OPPO Watch 3 Blue color version goes on sale in China; priced at 1,499 yuan ($210)

Jeet — Fri, 16 Jun 2023 02:58:47 +0000

Last year, OPPO launched a new generation of its smartwatch — OPPO Watch 3. A few weeks back, the company announced a new Blue color option for the wearable device, along with two new strap options.

Today, the Blue-colored OPPO Watch 3 officially goes on sale in the Chinese market for the price of 1,499 yuan which roughly converts to $210.

The company describes the new addition to the wearable lineup as something designed for summer and adds that it brings “a touch of coolness to the sweltering summer.”

As for the specifications, the OPPO Watch 3 features a 1.75-inch AMOLED screen with a 430 x 372 pixels screen resolution and 326 PPI pixel density. Under the hood, it is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon W5 chipset paired with 1GB RAM and 32GB storage.

There’s also the company’s in-house developed Apollo 4 Plus chip. Coming to the software, the smartwatch dual-boots ColorOS Watch based on Wear OS and RTOS. It offers LTE connectivity, Bluetooth 5.0, GNSS, and NFC, along with sensors like an accelerometer, gyroscope, compass, optical heart rate sensor, SpO2 sensor, ambient light sensor, and altimeter.

The device is powered by a 400mAh battery which the company claims can offer up to four days of usage on a single charge, but using LTE mode reduces the battery life by a day. However, in the RTOS mode, the smartwatch is claimed to last for up to 14 days on a single charge.

Alongside the Oppo Reno 10 series, the brand also unveiled several other products. One of them is Oppo Enco R2, while the others are new variants of existing devices.

The brand announced new memory configurations for two of its tablets, namely Oppo Pad 2 and Oppo Pad Air. It also took wraps off a new color for Oppo Watch 3 and two new straps.

Oppo’s entry-level tablet Oppo Pad Air now comes in an 8GB + 256GB version priced at ¥1799. This memory variant can be availed in Star Silver and Fog Gray color options.

This is the highest memory variant for the tablet. Apart from this, it arrives in 4GB + 128GB and 6GB + 128GB versions priced at ¥1,499 and ¥1,699, respectively.

Finally, the Oppo Watch 3 can be now availed in blue color priced at ¥1,599. Oppo also released a green-colored leather strap and a popsicle color-inspired fabric strap priced at ¥99 and ¥69, respectively.

The watch straps are up for sale already, while the watch and tablets are available for pre-order. The watch will only go on sale only from June 16 but the tablets will be available for purchase starting June 1.

Oppo Watch 3 Could Take on Galaxy Watch 5 in Global Markets

Sudarshan Ravichandran — Mon, 02 Jan 2023 12:31:41 +0000

The Oppo Watch 3 series made its debut in China in August. It has been more than four months, however, the brand is yet to make an official announcement regarding the availability of its latest wearables in international markets.

But a report recently suggested that the Oppo Watch 3 will make its way to India by the end of March or early April. Unfortunately, the report did not reveal anything more about the product.

Oppo Watch 3

In 2020, Oppo debuted the first-generation Oppo Watch in international markets. That wearable featured different chipsets in mainland China and other regions.

The Oppo Watch 2 series remained exclusive to China. Now, if the report is to be believed, the Oppo Watch 3 will be released in international markets.

Since the first-gen model had different specs across regions, there’s a chance that the Oppo Watch 3 for global markets could be different from the original sold in China.

We wouldn’t be surprised if Oppo launches the recently debuted Oppo Watch SE as Oppo Watch 3 outside mainland China. Because this particular wearable could help the company maintain competitive pricing.

Either way, we hope that Oppo brings any of these smartwatches to global markets. Because the options for watches with Wear OS are way more limited than in previous years.

Samsung’s Galaxy Watch 4 and Galaxy Watch 5 series of wearables are currently the default choice for anyone looking for a proper smartwatch on the Android platform. The only other options are Fosill Gen 6 Wellness Edition and Google Pixel Watch. But these two are only sold in select countries, unlike Galaxy Watches which are available in almost all regions.

Both Oppo Watch 3 and Oppo Watch SE feature great hardware. The former is powered by a Snapdragon W5 chip, while the latter houses a Snapdragon 4100 Plus SoC. They also come with co-processors, namely Apollo 4 Plus (Watch 3) and Apollo 4s (Watch SE).

The aforementioned hardware is enough to run the latest Wear OS 3.0 smoothly. Thus, if Oppo brings either of these watches to global markets, they can take on Samsung.

These wearables also offer features, such as eSIM, Bluetooth calling, multiple sports modes, heart rate monitoring, blood oxygen level monitoring, sleep tracking, 5ATM water resistance, and more. But they lack ECG and blood pressure monitoring, which are offered on Galaxy Watch 4/5.

That being said, we are looking forward to learning more details about the Oppo Watch 3 global variant in the coming days. Do let us know your expectations of this upcoming wearable in the comment section below.

There are currently no details available on the specific features and specifications of the OPPO Pad 2, but it is likely to offer improved display and performance compared to its predecessor. The OPPO Watch 3, on the other hand, is expected to have improved features and functionality compared to the OPPO Watch 2. It is not known at this time what the new color option for the smartwatch will be.

The OPPO Pad 2 and OPPO Watch 3 are likely to be popular choices among OPPO fans in India who are seeking high-quality tablet and smartwatch options. Both devices are expected to appeal to consumers who need devices that can keep up with their busy lifestyles and help them stay connected and productive.

OPPO Enco X2 Golden Years And OPPO Watch 3 Glacier Gray To Launch On December 15

Jeet — Tue, 13 Dec 2022 05:22:35 +0000

OPPO has been launching a lot of mobile accessories along with mid-range and premium smartphones in the market. Now, the company is set to introduce new color options for two of its already-launched accessories.

The company has announced that the OPPO Enco X2 Golden Years and OPPO Watch 3 Series Glacier Gray will be launched in the Chinese market on 15th December, i.e., tomorrow.

The launch of this new version of devices will take place at the OPPO Future Technology Conference 2022, aka OPPO Inno Day 2022, which kicks off today, i.e., on 14th December, and ends tomorrow, on 15th December.

Not just these two new models, the company is also all set to launch its flagship OPPO Find N2 foldable smartphone on 15th December as a successor to the OPPO Find N that was launched earlier this year.

OPPO Enco X2 features a dual driver setup with an 11mm dynamic driver paired with a 6 mm planar diaphragm driver and supports a coding rate of up to 900kbps thanks to Bluetooth 5.2 and the LHDC 4.0 transmission protocol. It features a 38 dB/Pa microphone setup and multiple noise cancellation levels. The TWS earbuds use three microphones with Bone Voiceprint AI to reduce noise during calls and are capable of offering up to 9.5 hours of music playback on a single charge.

On the other hand, the OPPO Watch 3 features a 1.75-inch AMOLED display with a screen resolution of 430 x 372 pixels. It is powered by the new Qualcomm Snapdragon W5 chipset and the company’s own Apollo 4 Plus chip, coupled with 1GB RAM and 32GB of internal storage. The device runs the ColorOS Watch 5.0 out-of-the-box and is powered by a 400mAh battery, offering four days of battery life.

OPPO Watch 3 Pro Review: The best Android Full-functioned Smartwatch?

Sern Wen — Sat, 01 Oct 2022 09:57:56 +0000

You guys might find it hard to argue with the fact that the Apple Watch is the most powerful smartwatch ever made. But this may require a prerequisite that you are using an iPhone. Obviously, Apple is not bothering to make an effort to win over Android phone users. So do Android users have a similar option to the Apple Watch?

[embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K72kAGxF2M8[/embedyt]

We’ve reviewed quite a lot of Smartwatches that support Android well, such as the Amazfit series and the Huawei Watch series. The Huawei Watch is especially impressive and we also believe that the latest HUAWEI Watches is probably the best choice for Android users. But when the OPPO Watch 3 series got released, we wondered if things had changed.

So today, let’s check whether the OPPO Watch 3 Pro is the most powerful smartwatch to go with an Android phone.

Design

The OPPO Watch 3 Pro has undergone a significant change in its appearance. Most notably, the Watch has a curved-top design that visually fits the curvature of the human wrist. But if you look closer, you will also notice that the bottom in contact with the skin doesn’t have a similar curved design.

Combined with the curved design of the top, the whole watch looks a bit bulky from the side. But from the front when we use it normally, it looks pretty refined and smooth. At the same time, the curved design also makes the watch look sportier and more stylish. On both sides of the dial, the watch comes with a speaker and a microphone for voice commands, playing music, and making phone calls.

The rectangular display is bright and legible, which gives the watch an advantage over round dials in showing text content. In addition to touch input, the smooth-scrolling digital crown allows users to zoom in and out, and scroll content with good precision.

Display

The curved LTPO display supports adaptive refresh rates, which can reach a minimum refresh rate of 1Hz. It’s a great feature for smartwatches but unfortunately, most new smartwatches do not yet support this feature. It can significantly extend the watch’s battery life with less power consumption for daily use. This is especially true for sports tracking. Thanks to the low-power LTPO display, the Watch also allows users to work out with the Always-on feature. And the 1.91-inch AMOLED display has a peak brightness of 1000 nits. So even under the bright sun, the display content can still be seen clearly.

Snapdragon W5 & Apollo 4 Plus

Battery life is probably the biggest headache for a full-function smartwatch. Well, the OPPO Watch 3 Pro offers pretty good solutions to this issue in both software and hardware departments, at least on paper. The watch adopts a dual-chip design for hardware, one of which is the latest 4nm Qualcomm wearable chip, the Snapdragon W5. It is ideal for high-load smart scenarios and brings a much smoother software experience than its predecessor, along with 40% lower power consumption as claimed. In addition, it also features another small core chip called Apollo 4 Plus to achieve low-power consumption for all-day standby.

Software

For software, there’s a Power-saver mode that can be fast activated by long-pressing the crown. In this mode, you will not be able to install and use third-party apps, and only limited features are available here. For example, there are only several sports tracking modes available in this mode with no AOD. The function menu can only be listed without any animation. And the experience will not be as smooth as in the Smart mode. However, you will significantly extend the battery life from 3 or 4 days to about 2 weeks. So under the Power-saver mode, it works almost the same as a smart band product.

Like the HUAWEI Watch we reviewed before, the OPPO Watch 3 Pro also supports multiple health tracking features, such as Blood oxygen, stress, heart rate, sleep, and step monitor. You can see the ECG app here and probably you’ve also noticed that we didn’t tell you anything about the touch button down below the crown on the side, which actually is an electrode for ECG detection. However, by far the ECG feature is not available yet, so there is nothing you can do with the ECG app, and for now, the electrode doesn’t have any other functions. (P.S. It seems that OPPO has recently pushed the ECG feature, but we’re not sure if it will work in non-Chinese regions.)

It’s almost the same experience as other smartwatches when it comes to these health tracking. But compared to the latest HUAWEI Watches, there’s no skin temperature detection.

As for sports tracking, there are over 100 tracking modes for options. On the OPPO Watch 3 Pro, it’s great to find my favorite basketball and soccer modes, which are still not available on HUAWEI watches. Apart from a few exercises like running and walking, it can only record limited data like exercise time, heart rate, and calories burned.

The companion app of the watch is called HeyTap Health, which is available for all Android phones. The app looks good but I still prefer the Huawei health app, which has a better breakdown and summary of data, and you can also get more life and exercise tips in the app and more training courses with Huawei’s wearables.

The OPPO Watch 3 Pro is undoubtedly the most versatile Android smartwatch on paper. It supports NFC, third-party app installation, voice assistant, and E-sim functions for independent calls. But some of these features only work well in China. For example, some third-party apps are only available in Chinese; the voice assistant couldn’t recognize languages other than Chinese, and the e-sim features only support Chinese carriers.

So if you are concerned about these features, I suggest you wait until the watch gets released in your region or globally. Then I believe OPPO will fix all these regional adaptation issues.

Or you can check out the latest Huawei watches we’ve reviewed. All of them actually got released globally, and they’ve done a better job of customizing features to different regions.

However, I still want to share with you the points that this watch does well in software. For example, It has the best AOD feature that I’ve ever experienced on an Android smartwatch. The system feels really smooth and the experience is close to Apple Watches. Especially for the main menu, instead of simply zooming the app bubbles in and out, it gets a more regular arrangement when zoomed in or out. And it also shows the apps’ names if the bubbles become big enough. Even though the experience of these third-party apps is not perfect, we could still find apps to have fun with, such as the FitBuddy app. I believe you would enjoy having a kitten on your watch.

Under the smart mode, the watch lasted for over 3 days as we turned almost all the features on. But when you switch to the Power-saver mode, the watch can work like a sports smart band with standby for around 2 weeks.

I’m happy to see that the watch gives the choice to the user… But wait, in that case, why don’t I buy a cheaper smart band instead of the bulky watch which claims to be all-powerful, right?

So that’s all the facts that we believe are important about the OPPO Watch 3 Pro. To be honest, we are a bit disappointed, but it’s not exactly the product problem. For those users who live in China, it certainly deserves the title of one of the best smartwatches. However, if not, I do not really recommend you guys to get it from an overseas retailer as you may have trouble with the language.

So what are your thoughts on the OPPO Watch 3 Pro? Let us know in the comments section down below.

Jeet — Fri, 19 Aug 2022 06:59:07 +0000

A few weeks ago, OPPO had announced its latest smartwatch lineup in the form of OPPO Watch 3 series. As the name indicates, the wearable device is a successor to the Watch 2 lineup launched by the company last year.

Today, the company has officially started selling the OPPO Watch 3 series smartwatches in the Chinese market. OPPO is also offering a 100 yuan discount for those who purchase the product in the first sale.

Coming to the specifications, the OPPO Watch 3 lineup comes with a square dial, just like its predecessors. The Watch 3 feature a 1.75-inch AMOLED screen with a screen resolution of 430 x 372 pixels, while the Watch 3 Pro has a larger 1.91-inch LTPO curved OLED display with a screen resolution of 496 x 378 pixels.

Under the hood, both the devices come powered by the new Qualcomm Snapdragon W5 chipset coupled with 1GB RAM and 32GB of internal storage. There’s also the company’s own Apollo 4 Plus chip.

It comes with support for LTE connectivity, Bluetooth 5.0, GNSS, and NFC for payments, passes, and car keys, among others.

Oppo Watch 3 series launched: Snapdragon W5 chip, LTPO display, ECG, and more

Sudarshan Ravichandran — Wed, 10 Aug 2022 12:21:40 +0000

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.

OPPO Watch 3 Series with Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 tipped to debut on August 10

Jed John Ikoba — Tue, 02 Aug 2022 12:21:08 +0000

Qualcomm recently announced the Snapdragon W5+ Gen 1 and Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 premium wearable platforms. Chinese tech giant OPPO earlier today released a teaser on China’s microblogging platform Weibo that confirmed that its upcoming Watch 3 Series smartwatch will be powered by the Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 platform. Now, well-known Weibo tipster Digital Chat Station has hinted that the OPPO Watch 3 Series will be officially unveiled on August 10th.

The appearance of this upcoming watch series has also been revealed ahead of time. The watch will have an ECG support feature and an LTPO adaptive refresh rate panel, according to the leaker.

With rounded corners and a glossy, textured frame that gives it a luxurious appearance, the Watch 3 Series appears to have a similar design to Apple watches. The watch also features a working button and a crown that can turn. Additionally, there is a speaker grill on one side, indicating that eSIM standby calling will be available.

The Watch 3 Series’ Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 processor is based on the 4nm architecture and has low power Wi-Fi, GNSS, and audio islands as well as low power states like Deep Sleep and Hibernate.

Along with a host of other features, it supports 3D watch faces, 3D maps and navigation, real-time 2-way smart calling, smart device controls, and much more. We might anticipate that the Watch 3 Series will have a longer battery life than the Watch 2 Series because this chip is more energy-efficient.

OPPO Watch 3 tipped to launch in August as the first Snapdragon W5 Gen 1-powered watch

Jed John Ikoba — Wed, 20 Jul 2022 15:10:24 +0000

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.

OPPO Watch 2 leaked image

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.
