OnePlus is said to hold a launch event today to debut its first smartwatch featuring Google’s WearOS called the OnePlus Watch 2. The launch event is scheduled to kick off at 8:30 pm IST today (February 26), with the global launch happening simultaneously at 10 am EST.

Ahead of the launch, a new image has appeared revealing the Indian as well as global pricing of the OnePlus Watch 2. It appears that the image is from a press briefing, which reveals that the OnePlus Watch will carry a hefty price tag of ₹25,999 in India. In contrast, the smartwatch will cost $299.99 in the US, €329 in the EU, and £299 in the UK.

For comparison, the Galaxy Watch 6 costs $249.99 in the US and is currently available for €234 in EU countries like Germany. Compared to these markets, the OnePlus Watch 2 will undercut the Galaxy Watch 6 in India, which costs around ₹29,999.

While not much has been revealed about the OnePlus Watch 2 at this point, previous reports have mentioned that the device could feature a Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 processor under the hood. It will also likely have a 1.43-inch round AMOLED display. Last but not least, the device will debut with WearOS onboard, which is expected to be the latest WearOS 4 version. This will be a massive upgrade from the previous OnePlus Watch which featured an RTOS-based operating system, making it nothing more than a glorified fitness band.

With WearOS onboard, the OnePlus Watch 2 will be capable of accessing an extensive app ecosystem and offer features like Google Assistant, notifications, music streaming, and advanced health tracking. More details about the smartwatch will be revealed later in the day, so stay tuned for our coverage of the launch event.
