- Pre -ordering now gives you a discount and free earplugs
OnePlus has today announced that its OnePlus Watch 3 launch has been postponed by two months due to a typo on the back.
The new watch that promises the best battery life of any Android watch on the market has an embarrassing mistake on the back that sounds ‘Meda in China’.
The company recently recognized the problem and haunted customers who received one could keep it as a super limited edition or return it for a refund.
Now the company delays the launch by two months, but fortunately there is a silver lining.
“Global Technology Brand OnePlus announced today that the open sale date of the highly expected OnePlus Watch 3, originally set to February 25, 2025, has been postponed until April 2025,” the company told Techradar. OnePlus confirms that this is due to “a minor typographic error identified under the face of the clock, which the company addresses with a new batch.”
The company reiterated that customers who received one with the typo can return it if they wanted and there is a good reason why you might want to.
OnePlus says anyone who pre -books a new batch from February 25th and in the future will save £ 50 in the UK and get a free pair of OnePlus Nord Buds 3 Pro worth £ 79 until the stocks last.
In other territories there are similar incentives. US customers can save $ 30 at checkout and 50% on OnePlus Buds 3.

OnePlus Watch 3 Delay
The two-month delay will undoubtedly come as a disappointment for fans waiting to order what is perhaps the best Android smartwatch in 2025. However, as we have noticed in our OnePlus Watch 3 review, an excellent design and Industry-leading battery life thinks it should be worth waiting for.
The incentives are a nice bonus, so it’s definitely worth checking the OnePlus website where you need to see how much you can save. Pre -orders will continue from February 25 and the company will give a specific date of open sales over time.
This week, the company also confirmed plans to launch a smaller size and support for LTE (cellular connection) outside China later this year.
