Honor Watch GS 3 Smartwatch, Honor Tab V7 Pro Android Tablet Launched

Honor Watch GS 3 was unveiled at the company’s mega event on Thursday, August 12. The new smartwatch is the first in the series to carry an eight-channel photoplethysmography (PPG) sensor, which is claimed to offer more accurate heart rate monitoring. Alongside the Honor Watch GS 3, the company at its launch event brought the Honor Tab V7 Pro as its latest tablet. The Honor Tab V7 Pro comes with a 120Hz display and offers up to 256GB of onboard storage. The tablet is also the first device to come with a MediaTek Kompanio 1300T SoC that was announced late last month.

Honor Watch GS 3 specifications

The Honor Watch GS 3 comes as the successor to the Honor Watch GS Pro that was launched last year. The smartwatch has retained the circular design that was featured in the previous model. But, in a major change, the new watch carries an eight-channel PPG sensor that uses artificial intelligence (AI) backed algorithms to provide more accurate heart rate monitoring over traditional systems.

One of the key algorithms that the PPG sensor uses is a frequency tracking algorithm that helps track heart rate when a user is performing a strenuous exercise. Overall, the Honor Watch GS 3 is designed to use software and hardware collaboration for better heart rate tracking, the Chinese company said.

The Honor Watch GS 3 also carries two physical buttons and has a touchscreen. Detailed specifications of the smartwatch are yet to be revealed.
