According to media reports, Huawei will hold a new product launch event for the nova14 series and HarmonyOS computers on May 19, 2025. According to the agenda announced in the new product launch poster, in addition to the first HarmonyOS computer and nova14 series, multiple new products such as HarmonyOS Smart Home, smart glasses, new Watch 5, and smart screen will also be released on the same stage, highlighting the competition of the IoT ecosystem for the entrance to smart homes.
Based on the precedent of Huawei MateX5 foldable screen equipped with satellite communication, smart glasses may integrate scenario based functions such as AR navigation and health monitoring, while HarmonyOS Smart Home needs to break through the protocol barriers of traditional home appliance interconnection and achieve seamless collaboration across brand devices. This strategy of "software hardware collaboration+ecological expansion" may rewrite the competitive rules of the smart home industry.
Driven by the triple factors of technological innovation, scene adaptation, and market demand, the global smart glasses market will ship 1.568 million pairs in 2024, a year-on-year increase of 119%; The shipment volume of smart glasses in the Chinese market was 167000 pairs, a year-on-year increase of 44.0%.
According to the IDC China Wearable Device Market Quarterly Tracking Report, Huawei's smart glasses series has been ranked first in China's audio glasses market in terms of shipment volume for four consecutive years. With the continuous increase of AI glasses, companies in the smart glasses industry chain will benefit.
