OnePlus Watch may not actually be an OPPO Watch clone

August 22, 2025

Concrete evidence of theOnePlus Watchresurfaced last month via a regulatory listing. Now, an apparent design detail of the wearable has emerged via Twitter tipster Max J.

It was believed that the OnePlus wearable could be based on the rectangularOPPO Watch. But according to the tipster, the OnePlus Watch will adopt a more traditional circular design.

The move would be a throwback to theoriginal OnePlus Watch sketchesCarl Pei published to Twitter back in 2016. The company had a product ready to go but canned its release due to the “cruel market” conditions at the time.

Now, as renewed health consciousness throws fitness-focused smartwatches back into the spotlight, it seems the perfect time to launch the device.

OnePlus Watch: A beefier vivo Watch?

OnePlus may not have to build its own circular chassis from scratch either.

The rumoredvivo Watchbroke cover earlier this week featuring a stainless steel body with leather straps, bearing an AMOLED screen, and carrying a host of sensors. It is said to come in below the OPPO Watch in the BBK pecking order, but that wouldn’t stop OnePlus from using the same steel chassis with more premiumSnapdragon 4100-based hardware.

It remains unclear when the OnePlus Watch could make its debut, but the regulatory listing’s existence does suggest it could be pretty soon. It’s possible the wearable could launch alongside a flagship smartphone, like the rumoredOnePlus 8T, later this year.
