The OnePlus Watch Cyberpunk 2077 Limited Edition is identical to the original OnePlus Watch in terms of specifications. It only differs with regard to looks and price.

The special edition watch is themed after the popular video game – Cyberpunk 2077. This wearable was supposed to launch alongside the similarly themed OnePlus 8T. However, the release of the smartwatch got delayed for unknown reasons.

The watch comes with a yellow-accented bezel and strap. The latter even has the ‘Cyberpunk’ branding. Further, the wearable features Cyberpunk 2077-based UI, watch faces, and bootanimation. Weirdly, the bootanimation mentions ‘Android’. For those aware, the OnePlus Watch runs a customized RTOS (Real-time Operating System).

Most importantly, this special version smartwatch ships with a holder-cum-charger, which is designed after the hand of ‘Johnny Silverhand’, a popular character played by actor Keanu Reeves in the Cyberpunk 2077 video game.

Last but not least, the OnePlus Watch Cyberpunk 2077 Limited Edition is priced at ¥1,299 (202). For comparison, the regular OnePlus Watch and the OnePlus Watch Cobalt Limited Edition retail for ¥999 ($156) and ¥1,599 ($249) respectively.

The smartwatch is already up for pre-order and it will be available for purchase on June 1 at 12 AM (local time). As of now, there’s no official word on this wearable’s availability outside mainland China.

The OnePlus Watch is the brand’s first and the only smartwatch. It was announced alongside the OnePlus 9 series in late March. The wearable comes in two colors (Midnight Black, Moonlight Silver). But recently, the company launched a Cobalt Limited Edition in China. It is also expected to release a Harry Potter Limited Edition. But ahead of the latter’s announcement, OnePlus has officially revealed to launch the OnePlus Watch Cyberpunk 2077 Limited Edition in its home country on May 24.

We know the existence of the OnePlus Watch Cyberpunk 2077 Limited Edition since November 2020. In a different timeline, this version of the wearable would have debuted alongside the OnePlus 8T Cyberpunk 2077 Limited Edition. Because the watch was supposed to launch alongside the OnePlus 8T in October.

This special edition was thought to be canceled but it is not the case. OnePlus has confirmed to launch the OnePlus Watch Cyberpunk 2077 Limited Edition in China on May 24. The wearable will be available for pre-order starting at 8 PM (local time) on the announcement day itself.

This version of the OnePlus Watch will have Yellow accents and a ‘Cyberpunk’ branding on its strap. It will be also coming with the game-inspired watch faces, theme, and bootanimation. Apart from these, we expect it to come with the exact same set of features as the regular model.

Unfortunately, we are not sure whether this special variant will be made available in global markets.  That’s because the OnePlus 8T Cyberpubk 2077 Limited Edition was exclusive to China, however, limited quantities (only 10) were sold in Malaysia via lucky draw.

Chinese smartphone maker OnePlus has been long rumored to launch a smartwatch. According to Max Jambor, a well-known tipster on Twitter, the brand’s first wearable was supposed to debut in October but it has been now delayed indefinitely. Now, a few days later after his reveal, the straps of OnePlus Watch Cyberpunk 2077 Limited Edition leak in an image.

Earlier this week, OnePlus launched the OnePlus 8T Cyberpunk 2077 Limited Edition in its home country China. The newly leaked special version of the brand’s smartwatch could have debuted alongside the said smartphone if the company had not postponed the product.

Anyway, now we know that such a variant of OnePlus Watch exists, thanks to the picture of straps shared by Digital Chat Station on Weibo. The straps themselves don’t reveal anything about the wearable except for the fact that they will feature a black and yellow dual-tone finish along with OnePlus and Cyberpunk branding if and when they ever release.

Having said that, as per previous leaks and rumors, this smartwatch is said to sport a circular display but its software is a mystery. Since the company’s sister brand OPPO uses Wear OS in international markets, there’s a chance that the OnePlus Watch may run the same operating system.

However, it is worth noting that OnePlus’ another sister brand realme uses a forked version of FreeRT OS. Hence, OnePlus could also ship its smartwatch with similar software.
