The OnePlus Watch 2 is a bid to redeem its smartwatch reputation


With Fossil gone, this could be an opportunity for OnePlus, if it doesn’t screw it up.

Not only will the $299.99 OnePlus Watch 2 run on Google’s Wear OS 4 but it’ll also use a novel dual-engine architecture that will purportedly enable up to 100 hours of battery life. The most interesting thing about the OnePlus Watch 2’s hardware is it features two separate chipsets: the Qualcomm Snapdragon W5 and the BES 2700 MCU. The latter means the watch can access the L5 satellite frequency, which translates to more accurate GPS data in challenging environments like cities or dense forests.
