OnePlus Smart wearables Wear OS
Earlier today OnePlus made the Watch 3 official without much fanfare. It builds upon the seeming success of the OnePlus Watch 2 and OnePlus Watch 2R with an even bigger battery that should last for up to five days for normal use and even up to three days with intensive use.There’s also support for ECG readings, but there’s a catch regarding this function. Namely, it’s not going to be available in the US and Canada because OnePlus didn’t receive official certification from the FDA for the Watch 3’s ECG capabilities.Thus, the ECG Analyzer feature won’t be available in those countries. You’ll still get a version of the new 60-Second Health Check-In feature in the US and Canada, one that will not include ECG readings, starting at some point in the second quarter of this year (so between April and June).This comes straight from OnePlus, which has issued a statement on the matter to 9to5Google. It’s obviously unfortunate that the ECG feature won’t be working everywhere, but at least the company has come forward revealing the limitations on the first day of pre-orders, so you can make an informed buying decision on the new wearable.Speaking of which, the OnePlus Watch 3 is now up for pre-order for $329 / €349 / £319. Shipping will start on February 25 in some countries, and in early March in others. Do also note that your local OnePlus site might have an extra discount from the RRP if you pre-order.Aw, shucks.
