The 2015 Mobile World Congress (MWC 2015) will kick off in Barcelona, ​​Spain on March 2, local time. As one of the largest and most influential exhibitions in the global mobile field, almost all mobile industry manufacturers will participate in the MWC. In addition to mobile phones, wearable devices have also attracted much attention at the MWC in recent years. So what new wearable products will be worth looking forward to at this year's MWC?

Samsung Orbis Smartwatch

Samsung has held a new product launch event before the opening of MWC 2015, at which it released its latest flagship models Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge. However, there are reports that Samsung's new smart watch Orbis will also be unveiled during MWC. This watch will use Samsung's own Tizen operating system instead of Android Wear. At the same time, this product will have a crown button design like an ordinary watch, and the dial frame can be rotated.

In addition, Samsung may also release a series of applications and games for Gear VR virtual reality headsets during this MWC.

HTC Grip Smart Bracelet

Like Samsung, HTC also held a new product launch conference with the theme of "Utopia in progress" in Barcelona on March 1, local time. At the conference, HTC released the new HTC One M9 flagship, HTC Grip smart bracelet and HTC VIVE head-mounted display. Among them, the Grip smart bracelet was jointly launched by HTC and UNDER ARM OUR, the world's top functional sports brand, mainly for users who like sports. In addition to the sports monitoring of ordinary smart bracelets, it also has a built-in GPS module, which allows users to easily record complete sports data during exercise. At the same time, the Grip bracelet also has a friend interaction function, which allows users to increase entertainment and interactivity during boring exercise.

The HTC VIVE head-mounted display was launched by HTC and gaming company VALVE. Users can wear this device to play games and watch videos. Considering that VALVE is a well-known gaming company, it may launch customized content for this product in the future.

Sony SmartEyeglass and SW3 smartwatch

We have not yet received any news about Sony 's new wearable devices at this year's MWC, but we know that Sony may release Xperia smartphones and tablets during the conference. Nevertheless, we still hope to see the latest Sony wearable products, such as the stainless steel smartwatch SmartWatch 3 and augmented reality smart glasses SmartEyeglass.

LG G Watch Urbane and Urbane LTE

Before the MWC conference, LG has announced the details and photos of its latest smartwatches, G Watch Urbane and Urbane LTE. The latter is not just the LTE version of the former, but also has additional physical buttons, a larger battery and a dedicated operating system. LG will also strongly recommend these two smartwatch products during this MWC.

Huawei TalkBand B2 smart bracelet and N1 smart headset

Chinese mobile phone manufacturer Huawei also held a new product launch conference before the opening of MWC, at which it released the TalkBand B2 smart bracelet and N1 smart headset. The B2 is an upgraded product of the B1 smart bracelet released last year.

Huawei said that the B2 can be used continuously for 5 days on a single charge, and the standby time can reach 12 days. If the user uses it as a Bluetooth headset, the continuous talk time is 7 hours.

The N1 smart earphones are a unique wearable product. They are actually earphones with activity tracking functions. The built-in accelerometer allows it to track steps. The N1 is IP54 rated, so it has basic dust and water resistance, and 4GB of storage space for music storage. The N1 has a battery capacity of 67mAh, which can run continuously for 3 days or provide about 5 hours of talk time.

Pebble Time Smartwatch

Pebble's new Time smartwatch has recently achieved great success on the crowdfunding platform Kickstarter, with its financing exceeding $10 million in just two days. As a smartwatch product with a color e-paper screen, we may see this more interesting product at this MWC.
