The market for smart wearables is becoming really competitive this year. Apparently, this niche of devices is finally becoming mainstream achieving a huge amount of users across different pricing segments. We saw the arrival of multiple companies in this segment, while others are focusing on expanding their business to keep a good margin of users. Worth noting, that the market of wearables comprising smartwatches, smart bands, and even TWS hearables was one of the few segments to not suffer a great impact from the COVID-19 pandemic. Nubia recently released its Nubia Watch on Kickstarter and the campaign was quite successful, the company now announced that backers will be getting their units on October 8. They may be the first t get the wearable, but Nubia will also open general sales in the next month.
While we don’t have an exact date, we know that potential buyers will be able to purchase it until the end of October. The official price of the Nubia Watch is $400, however, those who backed it on Kickstarter will be getting it for as little as $200. Worth noting that this is for the customers outside of Chine. On its stronghold, the company has the Nubia Watch available for $220. While it seems to be a good price, the global variants certainly will be much costlier than that.
