Huawei's Android Wear Watch might be quite expensive

Announced this month at MWC 2015, the Huawei Watch is the newest Android Wear-based circular smartwatch in town, and the first smartwatch ever to be made by Huawei.

While Huawei didn't say how much the device would cost, BGR has it that it will be very expensive. According to BGR, "the Huawei Watch price is $1,000." However, this might be the price for a luxury version of the device - one that uses real gold and silver. So the regular variant, which is made out of stainless steel (with a sapphire crystal lens), will most likely cost way less, though it may still be the most expensive Android Wear product yet.

Huawei expects to start selling its Watch in mid-2015, and plans to release it in more than 20 markets, including the US. The new wearable device looks a lot like a classic watch, and sports a 1.4-inch AMOLED display with 400 x 400 pixels (286 ppi). But the rest of its features aren't that different from what we're already seeing in other Android Wear smartwatches, including a quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor, 512 MB of RAM, Bluetooth 4.1, and a heart rate monitor sensor.
