OPPO on Friday, August 7, launched their first smartwatch, the OPPO Watch, for P12,990.
The OPPO Watch looks like an Apple Watch, the best-selling line in its category, but is much cheaper than the latest Series 5 Apple Watch (about P24,000), and in the same price range as a Series 3 (about P12,000). It runs on Google’s Wear OS.
While OPPO makes distinct-looking phones now such as the Find X and the Find X2, the brand, along with other Chinese brands, has made phones whose designs borrow heavily from iPhones. The OPPO Watch sees the brand pull off a similar move, this time, mimicking the design of the Apple Watch.
The device will have fast-charging, adopting the company’s VOOC Flash Charging system from OPPO phones. The system will allow the device’s battery to be charged to 30% in 15 minutes. OPPO says the device has a battery life of up to 24 hours when in smart mode and 14 days in
power saver mode.
One interesting feature is its outfit-matching watch face. Through its HeyTap Health app, a user can photograph their outfit, and the watch will recommend a watch face that complements it.
It has a watch case size of 41mm, is made of an aluminum alloy frame, and has a 1.6-inch AMOLED display. The device can download watch apps through the Google Play Store.
It has 4 photoplethysmogram (PPG) sensor for heart monitoring as opposed to an electrocardiogram (ECG) system. It has GPS, and has 5ATM water resistance, which means it can be submerged in water up to 50 meters in depth for 10 minutes.
The device will be available at OPPO concept and online stores, and e-commerce partner Lazada. – Rappler.com
