Since this is a smartband expect that there will no much specs available. It's a tiny device, you know. Anyway, the Huawei TalkBand B1 supports wireless calling, has a 90 mAh battery touted to last you 6 days of usage, has a 1.4" flexible OLED display, removable earpiece, steps tracker, NFC, and sleeping pattern monitor feature. The TalkBand B1 is scheduled to be launched in Chine by March. Other countries will follow by the 2nd quarter like Japan, the Middle East, and in Western Europe.
