There was a sprinkling of snow falling onto the runway as I landed at Helsinki, to attend the launch of the OnePlus Watch 2 Nordic Blue Edition. Well, more than a sprinkling: it was enough to cause the train and tram network in Finland's capital to close temporarily – but that wasn't going to get in the way of testing this new wearable.
Over the course of a couple of days, I've worn the OnePlus Watch 2 for a variety of reasons: to monitor heart rate, to record sleep, to engage in biking, hiking, sea swimming and other activities. And y'know what? With this new Nordic Blue Edition design aesthetic, these two days have been enough to change my mind about smartwatches.
