OnePlus Watch 2 Review | WearOS Done Right!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 июн 2024
- Reviewing the OnePlus Watch 2, a WearOS smartwatch that for me beats Google's own Pixel Watch 2, and is a solid rival to Samsung's Galaxy Wear efforts. The OnePlus Watch 2 boasts the best battery life of most recent alternatives, outside of Xiaomi and Huawei wearables using proprietary OS's. You can buy one in the UK for £299 or US for $299, and it's 329 Euros.
This amazing longevity comes courtesy of the OnePlus Watch 2's dual chipset and dual OS setup. WearOS is handled by Qualcomm's Snapdragon W5, while basic tasks including health tracking use a low-powered BES chip. In this way, you can get three to four days of battery life from a single charge of this smartwatch.
WearOS is of course as user friendly as always, if slightly buggy here on the OnePlus Watch 2 at launch. This should be sorted in updates, of course. Performance is excellent and the massive display is a stunner, but this smartwatch certainly isn't designed for smaller wrists.
I've reviewed loads of OnePlus Watch 2 rivals right here on Tech Spurt, Pixel Watch and Samsung's Galaxy Wear included. Oh, and stay tuned for my verdict on the Xiaomi Watch S3!

Been tuning into your reviews recently. Really appreciate the detail and no BS style. Keep it up and thanks.
Best reviewer! I was waiting for you to post this video but I didn't have enough patience and I ordered it yesterday 😁
Me too :)
Where from?

Awesome and fun review mate! Have a pre order in ! Long time iOS recently switched to android OP12.. Loving it!
Chinese stuff is so cool these days .
Nice review! I got an email earlier today from OnePlus and my Watch 2.0 just shipped...
Can't wait for this! I was waiting for a better option over the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic and Mobvoi TicWatch 5.
I pre-ordered it and can't wait to get it. Thank you for the review!
You can get it for $100 in the USA if you order with the OnePlus 12 (you get 66% off). I just got the OnePlus 12, one plus buds 3 and the OnePlus watch 2 all for under $1000.
Ordered mine for $220 after trading in some old clunker and using a 10% off coupon. 👍
sell me for 150$ :P
Where did you order from
So a fantastic phone. Amazing smartwatch and I'm not sure about the buds but wow what a deal
You just spent 1000$ 🙂
Thanks for the review,fella. Might give this a go.
GREAT REVIEW! Nice watch .. love the button design .. happy with my 47 classic... this would be my number 2 choice
Thank you for your review. This sounds like a watch that the other manufacturers need to take note of when designing their new Wearables.
Purchased after launch event. Cannot wait for it to be delivered
How was it ?
I am enjoying wearing and using it.
Great video! Thank you and keep it going... Any apps I should consider?? Oh and I like hobnobs!
How is the GPS?
Is there any altimeter or barometer?
Is the watch capable to detect atmospheric pressure change and notify?
One plus watch is absolutely beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
This is how i imagined the pixel watch was going b
@@jamiesplinter8758 me too 😊
It's too chunky, and looks dorky
@@fizzyfiz6951 shut up
@@fizzyfiz6951 it is not for beta males. it has that alpha vibe
"If you like fun... I don't!"
😂
Already pre-ordered! With OP offering $50 for any smartwatch in any condition, was a no brainer.
Great Review ! Just ordered mine unbelievable value, used a £50 voucher one plus gave me plus Buds 3 included all for £219. Looking forward to 8th March 24 delivery date.
my watch arrived 2 days after purchase. unsure if it was a mistake or not
@@plainoli6748lucky you man, I pre ordered within an hour but it said shipping will start from next week
@@plainoli6748
That is fast. Mine will come on 6th of April :(
If I order now, they will give me oneplus nord buds 2. And I already got those when buying my phone in July.
Absolutely Bangin! (Love it!)
I can't wait for mine to come on the 8th . Hopefully will be okay with the OnePlus 11 phone .
Nice watch, will it work with the Galaxy S24 Ultra?
Hope you've got your pre-order or press pack OnePlus 12R Genshin Impact edition coming
The exact moment that you bleeped out the word **** RUclips cut to an advert. I thought for a moment they cut your stream! 😂
I got myself the Xiaomi watch 2 pro, on the 14th day of having it (the returns window) Oneplus announced this. Although the Xiaomi wathc is excellent the battery life isn't anywhere near the advertised 55 hours.
This would definitely have been the watch id gone for if they had announced it earlier or if I hadn't of been so impatient
This is what redemption looks like. Oneplus is just delivering banger after banger since the launch of oneplus open; OP12 / 12R, OP Buds 3 and now this brilliant smartwatch. It's just outstanding.
Does "do not disturb" sync regardless of android distribution? Oddly enough, bedtime mode just working is a make or break feat imo
Op watch 2 or ticwatch 5 Pro? Looking buy smart watch
Cool Review and Cool watches!
Is it easy to create waypoints?
What is the smaller watch on your right hand is that a Xiaomi watch ?
Hello, I do a lot of swimming, Will it count lengths like the Galaxy Watch did?
I see it works with the iPhone. Any idea how much functionality is lost?
When's the GalaxyFit3 review coming Uncle Spurt?
Smashing stuff.
is this watch locked to oneplus smartphones to access premium features, like they do with Samsung and Apple?
Can you use third-party bands on it? I see it uses 22mm bands...any reason I couldn't just put something different on there if I wanted to?
Yes it uses standard 22mm bands. 👍
tbh i dont really get the whole "it will do three days between charges!" thing if I'm charging my phone pretty much every day anyways. I'm using the Pixel Watch 2 and although it can survive 2 whole days I just charge it whenever I'm charging my phone, makes it really easy to keep track and its a super simple ritual since I'm already used to charging my phone anyways. Besides these things charge so fast, in like 10~15 mins its full
Does the quick settings have a find my phone feature?
Yes
I’m deciding between this and the Ticwatch 5 pro. Can I hear which you would pick please. I don’t know which to choose
I got the tic watch just last week and returned it a few days later it just wasn't for me hoping the one plus is different
Been waiting for your review as I am torn between Amazfit Balance, Huawei Gt4 or Oppo watch X (same watch as One Plus Watch 2 but different branding for Malaysia market). Opinion anyone which should I get @_@.
samee
Beautiful watch but those BEZELS!!!! I just bought the Galaxy watch 6 and it has really slim bezels which looks sharp. I'm debating returning it and getting this but not sure I could get past the chunky border
@TechSpurt Can you disable all sensors on this thing? I just want a smart watch with good battery life, NFC for payments and basic step tracking. I would do a Garmin, but I refuse to use their Garmin Pay when im already using Android Pay/Wallet. Thank you for the review.
Sounds like u don't need a smart watch
@@efonwang You're not wrong. Just need steps, battery life and nfc for payments. Havent been able to find one that fits my use case. I like Garmin except for their odd choice to not support GPay and stick to their Garmin Pay.
This watch is FANTASTIC! I've had the GW 5 and 6 but this watch is so much faster, battery life is better, less money and better looking (subjective) but its a great watch so far!
Concerning the crown, can you confirm that turning the crown actually changes the volume when you hear music as one tester pointed out?
it does not. i am running the latest version of the watch and in general it doesn't do anything, I've tried it on soundcloud aswell and it does not increase or decrease volume. I heard it was designed to spin to add strength to the watch.
@@plainoli6748yes I saw on the MKBHD review, that oneplus stated it spins to avoid damage when brushing against surfaces.
Do we need to reset it if a new device is connected. If so what happens to the data?
I've ordered one because the intro offers were crazy good, including free headphones. But damn it does look big, would be perfect at 42mm
I dunno. Lots of mad people about Pixel Watch 2 only being in 41mm. I think 43mm is the magic number for sizing between big and small wrists.
I have a 46mm watch and anything smaller feels way too small to use
@Ignacio.Romero it depends. I have a galaxy watch 4 classic, 5 Pro, watch 6 classic and pixel watch. Love the other watches and rotate them, but every day while at work I use the pixel watch because of the size.
I wish OnePlus had a smaller size like 43mm.
@@Ignacio.Romero I can guarantee, no matter how big your wrists are, something closer to 40mm looks better. The wrist dinner plate is not a look
Would you pick this watch or the Ticwatch Pro 5?
I've ordered the Watch 2 yesterday but I was a little bit sceptics since all reviews so far were kinda meh and didn't show me what I was looking for so I didn't know if I made good or bad decision. But your review included absolutely every detail I wanted to know (well almost every. I can't find anywhere if the haptic feedback is strong enough) and I am even more hyped for the Watch 2. 10/10 review.
As someone who has never used a smart watches but only xiaomi mi bands I am really looking forward to try the Watch 2 ^^
I remember MKBHD saying the haptics are kinda meh and the watch takes a couple seconds to display a notification after he raises his arm but other than that it's a great watch
@@trojanman4715 Yeah I saw that video. The notifications were surprising to me since MKBHD was the only one talking about it (we have to take into consideration that he had the pre release software). And it's hard to say what can we imagine by "meh haptics"
Some folks say the speaker is not good ?
@@augmach5 I didn't see anybody saying that the speaker is not good. Only that it could be better. But it will do the job without any issues
Zen watch 3 and Fossil had great speakers in my opinion. Just not sure what it means when they say could be better...
For me it has been working great to be on pre release software ❤
Would it work with Iphones?
Mr. Mobile had a coronary about the spinning bezel.
Is this also the same as Oppo Watch X?
Hopefully we will see better smartWatches after this, tho im happy with my Galaxy Watch6 classic
This will be my first smartwatch
Been a Samsung Knight for ages (shout-out to Flossy Carter) and this is going to be my first time ordering a OnePlus device.
I liked my Galaxy Watch 4, but I really need better battery life. I saw some people complain about a lack of an ECG sensor, but then I remembered that I could count on one hand how many times I actually used that feature on one hand.
Same here. I have a 5pro and debating if I should get this. It looks very nice
Pre-ordered mine 5 minutes after it went live.
Any news for new samsung phones
Does it also work with iOS?
What's your wrist size?
Pre-ordered mine yesterday
Same here
Same. $249 after throwing in some old clunker is a great deal. 👍
I ordered it 😮😮
I am looking to update my iPhone 7 finally… thinking iPhone 15 pro with Apple Watch or one +12 with this watch..! Any advice please.. Maccum down under 🙏🏻🇦🇺
So what did you pick
I got a 1TB oneplus12 mate.. so thinking plus watch 2 or Huawei pro gt
It looks crazy big
Thanks Mate
NFC is there or no
I got it ordered today
Does it have ECG ?
oneplus watch 2 or huawei watch 4?
how does it compare to TicWatch Pro 5?
I have tried the Watch 2 for a couple of months and I absolutely loves it. You can get a really good price on my Ticwatch pro 5 that has been stuck in a drawer since I got the Oneplus watch 2 😂
It was just released you couldn't have had for months .
@@tahirahmed33 I am in a test group that has been testing the software and the hardware of the Watch 2
@@tahirahmed33 Do you want me to send a picture of it?
@@tahirahmed33He must be a member of the community that is responsible for reviewing products.
at 7:20 thats soo bloody usefull !!!, can totally relate lmfao
I am tempted but I have resolved to wait over a year before I get another smartwatch lol
Thanks!
Would you pick this over a ticwatch pro 5? I have a pro 3 and deciding between this and ticwatch pro 5
EDIT* Nvm just went with OnePlus Watch 2 since it has wear os 4
I ordered mine. Coming from a Ticwatch Pro 3 Ultra. Been having issues since the last update. Keep losing BT connection.
@@doudymac I have a ultra but haven't really had problems with BT. I just want to upgrade to something newer. Ordered a black OnePlus watch 2. It looks really nice. Stop thinking of maybe the silver but everything I wear is mostly dark
I have a Ticwatch Pro 5 and, due to never updating the previous models, I'm wary of Ticwatch NEVER updating the 5 to Wear OS 4.0. So... I've ordered the OnePlus 2. Done. Goodbye Ticwatch (Shame, as the 5 really is a lovely item).
Amazing looking watch, OnePlus made a great watch for a good price.
swapping my OnePlus 11 for the OnePlus Open and OnePlus Watch 2 is only $915, I don't know if I should do it 😟
Does it have a calculator
That bezel is killing me
😂😂😂😂 that purple watchface...this dude always makes me laugh 😂😂
Do you know if you can install third party apps like Strava, etc?
It's running wear os so should have access to the play store
@@daleycarter I thank you for your input
As it becomes available in my country I might possibly invest in it to replace my outdated Samsung Galaxy Active 2 watch
This watch rocks ❤
Would you prefer this over the Galaxy Watch 6?
I ordered two 😏💓
does it have an always on setting? And how is battery life then and consequences concerning display burn-in?
Yes it does have always on display and it will still last for upto 70 hrs
Edit:never mind its a xiaomi
@tech spurt i hope that fitness tracker is galaxy fit 3 !
It was nice on your hand an i ordered on today😅
And probably a stupid question before I ask but you can actually reply to the notifications?
Nothing on how to charge?
i wonder what james gordon did u when ur younger koz dang
No ios support is a bummer i would like a round wearos watch to complement my square apple watch
Is that a Samsung Galaxy Fit 3 I spy on your right arm? 🙂
Mines en route......waiting for your review on xiaomi 14 ultra ....ive bought the 14 with free pad 6 and watch
Missing LTE is a deal breaker. It would have been the best watch on the market.
I love the versatility of wearOS and I’m still stuck on choosing for the Apple ecosystem when it comes to phones and wearables. Can you pair it up with a oneplus tablet? I have one of those so that would be great. Oh and can you watch videos on it? 😆
Looks heavy
Finally the smart watch industry got more interesting!
Is it the same as oppo watch x?
Yes, identical in practically every way.
Did they fix the GPS? My one+ watch 1 gps picked up the signal 5 minutes in my work out (so basically recorded only 1 minute 😂) a reason to sell it. Update: check, thanks for covering it 2 gps,,🙌
I waited to buy a 1+ watch. Not the 1st, not the Nord. But maybe this.
Can make calls and answer calls too
This or galaxy watch 6 classic 47mm?
This one 👌👌🔥
What is on your other hand?
Shud be the mi band 8 pro
