Oppo confirms imminent global launch for new luxury smartwatch with up to 16 days battery life
Oppo is less than a week away from hosting a major global launch event. Currently, the company is expected to present the Find X9 Ultra, Pad 5 and the Watch X3, as well as its Enco Clip2 earbuds. While these devices will not receive official releases until April 21, Oppo is offering a few hints ahead of time.
For instance, we spotted the company listing two Pad 5 SKUs while opening Find X9 Ultra reservations. Not only that, but Oppo appears to have confirmed Watch X3 global pricing too. For context, the Watch X2 debuted for €379 (~$449) in the Eurozone, although its price has since dropped to €279 (~$329).
Currently, Oppo's German and Spanish website indicates that the Watch X3 will cost as much as its predecessor. This €379 (~$449) pricing reflects the smartwatch's Misty Titanium and Obsidian Black, which both feature 2 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage. Oppo's Watch X2 and Watch X2 Mini global releases suggest that the Watch X3 will be available outside China running Wear OS, too.
Thus, the Watch X3 should rival the Pixel Watch 4, Galaxy Watch8 and Galaxy Watch Ultra (curr. $649 on Amazon), albeit with a more luxurious finish than Google and Samsung's latest smartwatches. The Watch X3 also contains a 1.5-inch LTPO AMOLED display, as well as a 646 mAh battery rated for up to 16 days of battery life. Please see our launch article for more details about the smartwatch's Chinese release.
