Unbox the OPPO Watch X3 with a clear first look at the box contents, charger puck, display, build, straps and core specs. In this video I open the box, show the Type-C charging puck, boot the watch and run through the important specs you should know: 1.5" LTPO AMOLED 466×466 (1500 nits) with sapphire glass, titanium alloy frame, 646 mAh battery with 8W charging, Snapdragon W5 Gen 1, 2 GB RAM, 32 GB storage, 22 mm straps and full sensor list. I also compare it to the OnePlus Watch 3/4 since the hardware and software are very similar, and give a practical buying recommendation.

Welcome. In front of me is a OnePlus
0:03
Watch 3, I mean four, I mean Oppo Watch
0:06
X3. Um, it's basically all the same. And
0:10
in this video, I'll be going over
0:11
unboxing of the OPPO watch and give you
0:13
my thoughts and opinions as I go
0:15
throughout and also run down the
0:16
specifications of it.
0:24
So, um, to get started, I do want to
0:26
quickly mention I am in no way sponsored
0:27
by Oppo or OnePlus or anyone else. So,
0:30
what I'm about to say here is just
0:31
strictly my own opinion and it's
0:33
uninfluenced by anyone. Now, uh, the
0:37
little gag at the beginning uh, might be
0:40
a gag, but it is actually true. Um, this
0:43
watch is basically the same exact thing
0:46
as the OPPO, sorry, Oppo, OnePlus Watch
0:49
4 and three as they are basically the
0:52
same freaking thing. Uh, I guess OnePlus
0:55
or the parent company of OnePlus and
0:57
Oppo uh took a look at these and
0:59
decided, you know what, if it ain't
1:00
broke, don't fix it. I I mean it's a
1:04
solid kind of logic, but uh a company
1:08
that that claims that they don't put
1:10
chargers with the phones because
1:12
we are saving the environment. This sure
1:15
[ __ ] doesn't seem like a saving of
1:16
environment when you could have just
1:18
done an update to your other [ __ ]
1:21
watch that is the exact same [ __ ]
1:23
thing from 3 years ago.
1:27
So yeah, uh it's a great watch, which
1:30
you might not kind of guess by me being
1:32
super negative about it, but I'm not
1:34
negative towards the watch. I'm just
1:36
negative towards the [ __ ] marketing.
1:39
Uh the watch itself is pretty good, but
1:41
if you want pretty good, you can save
1:42
less or save more money and buy the
1:44
OnePlus Watch 3 or 4, and it's going to
1:47
be the same exact thing.
1:50
Um in any case, inside here, we get a
1:53
charger. It's a type uh C to type A
1:56
cable with this cool little puck. I do
1:59
want to say I do like these. Um we go.
2:02
Just trying to figure out which way do I
2:04
want to push it out of here.
2:06
There we go. So, these little pucks have
2:09
a type-C port, which means this takes
2:11
very little space and also doesn't have
2:13
a cable to clutter your pockets or
2:15
anything like that. And if you ever need
2:16
to watch watch charge this, you can put
2:19
this in your pocket without much of a
2:21
problem without needing to even bring a
2:22
cable because you can just plug it in
2:24
through type-C. And furthermore, most
2:28
phones, unlike this cable, will come
2:30
with a type-C to type-C cable, which
2:32
means you can plug a type-C cable to
2:34
this and a type-C to your phone
2:37
and then just charge it normally with a
2:39
with a phone wherever you are. So,
2:43
that's kind of cool. Now, uh, let's take
2:46
a look at the watch itself. So, I'm
2:47
going to boot it up. Hopefully, one of
2:49
these buttons turns it on.
2:53
There we go. And quick rundown the
2:56
specifications. Let's start over with
2:57
the display. So the display right here
2:59
is a 1 and 1/2 in in size LTPO AMOLED
3:03
display with a peak brightness of,500
3:05
nits and a resolution of 466x
3:08
466 pixels with a pixel density of 310
3:12
pixels per inch covered with importantly
3:15
sapphire crystal glass which is
3:17
phenomenal.
3:19
Now for people that don't know why that
3:21
is phenomenal is because sapphire if I
3:24
do this yeah I don't need to worry about
3:26
it scratching. Uh, I actually might
3:27
worry more about the table getting
3:29
scratched from this rather than this
3:31
getting scratched from a table. [ __ ] if
3:33
I scrape this over a concrete wall, I
3:36
might just check on that concrete wall
3:37
if it's all right. Um, so yeah, Sapphire
3:40
is a phenomenal uh protection for your
3:44
watch as it's moronically durable. And
3:48
uh I'm again kind of joking about this,
3:51
but it's honestly based in reality. I
3:54
had the
3:56
Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 and that also had
3:59
a sapphire glass and uh yeah, I scraped
4:01
that thing over concrete walls and door
4:04
frames and other things just usually
4:05
where your hand hit something, right?
4:08
It never even got a micro scratch. That
4:10
display is as pristine as when it came
4:12
out of the box. Uh the frame on the
4:15
other hand side was not on my in my
4:17
case. Uh but here this is going to do a
4:20
little bit better because unlike Galaxy
4:22
watch this is rocking a titanium alloy
4:25
frame and a plastic back. Um but in the
4:29
case the durability right here is superb
4:31
as it's titanium and sapphire. So two of
4:34
the best kind of things you can get on a
4:36
watch. So uh you might be wondering
4:39
that's all nice and praise. Uh how does
4:41
it differ? It doesn't differ from the
4:43
Oppo Watch 4, sorry, OnePlus Watch 4.
4:46
And it does differ a tiny bit from the
4:49
OnePlus Watch 3 as the OnePlus Watch 3
4:52
has a stainless steel frame instead of
4:53
the titanium one. So, there's a little
4:55
bit of a
4:57
step down, but we're talking about a
4:59
device that came out two years ago
5:01
opposed to this like coming coming out
5:03
now. And the OnePlus that came out half
5:05
a year ago also has a titanium frame and
5:09
uh also has the same display.
5:12
It also has the same build, the same
5:14
strap, the same size, the same display,
5:17
the same controls. It literally it's the
5:19
same thing. It just has a different OS.
5:23
Uh, and talking about the OS, even
5:25
though technically they're called
5:26
differently, this is color OS while
5:29
OnePlus rocks the Oxygen OS Watch 8. Uh,
5:34
yeah, they're basically the same. The
5:37
only difference is in the name, but in
5:39
usability, they appear to be carbon copy
5:42
of each other. And it makes sense
5:44
considering these two companies are
5:46
owned by the same parent company. Now,
5:49
when it comes down to corporate greed,
5:50
you can be sure as [ __ ] they're not
5:52
going to be divulging more resources to
5:54
different company to make it look
5:56
different,
5:57
which would also mean that they need to
5:59
pay more money while make less. Hence
6:03
why we have the two different companies
6:05
making the same freaking product.
6:07
Anyway, now if we took a look at take a
6:10
look at the internals, it's all the same
6:13
again. We have 646 mAh battery, 8 watts
6:16
charging. Same as before on the OnePlus
6:18
watch. We have 2 GB RAM. Uh Snapdragon
6:22
W5 Gen1 processor. Again, same like
6:26
before with OnePlus watch, four and
6:29
three. And we get 2 gigs of RAM and 300
6:32
uh 300 uh 32 GB of built-in storage just
6:35
like the other watches as well from
6:38
OnePlus.
6:39
Now
6:44
there's not much more to really talk
6:46
about this watch. We have everything
6:47
that you'd accept expect from a watch
6:50
like this. We have accelerometer, gyro,
6:52
barometer, compass, heartway meter,
6:54
blockation, a thermometer for skin
6:56
temperature and a price tag of 300 about
7:00
30 euros. Um, it's a premium watch uh
7:03
all things considered and it's built
7:05
like it's supposed to be for that price.
7:08
Um, it has a great OS, great battery
7:10
life as this is one of the things that
7:12
these companies actually exceed at
7:14
meaning OnePlus and Oppo.
7:17
And uh like I if you were thinking about
7:20
buying OnePlus watch but decided to
7:23
wait, you can go for this one. It's it's
7:26
it's literally the same thing. Um one
7:29
thing that I also want to point out as a
7:31
positive right here, uh regardless which
7:33
one you go for as they are all the same,
7:35
the straps, I do want to give them
7:36
praise. These straps are absolutely
7:38
phenomenal. These are superb. They are
7:43
super soft and malleable. They don't
7:45
stretch too much. The silicone used has
7:48
this amazing feel to it, which I don't
7:51
want to like that's not usually what I
7:53
would say. So, it's soft yet it doesn't
7:55
have this like very cheap uh hard kind
7:58
of almost plastic like feel to it uh
8:02
with a weightless design. This has some
8:04
heft to it. It honestly, if not for the
8:07
texture, I it kind of gives me a vibe of
8:09
like almost a leather uh like a thick
8:12
leather height almost of a strap. Um,
8:16
but it is silicone and it has this weird
8:18
kind of soft texture to it. Uh, it's a
8:21
fantastic strap that it feels absolutely
8:23
like great on wrist. It's super nice to
8:26
wear. Uh, but if you don't like it, you
8:29
can just swap it out with any other
8:30
strap. I believe these are 22 mm. Uh, I
8:34
actually let me just actually it's
8:36
written right here. Yep. 22 mm. I it's
8:40
going to be barely visible, but it is 22
8:42
mil, meaning that you can grab any other
8:44
strap that you buy from whatever the
8:46
hell you want. As long as it's 22 mm,
8:48
it's going to clip on here, no problem.
8:50
And you can just buy them dirt cheap on
8:53
AliExpress or anywhere else that you
8:54
want. Uh so that is super nice,
8:56
versatile approach right here with the
9:00
straps being changeable without having
9:02
some proprietary [ __ ] like for
9:04
instance, uh Apple watches do.
9:08
So anyway, uh that's about it. It's a
9:10
fantastic watch. No, regardless of me
9:12
just kind of crapping all over the
9:13
design kind of approach of this. It it
9:17
OnePlus watch was great. This is great.
9:20
It's just as simple as it is. It's just
9:22
to me funny that, you know, companies
9:24
that claim that they're saving the
9:26
environment have the audacity to make
9:27
the same thing three times in a row and
9:30
then uh and then still have the audacity
9:33
to tell you, "Yeah, we're not going to
9:34
give you a charger in a box because
9:35
we're saving the environment, but we
9:37
made the same [ __ ] with lithium ion
9:39
batteries inside." Uh, and actually,
9:41
sorry, this might be actually carbon
9:42
silicon batteries battery, let's be
9:45
honest. uh and you know wasted a send
9:48
for this just so we can sell you the
9:50
same [ __ ] again. Uh that's what pisses
9:53
me off. Not really the device itself,
9:54
it's the company's logic of trying to
9:56
cost cut uh just try to feed you shovel
9:59
fulls of [ __ ] down your throat, right?
10:01
And then uh hope that you will swallow
10:03
it without ever asking questions, right?
10:05
That's where I have a problem. So
10:07
anyway, if you want to save money, you
10:09
could potentially go with the stainless
10:11
steel version of what this basically is
10:14
and get the OnePlus Watch 3 or maybe if
10:17
OnePlus Watch 4 is cheaper than this,
10:19
then go for that one as that is the
10:21
exact same thing. Uh but anyway, with
10:24
that being said, that's about everything
10:26
that I have to say about this. So if you
