Huawei has just refreshed its smart watch offerings with the Huawei Watch 3 series – the Watch 3 and the Watch 3 Pro.

The Huawei Watch 3 series features a 1.43-inch AMOLED display with a 466×466 resolution and 326 ppi. In addition to the upgrade in the face itself, they feature a 3D rotating crown on the right side of the watch for navigation. Rotating the crown allows you to switch between menus, while pressing it allows you to enter or exit a menu.

These are also the first smart watches that are built with the company’s OS, HarmonyOS.

It also has AppGallery meaning you can download apps directly to the watch, without the need of a smartphone. The company did not mention the chipset but it is confirmed to have 2GB RAM and 16GB storage on board.
