Huawei has unveiled the Sense G1, its first continuous glucose monitor (CGM), in China. The sensor attaches to the upper arm and tracks glucose day and night for up to 16 days.
It can send alerts when readings go outside the target range, and users can check their glucose levels on a compatible phone or smartwatch. How It Works The small, round sensor resembles an Apple AirTag.
According to Mydrivers , it uses a flexible probe beneath the skin, an enzyme called glucose oxidase, and electrodes to measure glucose in the fluid around cells.
This gives users a continuous record of glucose changes without a finger prick for each reading. Huawei says each sensor is for one person and requires no manual calibration. How Accurate Is It?
A tipster cited by Mydrivers put the Sense G1’s mean absolute relative difference (MARD) below 10%. MARD measures how closely a sensor’s readings match reference measurements. A lower figure means closer agreement.
The tipster also said readings could lag behind changes in blood glucose by about 5 to 15 minutes. Huawei has yet to confirm either figure.
China Clears the Sensor China’s National Medical Products Administration registered the Sense G1 as a Class III medical device, the country’s highest risk category. The category also covers products such as cardiac stents and artificial joints.
It is the first Class III registration for Huawei’s consumer hardware business, according to IT Home .
Huawei consumer business CTO Li Xiaolong told followers that the Sense G1 had the longest development cycle of any product his team had worked on. He first wore a test unit in December 2023, about 35 months before the unveiling.
Huawei introduced its TruSense health monitoring system in 2024. Some of its smartwatches can assess diabetes risk, while the Sense G1 provides continuous glucose readings through a dedicated arm sensor.
Price and Release Date Huawei has yet to announce a price or sale date.
The company could share more at a late-November event where it may also introduce the Mate X8 foldable phone and the MateBook Fold S, a follow-up to the MateBook Fold Ultimate Design.
