    Chinese white goods giant Haier Group showcased its new smartwatch at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, marking another milestone in the firm's expansion into the consumer products sector in Europe.

    The Haier Watch, which will go on sale in the second half of 2016, is compatible with the Haier smartphone so users can read messages on their watches, monitor their health and control their phone cameras.

    While the smartwatch market is already crowded with products from a number of well-established players such as Fitbit Inc, Apple Inc and Samsung Electronics Co Ltd, Haier is stressing that its products would be more affordable.

    Pierre-Andre Denis, consumer electronics marketing and outsourcing manager for Haier Europe, said that the gradual rollout of consumer products in Europe is important for the company's brand-building strategy.

    Initially, Haier aims to increase the sales of its smartwatches and smartphones so that later it can launch total home solutions, meaning it can help consumers connect their home appliances like refrigerators and televisions with wearables.

    "Although our products are not connected with each other currently, we'd like to connect them in the future once our products are widely used, so we are now looking to build up market share," Denis said.

    The company employs about 500 people in Europe, where Haier appliances have been sold for years.

    The Qingdao, Shandong-based company ventured into the consumer and wearables products field three years ago with the launch of its smartphones.

    Its smartphones are available in a number of European nations, including Italy, France, Germany and Luxembourg.

    Denis said Haier's smartphones and smartwatches are similar to products created by other brands, but have more competitive prices.

    Also targeting overseas markets was ZTE Corp, a Shenzhen, Guangdong-based telecom equipment maker.

    The company unveiled a portable smart projector at the MWC, taking on Japanese makers such as Seiko Epson Corp and Hitachi Ltd.

    The device provides services such as voice conference and projection. When connected to a camera, the device also supports multi-party video communication via Skype.

    "Innovation represents the key value for Chinese technology companies which are eager to compete in the global market," said Zeng Xuezhong, executive vice-president of ZTE and CEO of ZTE Mobile Devices.

    "ZTE has two core competitiveness in both domestic and overseas market - innovation and localization," Zeng said.

    "In the eyes of our foreign consumers, ZTE stands for innovation rather than copycat or duplicate," he said.
