        David, 27 Mar 2023I surprised they managed to fit all the internals in the wa... moreYou don't have to wonder, just read the article

          I actually bought this and love it except for one thing. I made the jump and bought it online, primarily because I have been using the Talkband B2 and then the B5 for a few years now and I love them.

          My work is often hands on, sometimes on a ladder, and having a device which allows me to see who is calling or messaging and then pick up the call via the Bluetooth with one hand is such a boon.

          The Watch Buds takes it to a new level in several ways: nicer looking, buds that fit better, watch battery that lasts for days while charging the buds. Everyone that have seen them have commented on how nice it looks and 3 of them have picked one up for themselves.

          For those who are concerned with losing the buds or the display opening being fragile, I'm pleased to report that the buds are held very fast by the magnets, and the display is very sturdy even when open.

          The one thing that I'm unhappy with? There is no call answering nor canned message replying to WhatsApp calls and messages as of now. This should be fixed by a future release of WhatsApp, and I can also side load WhatsApp on the Watch itself, just have not got around to trying that out.

          Otherwise, this is truly a watch and Bluetooth earbuds solution that I love and wear everyday.

Just wait for 20 years and we will get a breakthrough innovation of a 360 degree plug-it-however-you-like, robust as a steel rod 3.5mm pin with studio like sound quality advanced technology which does not have the harshness of digital sound. The added benefit is that you can use the usb-c port simultaneously for other purpose like an external storage. But you won't need it as they offer a industry first expandable SD card support.

                  Stone Age tech keep moving backwards

                    Rebredo, 27 Mar 2023WOW amazing. Apple rip, Samsung ripAt €499/£449 , Huawei Watch Buds is a tough sell given that you can buy a premium smartwatch and have money to spare on a great pair of earbuds too.

                      Mediatek sux, 27 Mar 2023Companies can put a tws inside a watch, but no sdslot or ja... moreBecause then the said companies (and third parties) can release TWS as the only option for private listening, and also charge extortionate amounts for smartphones with larger on-board storage. Then there are the customers that think that thinner/slimmer smartphones are in some way better. But mostly, it's all about the money, honey...

                        Companies can put a tws inside a watch, but no sdslot or jack on phones!

                          Do the earbuds have a separate cradle apart from the watch for charging? For heavy earphone users, it will be harmful to the watch.

                            I surprised they managed to fit all the internals in the watch and still make space for earphones. I also wonder what the battery life will be with less space and it has to provide charging.

                                Even tough this is not Huawei who come up with it but still it is the best solution.
                                Better to have the headphones inside the watch then in an extra box to have with you that also can be easily lost. At least the box is a watch so it wont get lost strapped on your wrist.

                                But then again i am not a market for these anyways as i dont even have smartwatch and i still like wired headphones.

                                I have few pairs of wireless headphones at home use but they always get there battery empty when i need them so it's a bit of waste

                                  My J-Lab Go Air Pop's are about double the physical size of these Huawei buds, but get an average play time of around 11 hours between charges, and a total of 32 hours with the charging case. The are at the budget end of the TWS market, but are a brilliant all-rounder for the amount they cost... The 3-4 hours use of these Huawei buds is really not that good, no matter the convenience...

                                    Agreed with the reviewer comments on the earbuds. I like how small and compact is the earbuds which huawei should come out the earbud as a stand-alone accessories.

                                      Just wanna say that this is such a sophisticated tech. Love how the engineering of our devices are being improved as time goes by.

                                      I am not saying I am gonna buy this, but cramming all that tech in a slim profile is really amazing.

                                        blue, 27 Mar 2023Yes, combining two useless products is something only Huawe... moreI guess you dont like companies that actually try to innovate and improve the mobile phone/smartwatch industry. Stick to your overpriced apple watch and be happy instead of showing this level of jealousy over huawei lol
