Marketing for the new OnePlus Watch 2R styles it as a sporty, long-lasting Wear OS watch for "inspiring an active lifestyle," with a lighter design for "those who value all-day fitness" tracking. I love watches that cater directly to me, but my colleagues who tested the OnePlus Watch 2 bashed its health data as its Achilles' heel. So I decided to test the Watch 2R accuracy for myself.
With the original OnePlus Watch 2, our reviewer Harish complained that it "just isn't reliable at daily step counts or activity tracking," that it misjudged burned calories after workouts, and that its stress data was artificially elevated.
