On the final day of February, the Oppo Watch X was launched globally in Malaysia. Just a short while before that, the same device was introduced as the OnePlus Watch 2 at MWC 2024.
Oppo Watch X Launch Details in China
This smart wearable is now set to hit the market in China. A reliable source not only disclosed the release date but also provided pricing information.
According to Digital Chat Station, the Oppo Watch X is scheduled to debut in China on March 22, although this date is subject to change.
Pricing and Features
The Chinese version of the watch will reportedly include eSIM support, yet it will be priced at only around ¥1,000 (~$140). In contrast, the global editions of the Oppo Watch X and OnePlus Watch 2, lacking eSIM functionality, are priced at approximately $300, which is more than double the cost in China.
The variation in international pricing is likely due to the integration of Wear OS 4. While in China, Oppo's smartwatches run on ColorOS Watch, which is based on AOSP and does not entail significant licensing fees to Google.
Specifications of the Oppo Watch X
In terms of hardware, the Oppo Watch X Chinese variant is anticipated to mirror its global counterpart. This includes features like a 1.43-inch circular AMOLED display, a Qualcomm Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 chip, 2GB RAM, 32GB storage, IP68 rating, MIL-STD-810H certification, WiFi, Bluetooth, GNSS, a speaker, a microphone, a 500mAh battery, and 7.5W charging support.
