For several months now, there have been rumors that OnePlus will be releasing a smaller smartwatch. Naturally, when OPPO unveiled its Watch X2 Mini on April 10, those rumors intensified. And this morning, OnePlus officially announced the arrival of a smaller watch with the name OnePlus Watch 3 43mm.

Exclusive CAD renders of the OnePlus Watch 3 43mm have now been made available to us by Onleaks, and they reveal some design modifications from the larger OnePlus Watch 3. However, as anticipated, it still has the same appearance as the OPPO Watch X2 Mini.

In terms of specifications, the OnePlus Watch 3 43mm ought to have a 1.32-inch AMOLED 2.5D screen with 466 x 466 resolution. The 43mm body, which is significantly smaller than the 47mm Watch 3, will house that. Surprisingly, though, it is only somewhat smaller than the “bigger” sizes of the Pixel Watch 3 and Galaxy Watch 7.

Wear OS and RTOS will continue to be the two operating systems that the OnePlus Watch 3 43mm will support, as anticipated. Additionally, it will share the Qualcomm Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 processor with its bigger sibling. containing 32GB of storage and 2GB of RAM. Additionally, it will come in two colors: black and white.

Shorter battery life for OnePlus Watch 3 43mm

The battery life will be one of the drawbacks of this smaller smartwatch form. The 345mAh battery that OnePlus has included this time around is supposed to last up to 72 hours. In contrast, it can be used for 100 hours, or slightly more than five days. With RTOS, you could probably extend it to about a week, even though this figure probably refers to Wear OS usage.

OnePlus did preserve a lot of the other specs from the bigger broather, such 5 ATM water resistance, IP68 sensors and tracking, WiFi, and Bluetooth 5.2. A variety of sensors are also included, such as a barometer, gyroscope, accelerometer, geomagnetic sensor, optical pulse oximeter, gyroscope, ambient light sensor, and optical heart rate sensor.
