The OnePlus Watch 3 has again surfaced online with a regulatory listing revealing some key details about its design and specifications. While not much is known about the upcoming smartwatch from official sources, it is speculated based on hints and online appearances that the smartwatch will be launched sooner than expected. Rumours also suggest the smartwatch is also expected to be slimmer than its predecessor while boasting a larger battery.
According to the FCC listing spotted by folks at 91Mobiles, the OnePlus Watch 3 will retain a similar overall size to the Watch 2 measuring 46.6 x 47.6mm. It is just slightly larger than the previous generation’s 47 x 46.6mm dimensions.
However, it will be thinner at 11.75mm thickness compared to the Watch 2’s 12.1mm thickness. The difference may seem very minimal on the specification sheet but experts believe it could make the new watch more comfortable to wear.
The difference in dimensions is not the only change we know about. There is a significant jump in battery capacity as well. The listing mentions a battery in the range of 631-648 mAh (rated and typical capacities), which is a substantial increase from the 500 mAh battery in the OnePlus Watch 2.
Other than that, the FCC listing doesn’t reveal any images or design details but it confirms key connectivity options, which include Bluetooth (BR+EDR+BLE), GNSS, NFC and dual-band Wi-Fi (2.4GHz and 5GHz).
