It's safe to say OnePlus has been busy launching products like its flagship OnePlus 8 Pro,gay ranchers sex videos the budget-friendly OnePlus Nord, and OnePlus Buds over the past few months. But it looks like it's not done yet. The company is alsoapparently adding a new smartwatch to the list.
First spotted by 91 Mobiles, the company received IMDA certification for a device called a OnePlus Watch, complete with a model number W301GB. Unfortunately, none of the specifications are listed but it's described as a "wearable watch." Of course, it's also unclear whether this detail implies the device will launch in 2020 or if the company plans on waiting it out.
At this point, a smartwatch from OnePlus has been a long time coming. In 2015, company co-founder Carl Pei revealed to Tech Radar that there was a smartwatch in the works, but the company ultimately decided to nix the plan entirely to focus on smartphones instead.

There's also the new Amazon Halo, which keeps track of extensive metrics like body fat percentage and even the tone of your voice.
If OnePlus doeslaunch a smartwatch in 2020, we can't help but wonder if it'll have what it takes to keep from being overshadowed by all the other options currently out there. But we'll need to know some specs before any kind of determination can be made.
