And for the first time in the Fit series, you've got ECG measurement baked in, giving you real-time heart health info whenever you need it. These upgrades are clearly aimed at users who want more than just step counts and basic heart rate.
For the first time the Fit series offers ECG with the Fit 4 Pro model. | Image credit – Huawei Battery life is promising too – up to 10 days of use depending on the model, with quick charging: 75 minutes for the Fit 4 and just 60 minutes for the Fit 4 Pro. And both watches support things like quick replies, voice notes, remote shutter, weather updates, and work with both iOS and Android phones. That means even iPhone users can get in on the action without losing key features.Speaking of design, Huawei went all-in with premium materials this time. The Fit 4 Pro sports a sapphire glass display, titanium alloy bezel and aviation-grade aluminum body – all wrapped up in a 9.3mm thin profile that weighs only 30.4 grams. The regular Fit 4 is just as sleek at 9.5mm thick and 27 grams.Both bring a rotating crown for smoother control and a vibrant display that hits up to 3000 nits brightness – perfect for outdoor viewing.
Color options? Plenty. The Fit 4 comes in:
Green
Purple
White
Black
Grey
This is the Fit 4 in the 5 colors listed above. | Image credit – Huawei The Fit 4 Pro keeps it tight with:
The Pro model comes in only three colors – Blue, Black and Green. | Image credit – Huawei Pricing starts at £149.99 (around $199 when directly converted) for the regular Fit 4 and £249.99 (about $330 when directly converted) for the Pro model – both available now on the official Huawei store. As for US availability, there is no official word yet, but based on previous launches, they are expected to show up on Amazon. And the price in the US could be a bit lower, but to be sure, stay tuned for updates!Now, if Huawei isn't really your thing but you are still on the lookout for a new smartwatch focused on health and fitness tracking, Google's Fitbit lineup might be a good fit.
The Charge 6 comes packed with a strong set of health sensors and sports tracking features that easily rival what Huawei offers. It also comes in at a similar price, making it a solid alternative – especially if you prefer something more widely supported in the US with easy access to Google services and apps right out of the box.

Weekly poll results: Apple Watches surprisingly popular, Google and Samsung need to step up their game
While smartphones have converged on pretty much the same formula, there is a wide variety of smart watch/band/ring/etc. devices out there. And the results from last week's poll are quite interesting. Most of our readers who use a smart wearable have an Apple Watch. We are pretty sure that most of our readers have Android phones, but apparently, they don't use smart wearables all that much. That aside, Wear OS is surprisingly low – almost half the popularity of Apple's watchOS watches. Other advanced smartwatch platforms (e.g. Huawei) are also more popular than the platform that is primarily supported by Google and Samsung. Here's another result that we didn't expect – smart bands are more popular than basic smartwatches. Unlike their Wear OS/watchOS counterparts, basic smartwatches offer essentially the same functionality as smart bands. Their only real advantage is aesthetics – if you want a round watch on your wrist that is. Some smart bands offer great battery life despite smaller batteries and they are cheaper and smaller to boot. Smart rings are a very new category, so they are still a blip on the radar, as expected. It would be interesting to see how that changes in the next few years. Smart wearables differ from smartphones in another important way – people are in no rush to upgrade them. More than half the voters in the second poll will be keeping their wearable this year. We set a relatively short time frame, asking about plans to upgrade this year. But reading through the comments, it's clear that many use watches/bands that are 3, 4 or even 5 years old. Smartphone upgrade cycles are getting longer, but they aren't at that level yet. Only 7% of voters will be buying their first smart wearable this year, which suggests that the market is becoming saturated – everyone who wanted one, already has one. Of course, our audience is more tech-savvy than most, so buying into more tech gadgets early is not surprising.

Samsung confirms tri-fold phone and XR headset for later this year
Stylized version of Samsung tri-fold render from One UI teardown. | Image credit — Android Authority Samsung has officially confirmed that both a tri-folding smartphone and an XR headset will launch before the end of 2025. The announcement came during the company's latest earnings call, where it also reiterated its commitment to new AI-powered form factors across the Galaxy ecosystem. The long-rumored Galaxy Z TriFold, will reportedly use two inward-folding hinges that fully protect the flexible display when shut. That contrasts with Huawei's outward-folding Mate XT Ultimate, where part of the screen remains exposed even when folded. This approach could make the device more durable and give it an edge over Huawei's — especially as the foldables market becomes more competitive. According to what was said in the earnings call, Samsung is targeting an October release for this TriFold. This would make it the first (globally available, I hope) mainstream tri-folding smartphone from a major global brand. Apple, by comparison, is not expected to launch its first foldable iPhone until sometime in late 2026. — Samsung Electronics second quarter 2025 results The Galaxy Z Fold 7, which recently set preorder records in the US, already showed that demand for advanced foldables is growing. Adding a TriFold to the lineup would further differentiate Samsung's portfolio and help fend off rising competition from Huawei, Honor, and others working on alternative form factors. Samsung's "Project Moohan" XR headset. | Image credit — Samsung In the same earnings call, Samsung confirmed it will also launch its XR headset before year's end. Unlike the Apple Vision Pro, which uses Apple's visionOS, Samsung's headset will be the first to run Android XR. From a competitive standpoint, Samsung's decision to move ahead of Apple in both foldables and XR shows a more aggressive approach than usual. Historically, Apple has waited to perfect hardware categories before entering, while Samsung often aims to be first. This time, that head start might prove useful. If Samsung can deliver real durability and usability in its TriFold, without making the device too bulky, it could set a new benchmark. Still, as prices did increase for the Galazy Z Fold 7 this year, what the price point will be for a TriFold is still a big consideration. That and software optimization will ultimately determine whether this form factor becomes mainstream or remains niche in the global market.
