HUAWEI BREAKS THE LIMITS OF SMARTWATCH ENDURANCE WITH UP TO 21-DAY BATTERY LIFE ON THE ALL-NEW WATCH GT 6 SERIES, NOW AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER
HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 Series raises the bar in performance while maintaining the same price point as its predecessor

Following its global debut in Paris, HUAWEI today announces the launch of the HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 Series in Malaysia. Built on the “Ride the Wind” ethos, the HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 Pro and HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 combine pro-level sports performance, comprehensive health management, premium materials, and long-lasting battery life to set a new benchmark for smartwatches.

Cutting-edge tech delivers long battery life & precise positioning

The HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 Series comes with an advanced high-silicon stacked special-shaped battery, delivering a staggering 65% higher capacity than the previous model. With this upgrade, the HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 Pro and GT 6 46 mm editions offer up to 21 days of battery life in light usage, and the stylish GT 6 41 mm edition lasts up to 14 days in typical usage. Whether you're wearing it every day or taking it on extended trips, you can count on reliable performance without worrying about running out of power.

The HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 Series also features an AMOLED screen display with 3000 nits peak brightness for high visibility even under Malaysia’s harsh sunlight. It comes with an upgraded Sunflower positioning system, boosting positioning accuracy by 20% compared with its predecessor. No matter if you're navigating urban streets or exploring remote areas, this enhancement guarantees precise tracking of your workout routes and distance data. The watch includes an integrated running coach through its Running Form Analysis feature, offering professional guidance to runners of all levels to boost performance and minimize injury risks. Detailed data on ground contact time, vertical oscillation, and balance are provided using an IMU sensor, empowering users to analyse their form, prevent injuries and run more efficiently.

Unmatched aesthetics

The HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 Pro introduces a sleek raised timing bezel and delivers a screen that is 5.5% larger than its predecessor for a more immersive and vibrant experience. Crafted with premium materials like sapphire glass, an aviation-grade titanium alloy body, and a nanocrystal ceramic rear cover, it ensures durability and exudes sophistication. The watch comes with three strap options—brown composite woven, titanium, and durable black fluoroelastomer strap—offering versatility for business, travel, or casual sports while ensuring a premium appearance and high quality.

The HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 comes in two editions to suit different tastes. The 46 mm edition comes in green composite woven, grey composite leather and black fluoroelastomer strap. Meanwhile, the 41 mm edition offers three fresh colours in purple fluoroelastomer, white composite leather and brown composite woven strap; featuring innovative pivoting loop lugs that ensure a snugger and more comfortable fit on your wrist, making it a perfect companion for a variety of looks and occasions.

Elevate your fitness with advanced workout modes

The HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 Series offers over 100 sports modes, and is the first smartwatch to offer cycling virtual power, providing cyclists with the most precise and scientifically grounded way to measure their riding intensity. This innovative capability stems from extensive research, including thousands of cycling simulations and advanced wind resistance modeling carried out in a state-of-the-art wind tunnel lab in China. Thanks to this rigorous testing, the watch delivers highly accurate calculations of cycling virtual power, making it an essential tool for serious cycling enthusiasts. You can now check your cycling power directly on your wrist in real-time, with precision nearly matching that of a dedicated power meter. This allows you to fine-tune your workout intensity and adapt your training plan with greater accuracy. 

Safety is reinforced with enhanced fall detection: when a high-impact incident is detected, the watch triggers a countdown and can automatically send SOS alerts to emergency contacts or local services. Meanwhile, the team-up feature enables group connections for cyclists sharing real-time locations, data, and alerts to boost safety and coordination in team outings. Altitude Monitoring 2.0 is effective at 2500m high and automatically tracks SpO2, heart rate, pressure, and altitude shifts in elevated areas, delivering alerts for risks.

The HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 Pro is engineered for those who push their limits outdoors. It brings professional-grade support for trail running, golf and freediving up to 40 metres. Golfers can benefit from over 17,000 zoomable global golf course maps available with upgraded golf vector maps where icons are more pronounced for an enhanced golf experience. Under trail running mode, Huawei introduces altitude trend for course insight, with new distance estimation & correction pace. Last but not least, the HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 Pro comes with EN13319 professional diving-level water resistance that supports PADI/SSI/AIDA certifications up to the highest levels. 

Enhanced health management with greater nuance and intuition

Health management is equally advanced. Powered by Huawei’s TruSense system, the HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 Series offers an upgraded 12-state multi-dimensional emotional wellbeing detection, continuous sleep tracking with HRV analysis, and pro-grade cardiovascular monitoring. The Pro model comes with an additional ECG function, which allows for ECG readings anytime and anywhere.

Smart Features That Actually Make Life Easier

The HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 Series also brings smart lifestyle conveniences tailored for Malaysians. Users can now enjoy the ease of Touch ’n Go eWallet QR payments directly from their wrist, allowing seamless transactions without needing to reach for their phone or wallet.

In addition, the Waktu Solat Malaysia app is supported on the WATCH GT 6 Series, providing accurate prayer time notifications, verses for each prayer, and Qiblat direction guidance, ensuring users stay connected to their spiritual practices throughout the day.

Frequent travellers would also greatly benefit from the MyBorderPass app, which is now supported on the HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 Series, offering a more seamless experience when undergoing immigration clearance.

Pricing and Free Gifts

The HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 Series officially launches in Malaysia, starting from RM999 — matching the price of its predecessor, the GT 5, while delivering upgraded performance, smarter features, and unmatched value. Both the HUAWEI WATCH GT 6 Pro and GT 6 are available for pre-order at the HUAWEI Official Website, HUAWEI Official Store on Shopee, HUAWEI Flagship Store on Lazada, and the HUAWEI Official TikTok Shop, with free gifts worth up to RM446, including HUAWEI FreeBuds 6i and three months of HUAWEI Health+ membership.

Tohtonku Unveils SilkPro: A New Era of Skincare for Scalp, exclusively at Watsons Malaysia

Tohtonku today proudly launched SilkPro, its latest innovation that brings the science of skincare to haircare, redefining how Malaysians care for their scalp and hair.

The launch event, held at Grotto, Confetti KL, was graced by distinguished guests, media representatives, and partners from Watsons Malaysia, including Mr. Danny Hoh, Chief Operating Officer of Watsons Malaysia. The afternoon featured an inspiring keynote by Ms. Winnie Pok, General Manager (Commercial), Tohtonku Sdn Bhd, followed by a lively panel discussion with Chrystina Ng, Radio Announcer, and Carrie Lee, Founder of Miss Cosmo World Malaysia.

Skincare Meets Haircare: The Concept of Skinification

With growing consumer awareness that many hair issues originate from the scalp, SilkPro was born from the idea of “Skincare for Scalp”. The brand taps into the rising skinification trend, where consumers extend the same level of care they give their skin to their scalp.

“Just as glowing skin begins with a healthy foundation, beautiful hair begins with a healthy scalp. If serums, moisturisers, and actives can transform skin, why not bring that same science and care to the scalp? SilkPro is the answer to that question,” shared Ms. Winnie Pok, General Manager (Commercial) of Tohtonku.

Powered by Skincare Actives & Micellar Technology

SilkPro shampoos are formulated with skincare-grade active ingredients such as Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid, Salicylic Acid, and Amino Acids. Each variant targets specific scalp concerns - from hair fall prevention and dandruff control to hydration and damage repair.

Paired with Micellar Technology, SilkPro delivers a deep yet gentle cleanse by lifting away impurities and pollutants without stripping natural oils. This makes the range suitable for daily use, supporting both scalp health and long-term hair vitality.

Master Personalization - For Every You, In Every Lifestyle

SilkPro was designed with real people in mind:

1. The busy professional managing damaged, styled hair.
2. The new mom concerned about postpartum hair fall.
3. The teen struggling with visible flakes.
4. The self-care enthusiast seeking a luxurious, skin-like ritual for her hair.

“Every formula is crafted to meet these very real needs, because personalization is the key to building trust and loyalty. That’s why we say: Healthy Scalp, Confident You.”

Exclusively at Watsons Malaysia

SilkPro will be available exclusively at Watsons Malaysia, across its 311 outlets nationwide. With premium, eye-level display placement, consumers can easily discover the brand’s innovative offerings in-store.

Expressing gratitude, Ms. Winnie Pok noted: “Watsons has been a long-standing partner who shares our vision of bringing innovative, science-backed solutions closer to consumers. With their support, we are setting a new standard in haircare, making scalp wellness an integral part of every beauty routine.”
