Huawei Malaysia also debuted their Huawei Watch during the Huawei Fashion Night Out on Friday, 14 August 2015, with a soiree that saw popular Malaysian actress-cum-fashion designer, Nur Fazura, showcase her latest collection.
 

 
Speaking on the devices on showcase at the event, Gary Xu, Country Director, Consumer Business Group, Huawei Technologies Malaysia said, “The Huawei P8 takes beauty to the next level, striking a flawless balance of artistry and creativity. With a striking craftsmanship and new revolutionary light painting modes, the Huawei P8 provides consumers with inspiration for creativity. Clearly, it embodies the spirit of KL Fashion Week.”
“At the same time, the Huawei Watch is one of our most recent contributions to a world where fashion and technology have begun to collide more often. And it is one that we are very proud of!  The Huawei Watch received some rave reviews from style-conscious audiences across the world and we are very proud to showcase it to the fashion community in Malaysia today,” added Gary.
