Xiaomi, which is considered to be the Apple of China is working on its own smartwatch to take on the Apple Watch.
The Chinese company will be partnering with Huami a company known for developing wearable tech products for its upcoming smartwatch that will feature a large dial to make pulse wave velocity identification possible.
