The HUAWEI WATCH GT Runner 2 is engineered to elevate running performance through precision tracking, intelligent insights, and a lightweight design tailored for speed and endurance. 

The smartwatch introduces Huawei’s most advanced and multi-system GNSS support, delivering highly accurate tracking even in complex environments such as dense urban areas or forest trails. It also introduces a revolutionary 3D floating antenna, integrating a metal middle frame, dielectric bezel, and titanium bezel. This synergy optimises energy efficiency, enhances signal reception, and ensures consistent performance even in challenging environments such as urban high-rises, tunnels, shaded trails, or overpasses.

This is further enhanced by the intelligent X-DR positioning algorithm, ensuring continuous route tracking and reliable data even when signal disruptions occur. 

A key highlight of the WATCH GT Runner 2 is its Intelligent Marathon Mode, developed in collaboration with dsm-firmenich Running Team, including Eliud Kipchoge, which delivers end-to-end support for runners from personalised training plans and pre-race preparation to real-time pacing guidance and detailed post-run performance analysis. For everyday runners, this translates into a more guided and personalised training experience. For example, a user preparing for a marathon can use the HUAWEI WATCH GT Runner 2 to track their endurance levels, monitor pacing in real-time, and receive adaptive recommendations based on their performance. During runs, the watch provides live feedback to help maintain optimal pace, while post-run highlights areas for improvement, allowing you to train smarter and progress safely over time. 

Designed to enable more precise, data-driven training, the smartwatch offers a comprehensive suite of professional metrics, including running power analysis, lactate threshold detection, and the Running Ability Index. These features, combined with highly accurate heart rate monitoring, provide deeper insights into performance and recovery. 

In addition to its performance capabilities, the HUAWEI WATCH GT Runner 2 is crafted from aerospace-grade titanium alloy and features an ultra-lightweight design at just 34.5 grams.

Exploring the growing appeal of compact devices in a category long defined by size and power

KUALA LUMPUR, 7 APRIL 2026 – The tablet category worldwide continues to be dominated by larger, productivity-driven devices, yet a different trend is beginning to emerge,  one that shifts attention towards compact devices and signals a subtle change in user preferences.

At the centre of this shift is the HUAWEI MatePad Mini, which has been gaining traction across both sales rankings and user feedback, not only for its performance but also for the category it represents, one that has historically remained niche and often overlooked. Across major e-commerce platforms such as Tmall and JD.com, the device has consistently ranked highly while also performing strongly on premium user rating lists, suggesting that its growing popularity is supported by both demand and consumer satisfaction.

What makes this particularly noteworthy is that it reflects more than just the success of a single product, instead pointing to a broader shift in how tablets are being positioned and perceived, especially in a market where innovation has long been defined by larger displays, more powerful specifications, and incremental upgrades.

In contrast, compact tablets have often been viewed as secondary devices, valued for their convenience but rarely considered capable of meeting everyday needs. This perception has also been shaped by longstanding limitations within the compact tablet segment, including widely discussed display behaviours observed in some compact tablets such as the Apple iPad mini 7, where scrolling inconsistencies have been noted by users and reviewers. As a result, smaller devices have often struggled to fully match the expectations set by their larger counterparts, reinforcing the idea that portability comes with compromise.

The MatePad Mini challenges this assumption by reframing compactness as a deliberate design choice, placing emphasis on portability while maintaining a level of capability that aligns more closely with real-world usage.

Weighing approximately 260g and measuring just over 5mm in thickness, the device is designed to be carried effortlessly and used comfortably throughout the day, bringing it closer to the experience of a smartphone and allowing it to integrate naturally into daily routines, from commuting and reading to quick tasks in between activities. At the same time, its ultra-thin and lightweight design does not come at the expense of durability, with structural reinforcements helping to address common concerns associated with slim devices.

This growing interest extends beyond online platforms, with retail environments reporting strong engagement and high conversion rates following hands-on experience, suggesting that the device’s value becomes more apparent through direct interaction.

Taken together, these developments point to a broader shift in how tablets are viewed, moving away from a singular focus on size and power towards a more balanced approach that prioritises usability and everyday convenience. The HUAWEI MatePad Mini is expected to arrive in Malaysia soon, offering further insight into how this shift may unfold across other markets.
