OnePlus fans in India have received disappointing news regarding the brand’s latest smartwatch. OnePlus launched the third-generation OnePlus Watch in the US and Europe last week, but there was no word about its availability in India back then. The new confirmation pertains to the OnePlus Watch 3 which will not be available in India at this time. This comes just after OnePlus scrapped the launch of the highly anticipated OnePlus Open 2 this year.

OnePlus Watch 3 Won’t Launch in India for Now; Company Says It’s Evaluating Market Before Future Announcements
However, OnePlus hasn’t given an explanation as to why the Watch 3 isn’t coming to India. The company won’t launch products that don’t resonate strongly in the market, it said, noting that it is studying the region closely to select just those that will be of the most interest and influence. This development will surely disappoint OnePlus users in India as they are already bereft of OnePlus Open 2 and now it seems that the Watch 3 will not be coming either. Both devices feature significant upgrades compared to their predecessors.
In a statement to its Indian audience, OnePlus assured that―while there would be no situation for the OnePlus Watch 3 to be available in India at this point in time, the brand is focused on bringing the latest and most pertinent details to its Indian audience. It also tells users to watch out for future announcements. However, OnePlus could always potentially launch a follow-up to the OnePlus Watch 2R, a more affordable variant of the Watch 2 that was first released in July last year.
The OnePlus Watch 3 retains the same design as its predecessor and boasts military-grade durability with an IP68 water resistance rating. It features a 1.5-inch AMOLED display with a peak brightness of 2,200 nits. The smartwatch offers advanced health tracking, including ECG measurements, a temperature sensor, and a 60-second health check-in, along with standard features such as heart rate monitoring, SpO2 tracking, sleep analysis, and stress monitoring. It is powered by an upgraded 631mAh battery and supports 100 workout modes while running on WearOS 5.0. The OnePlus Watch 3 is priced at $329.99 (~₹28,690) and will be available starting February 25.
