In an interview with Wareable, a OnePlus rep acknowledged that the one-size Watch 3 “remains heavy for a small wrist.”
He promised that they will “fix” the lack of a small option this year, which could suggest a smaller OnePlus Watch 3R or Watch 4.
He also discussed the reason why the OnePlus Watch 3 only has an LTE version in China.
As much as the OnePlus Watch 3 has impressed us so far with its incredible battery life, we don’t know how long it would last with a lighter, more comfortable case size. But based on statements from Dr. Leo Zhang, the Head of R&D at the OnePlus Health Lab, they’re “working on” a smaller OnePlus Watch that should answer that question soon.
PULSE by Wareable, which interviewed Zhang, quotes him as saying, “It’s true that the [46mm OnePlus Watch 3] remains heavy for a small wrist and that this typically affects women, but we will fix that this year. We value our customer’s voice and we’re working on that.”
