Soon, we’re expecting the unveiling of the new smartwatch, the OnePlus Watch 3. One of the big new features could be a rotating crown, which was missing in the previous model.
The OnePlus Watch 2 was a significant upgrade over its predecessor, mainly because OnePlus finally delivered what people wanted: a full-fledged smartwatch running Wear OS with awesome battery life. According to a leak from SmartPrix, the OnePlus Watch 3 will build on this formula.
According to available information, the design will remain mainly unchanged, as shown in several rendered images of the device prototype. The biggest change in the OnePlus Watch 3 is the addition of a rotating digital crown. The crown on the OnePlus Watch 2 rotated but didn’t perform any functions in the interface, which was a disappointment for some users. It’s expected that this flaw has been fixed in the new generation.
Other changes in the OnePlus Watch 3, reportedly, include an improved heart rate sensor with ECG support and possibly LTE support.
It’s also reported that the new version will include Wear OS 5. The specs are almost identical: Snapdragon W5 Gen 1, 2 GB of RAM, and 32 GB of internal storage, along with the option to use RTOS alongside Wear OS to improve battery life. Additionally, a “500+ mAh” battery capacity is mentioned, while previous leaks claim it could be significantly larger.
The OnePlus Watch 3 is reported to be released in the first quarter of 2025, but the exact timing is unknown. The next big launch is scheduled for January 7 for the OnePlus 13 series, but there are no hints that the smartwatch will accompany these new smartphones.
