OnePlus The OnePlus Watch, the company’s first smartwatch ever, was released last year, but both tech enthusiasts and reviewers were unimpressed. The activity monitoring functionality was only on par with a low-cost fitness band, with the exception of the seamless connection with the OnePlus range of goods, such as smart TVs and smartphones.
Along with the Nord Buds, OnePlus 10R 5G, and OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G, this will be the first wearable product from Nord. The listing has no information about the smartwatch’s deep specs outside the marketing name. In the second half of the year, the Nord smartwatch is anticipated to debut with the OnePlus Nord 3.
