With a new affordable option, the OnePlus might be set to return to the smartwatch war. According to a fresh claim from 91Mobiles, twitter tech tipster Yogesh Brar is to blame.OnePlus is preparing to offer a low-cost smartphone in India, according to Brar. The low-cost wristwatch will range in price from Rs 5,000 to Rs 8,000. To put that in perspective, the wristwatch would be in the sub-$100 range, competing with the Realme Watch 2 Lite.

There's no information on what specs and features the OnePlus Nord will have, although it might be released with the speculated OnePlus Nord 3.It wouldn't be the first smartwatch from OnePlus. The OnePlus Watch, which was released in 2021, received this dubious accolade.After being put on hold in 2016, the smartwatch was eagerly anticipated.Despite an appealing $159 price tag and a respectable construction and design, it was a software nightmare, with the rudimentary, buggy, and missing features that made it tough to recommend.

We criticized GPS accuracy and software issues that rendered it useless (including changing the language to Urdu during an update). However, we came to the conclusion at the time that these were all fixable components of the experience, and that the watch and battery life were both in good working order.If OnePlus has spent the previous two years improving the software, a low-cost device may be a wise move. Repeating the trick might be a road to redemption for the firm, which has previously demonstrated that it can make something superior looking at an accessible price.
