OnePlus likes to make use of a sluggish tease schedule to disclose details about its new gadgets, however this has seemingly backfired within the case of the upcoming Nord Watch.

On its Indian-region web site (opens in new tab), the corporate arrange a web page for this anticipated funds smartwatch. This web page consists of some teases for the watch, in addition to a schedule of once we can anticipate future ones, with September 24 pegged for show refresh price data and September 26 promising health data.

Nevertheless, one different side of the web site has given away the sport early. That is as a result of the web page hosts a quiz, letting you guess the specs for the gadget with a view to win the watch… and one explicit query makes the solutions fully clear.

The fifth and closing query of the quiz asks you “What are the foremost options of the OnePlus Nord Watch?”, with every of the 4 attainable solutions itemizing sure mixtures of specs for the watch. Hopefully, when the gadget launches, we’ll discover out which is right.

Proper?

Flawed. You do not have to be Sherlock to infer which is right. That is as a result of OnePlus has already confirmed that the gadget can have a 45mm AMOLED display screen, and solely one of many multi-choice solutions has this as an choice.

So now, by this reply, we will discover out different items of details about the OnePlus Nord Watch. It’s going to have a 60Hz refresh price, 105 health modes, ‘Ladies Well being Characteristic’ (an oddly medical approach of referring to cycle monitoring), and a 10-day battery life.

Evaluation: an odd self-leak

This data was supposed to come back out over per week of teases, however this multi-choice query has spilled the beans.

That steals the thunder from OnePlus’ advertising push, however we’re okay with that – the corporate’s behavior of doing this may be tiring for followers who simply wish to discover out about an upcoming product.

There are nonetheless issues we have to study concerning the gadget. What are these 105 health modes? What’s the strap made from? How a lot will it value? However that is all data that can seemingly be reserved for a launch occasion and is not the fare we might usually hear in OnePlus’ tease cycle.

Possibly the corporate will change up its pre-launch hype machine to present us some data that it hasn’t already by accident confirmed but it surely’s extra seemingly that the OnePlus will merely spend per week confirming specs it is already informed us about. In that case, it might be value ignoring the following week of stories from the model.

Oh nicely, if the OnePlus Nord Watch finally ends up on our record of one of the best low cost smartwatches, it’s going to have been value it ultimately.
