Leading global technology company OPPO launched its new flagship smartwatch – OPPO Watch X, a trusted companion designed to elevate every moment in life with dual-frequency GPS and multiple exclusive fitness monitoring features.

And enabled by a dual-engine architecture and hybrid interface by Wear OS by Google™,
Watch X has industry-leading endurance with up to 100 hours of battery life. Additionally, the watch gets up to 12 days with Power Saver Mode.

With Wear OS 4, the latest version of the platform, Watch X comes with smart connectivity and Google Play’s extensive app ecosystem.

A smart personal trainer on your wrist

With a growing need for more actionable fitness monitoring data from a smart wearable, OPPO has made accuracy a priority on the new Watch X. OPPO Watch X features dual-frequency GPS with the ability to receive both the commonly used L1 GPS signal and the more advanced L5 GPS signal.

The use of two separate antennas for each GPS signal further improves the precision and reliability of positioning for users when running, cycling, hiking, or exercising in environments with poor GPS coverage.

Thanks to the dual-frequency GPS, along with a high-precision accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer sensor, Watch X ensures more consistent data tracking for more precise measurements and improved accuracy when tracking workout routes.

OPPO and Wear OS worked closely to fine-tune these sensor capabilities. OPPO Watch X also provides automatic sports recognition with the ability to identify when the wearer is walking, running, cycling, swimming, or using a rowing machine.

For running enthusiasts, Watch X goes a step further with the addition of running posture recognition. This function can detect a runner's ground contact time (GCT), balance between the left and right foot GCT, step frequency, stride length, and more, all in real time and in both indoor and outdoor environments, allowing users to correct their running posture for improved safety and performance.

Other dedicated sports features available on OPPO Watch X include a dedicated badminton mode. Developed in-house by OPPO, the new feature collects specialist data during play and produces a post-match analysis across five dimensions of explosiveness, activity, endurance, confrontation, and offense to help users adjust aspects such as their swing strength and speed.

As with the running posture recognition, the data provided is highly actionable, allowing wearers to pinpoint their weaknesses and take their game to the next level.

Precision tracking for smarter health management

Alongside incredible sports and fitness tracking features, OPPO Watch X also includes plenty of features that empower wearers to better manage their everyday health.

By tracking sleep breathing rate, sleep blood oxygen level, baseline heart rate, snoring, body movement, and other sleep behavior, Watch X supports full-scenario sleep monitoring, even if it’s just a nap.

With in-depth weekly sleep tracking reports available through OPPO’s OHealth app, users can also closely monitor changes in sleep duration, sleep regularity, snoring risk, and their overall sleep score.

Together, the comprehensive sleep monitoring data enables users to better understand their quality of sleep each night and build habits that can lead to better sleep.

Phone (2a) embodies the first-ever internal smartphone design concept that was created a few months after Nothing launched in 2020. It integrates the phone’s components into its external design, showcasing key functions in new and innovative ways.

Behind the iconic “eyes” – represented by cameras inside the NFC coil – is the hub of intelligence that powers the phone, much like a brain. The rest of the elements are positioned using a circular grid system. This extends all the way to the edge of the phone to create more rounded corners, which now have a larger radius. Overall, this gives a coherent and softer look and feel to the device.

Phone (2a) features an industry-first with its 90° angle unibody cover wrapping around the edges to create a new dimension and perspective to our design, while seamlessly integrating the dual camera module. Not only is this structure aesthetically pleasing, it makes the device sturdier, with a notable improvement on drop test results.

To further captivate interest, Nothing created a sense of asymmetrical balance where the lower part of Phone (2a) is purposefully designed to disrupt the flow of the top. The battery cover was designed drawing inspiration from Massimo Vignelli’s New York subway map.

The camera ‘bump’ also plays a role in stabilising the phone when it’s lying flat on a surface as well as helping minimise finger obstructions when taking a picture.
