The smartwatch is crafted with an aluminum case that's rated as being 25% lighter than the stainless steel version of the brand's Watch 2 model. The wearable is rated to provide 100-hours of use per charge, while the incorporation of the BES2700 MCU Efficiency chipset and dual-frequency GPS maximizes connectivity and productivity. The OnePlus Watch 2R smartwatch is priced starting at $229.99 and is available now for preorder from the brand in two color options including Gunmetal Gray and Forest Green. The wearable responds to increased calls amongst consumers for higher value tech products with a cost-conscious profile.
