 Fresh off their triumphant MPTC Tour of Luzon debut, the MPT DriveHub Cycling Team has traded the trail for the innovation stage as the team were seen at the HUAWEI Wearables Launch Event, held last May 22 at Bonifacio High Street Activity Center. The team reflected on their race experience with HUAWEI and got to take the newly-launched HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Series for a spin.

Victorious MPTC Tour of Luzon Ride with HUAWEI

 

Last April, the MPT DriveHub Cycling Team took on an exhilarating 8-day journey across 7 provinces for the MPTC Tour of Luzon. They won against 13 local and 4 international cycling teams. The race spanned over 1,000 kilometers across Luzon’s varied terrain, from steep mountain ascents and coastal sprints to endurance-testing stretches, under the scorching summer sun.

 

The MPT DriveHub team partnered with HUAWEI for the race and credited the tech brand’s wearable innovation for helping them maintain peak condition through grueling climbs and back-to-back stages. The team’s experience with HUAWEI wearables during the race reflects one of the many ways HUAWEI leverages its innovations, equipped with next-level sports and wellness features, to reshape athletic performances and empower healthier, more active lifestyles.

 

HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Series’ Eye-Catching Style, Fit for the Trail

 

At the launch event, the MPT DriveHub Cycling Team was among the first to experience the newly launched HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Series. The team got to explore the HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Series’ extensive features, including its comfortable and stylish fit. “I like it. It feels light and secure on the wrist, but still looks durable” said MPT DriveHub Cycling Team Manager and Sports Director Matt Aguilar. Aside from its lightweight wear, the HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Series’ vibrant AMOLED display with up to 3,000 nits peak brightness was another feature that the team took note of. “I think the bright display is helpful for when we wear it while riding during the day and night,” commented MPT DriveHub Cycling Team’s Mervin Corpuz, who was awarded Best Sprinter for MPTC Tour of Luzon.

Personalization was another highlight of the HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Series, as team members got to customize the smartwatch according to their own personal style. They chose from a wide variety of watch faces, like the workout-based watch face, kCaltracking face, and the activity rings watch face. The HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Series also offered an array of straps to choose from, including skin-friendly fluoroelastomer straps and breathable woven straps.

Pro-Level Sports and All-Round Health Features for Peak Performance

 

The MPT DriveHub Cycling Team was drawn to the pro-level sports features of the HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Series. “The sports features of the watch makes it very useful for team training and riding,” claimed Rustom Lim, MPT DriveHubCycling Team member. The watch supports over 100 sports modes, including indoor and outdoor cycling. While on Riding Mode, the team can use the HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Series as a stopwatch to time their performance. The HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Series now supports up to 40m free diving and is the first in its class to support water sports, such as open-water swimming and paddleboarding.

Equipped with a built-in barometer and the HUAWEI Sunflower Positioning System, the WATCH FIT 4 Series delivers highly accurate route tracking, and now supports offline maps for greater confidence during outdoor adventures. “Precise tracking lets us not worry too much about our route during races,” said Mervin Corpuz. Meanwhile, the TruSense System on the HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Pro can help the team monitor critical health metrics like SpO2 levels, respiratory rate, and heart rate variability (HRV), to stay on top of their health while training or during a race. 

 

The HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Series also featured wellness monitoring features, including comprehensive sleep services and the Emotional Wellbeing Assistant. “Recovery is an important part of training and performance. These features can help us know when to pull back and rest,” shared Rustom Lim.

 

All-Day Power and Smart Convenience for Multi-Day Races 

 

Not only can the HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Series power the MPT DriveHub Cycling Team’s performance, it can also be a reliable daily companion.  With up to 10 days of battery life and fast-charging capabilities, the HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Series proves to be especially valuable during multi-day races like the MPTC Tour of Luzon. Mervin Corpuz said, “The long battery life is great, it’s one less thing to worry about.”

Beyond a powerful battery life, the HUAWEI WATCH FIT 4 Series also comes with smart features to boost convenience. This includes Bluetooth-enabled calling, QR payment support with Watch Pay, voice memos, text-to-speech messages, and keyboard text input.
