Innovation Meets Athletics: Huawei and Eliud Kipchoge Introduce Next-Generation Running Watch

On Jan. 27, 2026 in Shenzhen, Huawei Consumer Business Group unveiled a new professional running watch, marking its return five years after the 2021 HUAWEI WATCH GT Runner.
Eliud Kipchoge sought a globally influential partner with cutting-edge technology and a vast user network, positioning Huawei Consumer Business Group as the chosen collaborator.
Backed by Huawei's wearables scale—over 200 million wearable devices by June 2025—the watch bundles TruSense, the Sunflower positioning system, and a fatigue-assessment machine learning model tested with over 100 runners claiming 97% race-performance prediction accuracy.
Designed to satisfy elite needs while staying user-friendly, the device meets seasoned runners' demands and serves as a health-management tool for the general population, Alex Huang said.
By blending pro data with consumer access, the product may empower general running participants to embrace running while elite athletes gain precise training data and scientific load evaluations.
