Oppo Watch 3 series is finally here as scheduled. The company took wraps off its latest wearable lineup in China today. The series consists of two models, namely Oppo Watch 3 and Oppo Watch 3 Pro.

Oppo Watch 3 Series Specifications

The Oppo Watch 3 arrives with a square dial, just like its predecessors. They feature an aluminum alloy frame and fiberglass casing. The Watch 3 has a 1.75-inch AMOLED screen with a resolution of 430 x 372 pixels. Whereas, the Watch 3 sports a larger 1.91-inch LTPO curved OLED display with a resolution of 496 x 378 pixels. Interestingly, both models come with the same 326 PPI but only the Pro version flaunts a crown.

Talking about common things, the duo is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon W5 chipset paired with 1GB RAM and 32GB storage. They also house Oppo’s own Apollo 4 Plus chip. They dual-boot ColorOS Watch based on Wear OS and RTOS.

In typical usage (mix of Wear OS and RTOS modes), the Pro variant (550mAh battery) is rated to last for up to 5 days, while the vanilla (400mAh battery) model is said to offer an endurance of up to 4 days. With LTE, the battery life drops by a day for both, and with heavy usage, it further drops by 1.5 days. In RTOS-only mode, they can last for up to 15 days and 14 days, respectively.

Based on this information, the Oppo Watch 3 series seems to be the best Wear OS smartwatch for battery life to date. It is probably due to the new Snapdragon W5 chip, which is making its global debut on these wearables.

Further, both variants offer LTE connectivity, Bluetooth 5.0, GNSS, and NFC (payments, passes, car keys). They are 5ATM water resistant and feature all the essential sensors, like accelerometer, gyroscope, compass, optical heart rate sensor, SpO2 sensor, ambient light sensor, and altimeter. The Pro variant also comes with an ECG sensor.

Last but not least, the Oppo Watch 3 series can be paired with both Android and iOS.

Ahead of its launch next month, it has been revealed that the Oppo Watch 3 will be the first smartwatch with the Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 chip. The Snapdragon W5 and W5+ wearable chips were announced recently. Oppo’s executive, Franco Li is credited to have disclosed that the vanilla version of the chipset will be used on the OPPO Watch 3.

The Watch 3 series will include more than one model and we expect at least one of the models to have the new Snapdragon wearable chip. Qualcomm claims that the new chipsets come with improved performance and extended battery life. These claims can truly be tested when the components are present in actual products. It is however expected that the chipmaker’s claims are patently correct. A previous rumor has stated that the Watch 3 series will have three models. All three models will have a high screen-to-body ratio and square displays. The color options for the models were also rumored to be silver, dark gray, black, and light gold.

Mobvoi’s TicWatch flagships will be the first models to be powered by the Snapdragon W5+ Gen 1 chipset. The next TicWatch is expected to be released this fall and it is rumored to be named the TicWatch 4 Pro. Mobvoi’s CEO provided the information that the TicWatch model will debut the W5+ wearable chip.

It is not clear at this time whether the Oppo Watch 3 will be released globally. A global release will certainly add to the options available to consumers across the globe. More details about the Watch 3 will trickle in as we inch closer to its launch.
