OnePlus to Launch a Smartwatch Soon!

OnePlus Smartwatch Coming SoonThough OnePlus failed with OnePlus X back in the day, it regained the lost pride in mid-segment by launching OnePlus Nord earlier this month. Watching that success, it’s now planning to enter a new market – Smartwatch. Smartwatches are in the market for a while, and every major smartphone company has launched one already.

Google trailed with one back in 2016 when it launched its Pixel and Pixel XL handsets, but scraped it immediately after finding the wearables aren’t a match yet. Even OnePlus has tried this in 2016, but Pete Lau canceled this idea saying

We had completed the design but we still decided to scrap it. We have to be focused on.”

OnePlus has polished its smartphone product line very well to make the brand so powerful, thereby launching any other tech gadget under it could be a hit. This worked well with the launch of smart TV and wireless earphones. Also, they decided to pull down as they thought the hardware wasn’t ready and the market isn’t mature yet.
