New OnePlus luxury smartwatch rears its head before release

Last week, OnePlus began teasing the launch of its Pad 4 tablet. Another high-end release, the Pad 4 has only been confirmed in India so far. At the same time, initial details about the company's next smartwatch emerged on X.

Now, the latter has turned up on the Google Play Console with the same model number and retail name as last week's leak. While the leak does not reveal when the OnePlus Watch 4 will be available, it does outline multiple specifications ahead of the smartwatch's official release.

Unfortunately, previous suggestions that OnePlus has carried over hardware from the older Watch 3 were accurate (curr. $249.99 on Amazon). For instance, the Google Play Console outlines that the Watch 4 combines 2 GB of RAM with Qualcomm's Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 chipset rather than the newer Snapdragon Wear Elite.

Additionally, the Watch 4 has a 466 x 466-pixel display with a 320 DPI, like its predecessor. Hence, OnePlus' next smartwatch likely features a 1.5-inch display, too. Ultimately, the Watch 4 looks increasingly like a re-badged Watch X3, which Oppo is set to launch in the Eurozone on April 21 for €379 (~$449).
