Ahead of the event, Oppo has decided to officially share some details about its upcoming Watch 4 Pro (via Android Headlines).
The Watch 4 Pro will rock a powerful Snapdragon W5 Gen1 chipset, the same one that powers its predecessor, the Oppo Watch 3 Pro. But this time, it’s coupled with the HES2700 Bluetooth chipset, aiming to provide better battery life and smoother performance. The fourth-gen smartwatch from Oppo is boosting 2GB of RAM, twice the capacity of the Watch 3 Pro.

The new Watch 4 Pro is also getting some new health-tracking features, including an 8-channel heart rate sensor, a 16-channel blood oxygen sensor, a new wrist temperature sensor, and an ECG cardiac sensor.
The Oppo Watch 4 Pro flaunts LTPO display tech. LTPO stands for Low-Temperature Polycrystalline Oxide, an OLED display backplane tech developed by Apple and used in its Watch series, including the latest Watch 8 Series.
The Oppo Watch 4 Pro will come with a stainless steel case, which may bring it a step closer to its rival Samsung’s latest Galaxy Watch 6 Classic, which also sports a stainless steel case. Stainless steel is considered much more durable than aluminum, for example, although aluminum is used in some of the best smartwatches.
Even though Oppo gave us a taste of the Watch 4 Pro’s features, we’re still waiting to see the full design, which will be unveiled at the launch event- luckily, not too far away. Its price and whether it will be available globally or not will also become clear after the launch. One thing’s almost certain though: it’s going to feature a rectangular screen again.
