysia early next week. The honor Band Z1 is mostly like all the fitness trackers out there, it'll track your steps, track your sleep and just like a fitbit, you'll be able to receive notifications from the iOS or Android device that the device is paired with.

honor Band Z1 Key Specifications:

• 1.06-inch 128x128 OLED display
• Cortex M4 STM32F411 CPU
• 128KB RAM
• 70mAh battery
• iOS/Android
• IP68 certification
• 229.4 x 38 x 9.5mm
• 25g

While this is not a high end wearable like the Huawei Wactch, it does come with a touch OLED display that is not something you see too much in this price point. Usually it's just button and a few simple LEDs. But the honor Band Z1 not only has a circular round display to make it look normal on your hands, the device itself is IP68 certified meaning you can bring it on to a swim and is rated to up to 10 metres of depth.


At just RM 259, the honor Band Z1 sounds like a pretty good deal compared to competing trackers from fitbit and misfit at the same price. Again, the honor Band Z1 will support both iOS and Android and will be offered in three colors which are white, khaki and black. Honor Malaysia will exclusively offer the honor Band Z1 next tuesday which is the 19th of January (2016) through their vmall.my online store at exactly 3.08PM. Probably an auspicious time of the day to start selling a wearable.
