(Telecompaper) Huawei unveiled its first wearable mobile device at the Mobile World Congress. The TalkBand B1 is a combination Bluetooth headset and "smartband" to track a user's movements and sync with a smartphone. The TalkBand allows users to track time spent on activities and progress with goals, including steps taken, miles covered and calories burned. They can also record how long and how well they sleep and set various alarms and nap functions to improve rest periods. The 26g band is 14.6mm thick and features a bendable curve design with a detachable earpiece. The Bluetooth 4.1 earpiece features a 1.4-inch flexible OLED display and NFC. It works with both Android (2.3+) and iOS (5.0+) devices. The TalkBand will launch first in China in March and reach Japan, the Middle East, Russia and Western Europe from Q2. Huawei also unveiled two new tablets at MWC, both supporting LTE Cat 4, dual-band Wi-Fi and the new AirSharing feature to share video and photos with TVs and other screens. The 7-inch MediaPad X1 will launch from March, and the 8-inch M1 will be available before the end of Q1. Huawei also introduced the new Ascend G6 mid-range smartphone in Barcelona. Available in a range of colours and 3G and 4G versions, the phone will be available from March.
