huawei_watch_silver_side Google listed Huawei's new Android Wear smartwatch on the Google Store a few weeks back. Up until this point, no one realized that the company mistakenly listed the watch with 4GB of RAM.

Now 4GB of RAM on a smartphone is just becoming the norm, but on a smartwatch? The majority, if not all Android Wear smartwatches have 512MB of RAM installed. But according to the Huawei Watch's listing on the Google Store, this is not the case. Now obviously it's an error because everywhere else the Huawei Watch is listed with 512MB, and 4GB or RAM on a smartwatch is kind of overkill. I'm sure once Google discovers the mistake, it will provide a fix.

The listing shows 512MB of RAM, 4GB of RAM. One could infer that the company meant 4GB of on-board storage space because that's what most smartwatches have these days. If you happen to be interested in purchasing the Huawei Watch, it will cost you $399 at the Google Store.
