Act fast! Huawei Watch 5 launch deal slashes £50 off the price and throws in a free strap
Right now, you can pick up the Huawei Watch 5 with £50 off its £399 launch price with the addition of a coupon on Huawei's UK site. And, as a nice little sweetener, the brand is also throwing in an extra free strap as part of the deal.
The Huawei Watch 5 is the Chinese brand's latest flagship with 46mm or 45mm sizings and respective 1.38 and 1.5-inch AMOLED displays. The casing comes in a choice of stainless steel or titanium and up to 4.5 days of battery life. The innovative X-TAP sensor on the side of the case delivers heart rate and SpO2 monitoring and the watch can be fitted with an eSIM for cellular connectivity. This deal knocks £50 off with the addition of a coupon until June 29, 2025
The Huawei Watch 5 could probably fool you into thinking it's not a smartwatch, but a regular analogue timepiece from the days of old. In an age when wearables are leaning increasingly into sporty and rugged aesthetics, the Chinese brand's latest device has a classic and premium design language.
That's largely thanks to the circular case coming in a choice of stainless steel or titanium and you can get it in either 46mm or 45mm sizing. The LTPO display is secured behind sapphire glass and boasts an impressive 80% screen-to-body ratio.
Huawei's ace-in-the-hole for the Watch 5 is the device's "X-Tap" sensor located on the side of the watch. Placing your finger on it delivers an SpO2 reading in under 10 seconds while the One-Tap Health Glance feature checks over 11 different health metrics (including heart rate variability and skin temperature) in under a minute.
Even if you don't plan to use it for sports, there's over 100 sport modes included on the watch and thanks to eSIM support, you can load up hiking or running maps without having to bring your phone with you.
This deal makes the device even cheaper for a limited time, and Huawei is also throwing in that aforementioned free strap and five free premium watch faces that would normally cost a total of £24.
The Huawei Watch 5 works with both Android and iOS but for those already using a Huawei phone, it's a nice upgrade that's going to be £50 cheaper until June 29 when this offer ends.

As Nvidia Gets Ready for New China H20 Shipments, How Should You Play NVDA Stock?
Nvidia (NVDA) shares remain in focus following a Reuters report that the company is warming up to resume its business in China. NVDA has placed an order with Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM) for some 300,000 of its H20 AI chips to meet the anticipated pent-up demand that's about to be unlocked in China. More News from Barchart Tesla Just Signed a Chip Supply Deal with Samsung. What Does That Mean for TSLA Stock? Here's What Happened the Last Time Novo Nordisk Stock Was This Oversold Dear Microsoft Stock Fans, Mark Your Calendars for Aug. 1 Stop Missing Market Moves: Get the FREE Barchart Brief – your midday dose of stock movers, trending sectors, and actionable trade ideas, delivered right to your inbox. Sign Up Now! Nvidia has already built an inventory of up to 700,000 chips following President Donald Trump's administration's reassurances that it will soon be able to serve its Chinese customers again. NVDA stock is currently up more than 100% versus its year-to-date low. Renewed Access to China Is a Huge Positive for Nvidia Stock The aforementioned order placed with TSMC suggests Nvidia is getting ready to start shipping its H20 chips to Beijing, a bullish signal for the company's stock price for several reasons. For starters, China accounts for roughly 13% of Nvidia's overall revenue and with rising demand from giants like Tencent (TCEHY) and Alibaba (BABA), the ability to serve this market again could unlock billions in sales. Additionally, renewed access to China will prevent further inventory write-downs and help NVDA defend its market share against emerging domestic competitors like Huawei. All in all, resuming business with its customers in Beijing may over time unlock significant further upside in Nvidia stock. How High Could NVDA Shares Fly in 2025? Despite explosive returns over the past four months, Truist analyst William Stein continues to see potential for further upside in NVDA shares in the second half of 2025. Earlier in July, Stein reiterated his 'Buy' rating on Nvidia stock, citing its full-stack advantage, not just in chips, but also in software and pre-trained models. He expects Nvidia will launch a client-side CPU by the end of this year, unlocking an estimated $35 billion in new total addressable market (TAM). Stein currently sees another 20% upside (roughly) in the AI stock from here. Nvidia Continues to Be the Street's Favorite AI Stock Nvidia's continued dominance in the AI market is keeping other Wall Street firms bullish on it as well. According to Barchart, the consensus rating on Nvidia shares remains at 'Strong Buy' with the mean target of about $182 indicating potential upside of another 4% from here.

India overtakes China as top smartphone exporter to US amid Apple shift
India has overtaken China as the leading exporter of smartphones to the U.S., as Apple continues to shift production in the face of the Trump administration's tariffs, according to new research released Monday. Canalys, a global tech market analyst firm, found that 44 percent of U.S. smartphones were manufactured in India in the second quarter of 2025, while just 25 percent were manufactured in China during the same three-month period. This represents a massive 240 percent jump for India, which produced only 13 percent of American smartphones between April and June of last year, when China commanded 61 percent of the market. 'India became the leading manufacturing hub for smartphones sold in the US for the very first time in Q2 2025, largely driven by Apple's accelerated supply chain shift to India amid an uncertain trade landscape between the US and China,' Sanyam Chaurasia, a principal analyst at Canalys, said in a press release. Apple produces the vast majority of its products in China but has increasingly sought to diversity its supply chains by moving some manufacturing to India and Vietnam. Vietnam also saw its share of U.S. smartphone production grow in the second quarter, overtaking China with 30 percent of the market. At the same time last year, Vietnam was responsible for 24 percent of U.S. smartphone production. Apple's shift toward India and Vietnam has been a double-edged sword. In the face of sky-high tariffs on Chinese goods earlier this year, the iPhone maker said the majority of its U.S. products would come from the two countries. The Trump administration raised tariffs on Chinese imports to 145 percent earlier this year, in response to which Beijing raised its import tax on American goods to 125 percent. The two sides ultimately agreed to lower these rates to 30 percent and 10 percent in May, a truce they agreed to extend for another 90 days on Tuesday. However, President Trump has also gone after Apple for its overseas manufacturing, threatening the company with a 25 percent tariff in May unless it moved more manufacturing to the U.S. Experts have warned this is largely infeasible given it would require massive investments and an extended period of time to move smartphone manufacturing to the U.S., while also resulting in higher smartphone prices. Trump never followed through on his threat to tariff Apple, but the iPhone maker is bracing for the administration's next move, as the president's 'reciprocal' tariffs are set to take effect Friday after a 90-day delay. Trump announced in early July that he had reached a trade deal with Vietnam, in which U.S. goods would enter the country duty-free while Vietnamese imports would face a 20 percent tariff. Goods shipped through Vietnam will face a higher 40 percent rate. The deal had not been finalized as of mid-July, although Trump said it was 'pretty well set,' according to Reuters. The administration has not yet reached an agreement with India.

Apple Manufacturing Academy opens in Detroit amid Trump pressure on U.S. production
Apple is trying to bring machine learning to Motor City. The smartphone giant opened its Apple Manufacturing Academy in Detroit on Tuesday to offer free workshops on artificial intelligence and advanced manufacturing to small and medium-sized businesses. Apple stands out as one of the companies most dependent on manufacturing as well as consumers in China. The new academy is a part of Apple's broader $500-billion U.S. investment commitment announced in February. The academy, which will be administered through a partnership with Michigan State University, will provide training on machine learning, automation and digital manufacturing technologies, with Apple experts helping to lead the workshops. 'We're thrilled to help even more businesses implement smart manufacturing so they can unlock amazing opportunities for their companies and our country,' Sabih Khan, Apple's chief operating officer, said in a news release. The company also will provide consulting services to businesses, available virtually and in person. Apple plans to add online courses this year that will teach skills such as project management and how to optimize manufacturing processes. The announcement comes as Apple faces pressure from President Trump and his supporters to bring more manufacturing jobs to the United States. Trump has called for Apple to move iPhone production stateside and is implementing tariffs that probably will raise the company's costs. On Tuesday, Trump threatened to impose tariffs as high as 25% on Indian imports if the countries cannot complete a trade agreement by Aug. 1. The U.S. also has a 30% baseline tariff on Chinese imports that expires August 12th, with Trump saying duties could rise again without a new deal. In May, Trump expressed frustration with Tim Cook after the Apple chief executive stated that the company was expanding Indian production to avoid tariffs on Chinese goods. Trump said he reminded Cook of Apple's $500-billion U.S. investment promise and told him: 'I don't want you building in India.' Apple aims to produce about a quarter of the world's iPhones in India over the next several years as the company works to reduce its heavy reliance on Chinese manufacturing. After building its supply chain in China for decades, Apple has been expanding to other markets including Vietnam and India. Cook has managed his relationship with Trump since the president's first term, building rapport through direct phone calls and meetings. His approach proved effective in 2019 when he lobbied Trump personally to exempt iPhones from China tariffs, arguing that the duties would raise prices and benefit competitors such as Samsung. The Trump administration later excluded iPhones and other electronics from the tariff plan. The Detroit facility builds on Apple's presence in the city, where it already operates an Apple Developer Academy in partnership with Michigan State University that trains about 200 students annually in software development. Apple currently produces very few products in the U.S. The Cupertino, Calif., company makes the Mac Pro in Austin, Texas, and has announced plans to build AI servers in Houston as well as purchase chips from a Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. factory in Arizona. Experts note that moving iPhone production to the U.S. would be prohibitively expensive.
