OnePlus Watch launched back in March 2021 and is also the first wearable from the brand. The smartwatch shipped with an RTOS-based OS, instead of Google WearOS. While the company can’t do anything about it now there might be a surprise in store. Now, noted tipster Max Jambor has reported that the OnePlus Watch 2 is rumoured to come with WearOS 4.
