@gdir You guys both say 'fast charging', but what does that mean exactly? I used the OPW2 for about 2 weeks before my OPW3 came in the mail and I compared with both chargers. The 2 charger was slower by about 10-15mins on each watch. With my 3 charger the most it ever takes is just shy of an hour, about 58-59 mins, and that's from 0-100%. If there's even 5-10% already on the watch when I snap it on it'll take 40-45 mins. So with using the 2 charger, that would be 1hr-1:15hr.
I know 15 mins doesn't sound like a lot, but I never have to charge more than an hour, and that's huge to me. It's the fastest charging watch with 2nd to longest battery life, while still being the most capable I've ever used. I've used Garmin, Fitbit, and this OPW3 over the last 10 years. (I'm not including Moto 360 watch from 2014, that was a failure...)
I think the OPW2 was pretty ass tbh, but the latest greatest insanely expensive watch having to go power save to get 3 days is pretty funny. But hey, if you like it that's all that matters.
Oneplus watch 2R - one of the most reliable and economical watch out there. I've been using it more than a year and it's dual band gps is very accurate, also battery life is great.
The live data provides pace, time, heart rate zone, heart rate elevation, energy and music control. It provides more rich data in its mobile app - cadence, stride length, GCT balance - which are helpful in improving the running from and heart recovery.
The price is around 12k now. also syncs with strava.

Love me a traditional watch so don't fault you, but there are great SmartWatch options out there.
My OnePlus Watch 2 lasts 4+ days of straight use and charges back to 100% in ~30 minutes.
I've been on the OPW2 for a year and agree these are great, 4+ days on a charge and less than 30 minutes to charge it back to full.
I basically only take it off to shower, but don't need to.
I got the One+ 43mm after much research. Absolutely love it. I can't stand all the huge watches and wanted something a bit smaller / slimmer. It's very full featured and looks good to me. And a hell of a lot cheaper than the Garmins and the like.
My wife has the Garmin Lily 2 which is really small and she loves it. I'm not a fan of the monochrome display though but she's happy with it.
For the record we'll never get a fitbit again - she tried them for years and they always developed weird software glitches after about a year and then became too annoying to keep.
I have a OnePlus Watch Large 46mm (1.5 Inches Display).

I wear it to sleep every day, it works nicely in my opinion. The naps, the precise sleep and wake up times are tracked. In Power Saver mode you won't get the Sleep Score, since it's calculated on the phone and maybe they omitted this code). But once you switch to smart mode it will update. Sometimes i get the lower score but after going back to Sleep app it will update to larger one 🤷🏻♂️. I think [this review](https://www.reddit.com/r/WearOS/comments/1j7dek8/oneplus_watch_3_review_meda_with_care/) is nice to read if you want a summary.
It's not bulky or heavy for me, i don't feel it during sleep at all. That said, i use nylon straps, they are stretchy and comfy.
For calls, i haven't figure out what's wrong, but my Pixel 9 Pro when i accept the call on the watch won't transfer the input audio or mic. Maybe i need to play with some settings to make it work, but weird that i does not work out of the box, but i saw it working on other reviewers.
No LTE version (i think they only have one in China, maybe did not want to go through the licensing process)
Spotify music will show as lowernotification dot immediately and is controllable ;)
I don't get why people get GWC8 or GWU if OnePlus Watch does everything the same for less and better battery. It charges from 10 to 100 in less than an hour. It lasts (AOD on 7:00-20:00, Sleep Tracking, SPO2 deactivated - it's always 98% or so for me, so i don't see the benefit of the red light from time to time) for 4-5 days. In case you need an active WearOS processor (for Home Assistant state reports, HA BLE Tracker, normal pop-up notifications instead of just default vibrations) than it will last 2.5 days with custom watchface or custom watchface complication (that activates Snapdragon and basically deactivates RTOS processor). I had 3 days of hike and used about 50% of battery in Power Saver mode during that time.
That said, if you have problems, the customer support sucks, search the OnePlusWatch subreddit - if some water damage occurs, although you never submerged it in the water, they are not willing to repair ;) In my case Samsung replaced GW2 to GW3 for me, when it died after the pool.
