How exactly the Pro version will differ from the regular Watch S1 is not yet clear. Recall that the current model has a stainless steel case, a round AMOLED screen with a diameter of 1.43 inches, protected by sapphire glass, heart rate and SpO2 sensors, an NFC chip. All this (and even more) will be in the Watch S1 Pro.

Oppo is preparing to introduce several new devices at once this week, while the manufacturer has already announced the start of accepting pre-orders for the Oppo Watch 3 in its Chinese online store.

In addition, the specifications of the device were confirmed on the order page. The Oppo Watch 3 Pro will feature a 1.91-inch curved AMOLED LTPO display with Always-on Display (AoD). At the same time, the characteristics of the screen of the regular Oppo Watch 3 model have not yet been disclosed.

Both models will be based on the Qualcomm Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 single-chip system and will receive the Oppo Apollo 4 Plus coprocessor. They will support heart rate, SpO2, ECG, eSIM, NFC and offer water resistance (5ATM). The watch will run Oppo ColorOS Watch. The Oppo Watch 3 series will be available in black and silver.

The presentation will take place on August 10th.

The watch will be equipped with eSIM, NFC, heart rate and SpO2 sensors, and will also be water resistant (5ATM).
