It seems like we’re approaching saturation point for leaks even before MWC 2014 has even started; master of leaks, evleaks, has posted yet another picture today, this time simply accompanied by the caption “WOW-wei”. Assuming evleaks was making a joke on Huawei‘s oft-mispronounced name, the photo does show the Huawei smartwatch that was leaked just a few days ago by a Huawei executive, accompanied by a mystery device. The device looks almost like the love child of a HTC One and Huawei’s own Ascend P6, and most confusingly, does not resemble any of the devices expected to be announced by Huawei at MWC 2014 including the Ascend P7 and MediaPad X1. It’s also been pointed out that it does look awfully computer generated, but I guess we’ll have to wait and see if Huawei ends up announcing this mystery device in Barcelona.
Mystery device aside, this is a pretty good indication that the Huawei exec actually leaked a production model of the Huawei smartwatch. It looks like Huawei has taken a slightly different approach to smartwatches than say Samsung, instead opting to go with a fitness themed wearable, though how much it is able to do is unknown so far. With all these rumoured devices, Huawei’s press conference at MWC 2014 should be a good one and we can’t wait to see what they have up their sleeves.
What do you think that mystery device is? And do you like the route that Huawei has gone with their first smartwatch? Let us know what you think in the comments.
