Everything about China's Innovation
On August 10, OPPO held a launch event to unveil the Watch 3 series, Band 2, Enco Air2i, Pad Air, as well as several new IoT products, covering four family scenes: home security, efficient cleaning, intelligent lighting and daily health.
For 2022, OPPO is introducing the Watch 3 series for which there are two models, the Watch 3 and the Watch 3 Pro. The Watch 3 Pro is the first smartwatch equipped with an LTPO screen in China and is equipped with a large 1.91-inch AMOLED screen with equal width on all four sides and 1000nit ultra-high brightness. The watch dial and motion monitoring data can be viewed at any time without needing to lift the wrist.
The OPPO Watch 3 Pro adapts the Snapdragon W5 platform which helps reduce the device’s power consumption by 40%. Through UDDE dual-engine hybrid 2.0 technology, the Snapdragon W5 and Apollo4 Plus chip work together to provide better performance. Under the intelligent mode, the smartwatch supports 5-day battery life, which is 25% longer than the previous generation. In the light intelligent mode, the watch provides all the functionality of most other sports watches, such as Bluetooth call, sports monitoring and notification viewing, and provides battery life for 15 days.
OPPO has added a vascular health research function in the smartwatch which can detect the elasticity of blood vessels every thirty seconds by using an ECG + PPG sensor, helping detect vascular sclerosis. In terms of sports, the tennis mode is customized exclusively and offers five specific data points: hitting times, swing speed, active time, heart rate and calorie consumption.
The OPPO Watch 3 is equipped with the same dual chipset and lasts four days under intelligent mode and 10 days under light intelligent mode. The 1.75-inch AMOLED screen has a classic square design, which might be more suitable for users with small wrists.
OPPO Watch 3 Pro’s black version with fluorine rubber strap is priced at 1999 yuan ($297) while the version with a brown leather strap is 2099 yuan while the non-Pro version is also available with a fluorine rubber strap for 1599 yuan, and a golden leather strap version will sell for 1699 yuan.
The OPPO Band 2 measures 45.3 x 29.1 x 10.6mm and weighs only 33 g. It is equipped with a 1.57-inch AMOLED ultra-clear full screen and supports 200 dial styles and over 100 sports modes. The newly launched professional tennis mode equipped with the OPPO Watch 3 series is also available for the Band 2. The highly demanded e-sports mode has also been added to the band. The fitness band comes with a built-in 200mAh battery that can last up to 14 days. The standard version of the OPPO Band 2 is priced at 249 yuan, whereas the NFC version has a price tag of 279 yuan.
OPPO Enco X2 has released six firmware updates since its launch. The update in June supported LDAC protocol and was widely compatible with Android smartphones. This conference introduced a better listening experience. On top of the three technologies of leakage compensation, ear canal compensation and personalized hearing sense, OPPO added a self-developed algorithm. At the same time, in order to improve wearing comfort and reduce noise, OPPO had introduced some new accessories for OPPO Enco X2 users.
OPPO Enco Air2i supports 28 hours of battery life and comes with several custom sound modes and AI noise cancellation for clear quality on calls, and an in-ear design. The earphones are powered by a 460mAh battery unit with each earbud backed by a 40mAh cell. They are priced at 149 yuan.
This conference also introduced a new purple color scheme for the OPPO Pad Air. The upper portion of the tablet presents a warm afterglow-like sunset, which is matched with a large, elegant purplish lower half. Compared with the other two color schemes – gray and silver, the new model brings a much more warm appearance. In addition, the OPPO Pad Air has also added some new software while the app store will later update the dynamic wallpaper and fonts to match the new color scheme. The tablet starts from 1499 yuan.
