OnePlus set an interesting standard with Watch 3 and Wear OS 5


We now know what's different about the OnePlus Watch 3's version of Wear OS, when the OnePlus Watch 2 gets Wear OS 5, and how many updates to expect.

Some credit must go to the silicon-carbon battery, but we can also consider its switch to Wear OS 5: Google added some battery-saving background changes last year that'll pay off in subtle ways for OnePlus Watch 3 buyers.

Wear OS updates aside, the OnePlus Watch 3 is an incredibly strong option out of the box thanks to its five-day battery life and blazingly fast charging speed, not to mention a bright, smooth 1.5-inch AMOLED display and a stylish titanium bezel.
