After having the chance to spend some time with it, the answer to the above question is a solid yes. Wearables is something Huawei isn’t largely known for, at least not yet especially from a local point of view. This is something the company is aiming to put right. Just a few weeks ago they launched a range of smart wearables locally for the first time.

The eight devices, each of which are compatible with all operating systems, are stylish yet affordable, and designed to suit all kinds of South Africans – from the fitness obsessed to the casual exerciser. One of these, as mentioned, is the nifty Band 2 Pro device which I have been fortunate enough to spend some time with.

It not only has the usual heart rate tracking and step tracking, but also comes equipped with nifty features like GPS, waterproofing, and the option for continuous heart rate tracking to measure VO2 max. By the way, continuous tracking is almost unheard of for a tracker at that price point so the Band 2 Pro comes out winning in that sense.

How do you know that Huawei is going to announce something tomorrow
 
"The eight devices, each of which are compatible with all operating systems ..'

Is the new Huawei GT watch not running on it's own OS, meaning it's only compatible with the Huawei health app?

Yes it uses the Huawei Health app, and I'm fairly sure you can install that on other devices? (Not that I've tried, but I'd be surprised if you can't)

"Huawei Health provides professional sports guidance for your sport（Phones with Android 4.4 and above are supported, but the RAM need to be greater than 2G）. "

Right on point you are and yes in addition to Huawei devices, the app is also available on other Android devices as well as iOS.
