The OnePlus Watch 2, one of our top Android smartwatch picks, hits its best price

The Google Pixel Watch 3 is here while the new Apple Watch Series 10 is on its way, but they’re not for everybody. Luckily, there is a wide range of excellent Android smartwatches on the market, and today, one of our favorites — the OnePlus Watch 2 — is on sale for an all-time low of $229.99 ($70 off) through September 22nd directly from OnePlus. To get the deal, you’ll have to clip the coupon, which you can find when you click on “Check out all offers” and then “Claim.” OnePlus is also throwing in your choice of either a free OnePlus Watch 2 Strap (valued at up to $39.99) or the OnePlus Watch 2 Charging Base (regularly $29.99). 

If you’re looking for a WearOS alternative to the Pixel Watch 3 or Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 Classic, the OnePlus Watch 2 is our top pick. It runs on Wear OS 4, rendering it the only third-party wearable to run on this latest version. It also comes with Google Assistant built-in, which is hard to find in a third-party wearable, and grants access to the Google Play Store. Aside from software, the OnePlus Watch 2 also has other things going for it. It offers all the standard health features you need, plus dual-frequency GPS for navigating challenging environments like crowded cities. For a flagship wearable, it also offers an incredibly long battery life, lasting us nearly four days with regular use.

There are some tradeoffs you’ll make if you choose this smartwatch over Google and Samsung watches, though. It only comes in one size — 46mm — and lacks features like LTE connectivity, fall detection, and EKGs. But if you don’t mind those sacrifices, the OnePlus Watch 2 offers a lot of value for its price.
