A new OnePlus smartwatch, likely the OnePlus Watch 3, has been spotted in India’s BIS and TUV Rheinland certification databases.
The wearable, spotted by 91mobiles, carries the model number OPWWE234 which is consistent with the naming convention of its predecessor, the OnePlus Watch 2 (model number OPWWE231).
While this doesn’t confirm the name definitively, it strongly suggests this is the upcoming OnePlus Watch 3. The BIS certification suggests it will likely be launched in India.
Moreover, the TUV Rheinland certification reveals that the OnePlus Watch 3 will feature a 550mAh battery. That’s the same capacity as the Watch 2 which is claimed to have up to 100 hours of battery life.
In May, a OnePlus smartwatch with a similar model number, OPWW234, also appeared in the 3C and CMIIT certifications. It’s likely a variant of the OnePlus Watch 3.
The 3C database shows that the smartwatch will be sold without a power adapter and will support 10W fast charging. The CMIIT certification suggests it will support connectivity options such as WCDMA, TD-LTE, LTE FDD, WLAN, and Bluetooth.
These certifications provide limited details about the smartwatch’s specifications, but other rumors suggest it might be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear W5 SoC or possibly the unreleased Snapdragon W5 Gen 2.
Regarding the launch, a report from last month hinted that the OnePlus Watch 3 would debut alongside the OnePlus Pad 2 and other OPPO devices like the Pad 3 and Enco X3 TWS earbuds in May. However, their launch has reportedly been delayed.
With the launch seemingly postponed, we continue to wait for official information on the OnePlus Watch 3. Although the BIS certification hints at an India release, it’s anyone’s guess when that might happen. We will keep you in the loop if we get any new details about the upcoming smartwatch.
