After the successful launch of the OnePlus 13 and 13R earlier this year, OnePlus has officially announced the arrival of the highly anticipated OnePlus Watch 3. This new smartwatch promises to bring significant upgrades in terms of design, functionality, and battery performance, setting a new standard in the smartwatch market.

According to a report by TechRadar, the OnePlus Watch 3 is equipped with Wear OS 5 and a secondary OS, delivering an impressive battery life of up to 120 hours. This extended battery performance sets it apart from competitors like the Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra.
The key to this exceptional battery life lies in the innovative dual-chipset system that combines the Snapdragon W5 and BES2800 MCU. By intelligently switching between the high-power Wear OS 5 and the low-power Real-Time Operating System (RTOS), the OnePlus Watch 3 optimizes energy consumption for prolonged usage.
Celina Shi, the CMO of OnePlus Europe, emphasized the use of a larger 631mAh Silicon NanoStack Battery in the OnePlus Watch 3, a significant upgrade from the previous model’s 500mAh cell. This enhancement not only ensures higher energy density but also enables longer power retention, potentially improving the accuracy of sleep tracking features.
In terms of design, the OnePlus Watch 3 introduces a titanium bezel to replace the stainless steel of its predecessor, along with a durable sapphire crystal face. The addition of a new rotating digital crown, reminiscent of the latest Apple Watch Series 10, enhances the overall user experience for smoother navigation. Available in two stylish colors, Obsidian Titanium (black) and Emerald Titanium (green), the OnePlus Watch 3 is set to make a fashion statement.
While specific details about fitness features are still under wraps, the robust build of the OnePlus Watch 3 suggests that it will cater to adventure enthusiasts and fitness fanatics alike. OnePlus promises durability and reliability for any activity, making it a versatile companion for all lifestyles.
With its groundbreaking features and sleek design, the OnePlus Watch 3 is poised to become a top contender in the smartwatch market. Stay tuned for more updates as we witness the evolution of wearable technology with the OnePlus Watch 3.
