The e-cigarette brand Barong showcased a new e-cigarette product with a display screen at the event, featuring a front design similar to the Apple Watch. The product supports type C charging and is promoted with the slogan "HEART RATE & BLOOD OXYGEN FUNCTION." This kind of functionality is not commonly seen in traditional e-cigarette products, but is typically found in health or fitness tracking devices like the Apple Watch.

 

According to their official website, the product has not been officially released yet, and specific information about its parameters is still unknown. However, based on the distribution of Barong products, it seems that their main focus is still on the e-liquid business.
