The window for pre-reservations has been wide opened on a microsite which is created for the smartwatch. The jaw-dropping thing was that all of the limited number of 1500 passes were sold out by 13:07 IST on February 21, Gadget360 reported.
OnePlus Watch 2 design
The post on OnePlus website mentioned that the smartwatch features a stainless-steel chassis and sapphire crystal glass, adding that it will offer an extended battery endurance of up to 100 hours in “full Smart Mode,” which is more than what's offered on Apple Watch Series 9, and which delivers a battery lifespan of two and a half days while on its low-power mode.
Some focus was also observed on the ecosystem building as the post also underscored company's recently launched products such as the foldable OnePlus Open, OnePlus Buds Pro 2, and OnePlus Tab. However, no ecosystem features were reflected in the post.
“Meticulous health monitoring” was also seen, hinting at the inclusion of some big health tracking upgrades.
OnePlus Watch 2 specifications
Previous leaks have revealed additional important details about the upcoming smartwatch. The OnePlus Watch 2 may come with a 1.43-inch AMOLED display and be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 chipset. It is anticipated to operate on Wear OS, although it is unclear whether it will be Wear OS 3 or Wear OS 4.
A landing page has been established on Amazon, indicating the same launch date and time, suggesting that it could be released in India simultaneously with its global launch.
OnePlus Watch 2 colour options
The available colour options for the wearable, as displayed on the official website, are two: Black Steel and Radiant Steel.
