The main market for wearable devices was China, where Huawei shipped about 6 million units and increased its market share to 38.4%.

Demand for Huawei smart bracelets and watches was high around the world – the main growth factor was the popularity of the Watch Fit 3 model. The company managed to increase market share in Central and Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Latin America.
