According to AG4Tech, the OnePlus Watch 3, which features Wear OS 5 and a secondary OS, has an astounding 120-hour battery life, outlasting competitors such as the Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra.
This lifespan is attributed to a dual-chipset system that combines the Snapdragon W5 and BES2800 MCUs, intelligently rotating between high-power Wear OS 5 and low-power Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) to optimize energy consumption.
Celina Shi, OnePlus Europe’s CMO, emphasized the watch’s larger 631mAh Silicon NanoStack Battery, which is an increase from the OnePlus Watch 2’s 500mAh cell, resulting in improved energy density and longer power retention.
This enhancement could potentially improve sleep tracking, a significant priority, by providing more precise information about users’ sleep patterns.
In terms of style, the OnePlus Watch 3 features a titanium bezel instead of the stainless steel of its predecessor, as well as a long-lasting sapphire crystal face.
There’s also a new rotating digital crown that resembles the latest Apple Watch Series 10 design for easier navigation. The watch will be offered in two stunning colours: Obsidian Titanium (black) and Emerald Titanium (green).
While fitness features are unknown, the robust design suggests it may appeal to adventurers and fitness buffs, with OnePlus promising durability for any activity.
