It’s May today. Well, today and the next 30 days, too. But we’re saying “Hello May” with code HELLOMAY at OnePlus to get great deals. For example, you can get the OnePlus Watch 2 — it’s a smartwatch with a special hybrid mode that you’ll need to keep reading to learn about — that you would normally have to pay $300 for. However, by just entering HELLOMAY upon checkout you’ll get it for $50 less, or $250. Tap the button to evaluate the watch yourself or keep reading to see what we liked about this watch and why this is considered one of the best smartwatch deals around today.

Why you should buy the OnePlus Watch 2

When we made our OnePlus Watch 2 review, we reviewed it as a smartwatch with an “excellent battery life and a lovely design.” The casing simply looks nice and the textured band is admittedly a step up from the competition and even the likes of what you’ll see on a standard nylon G-Shock band, as an example. And, of course, the screen — it has a 1.43-inch AMOLED screen with a crisp 466 x 466 display.

The watch works like many fitness trackers, with sleep stage measuring, Sp02 level checking (sorry Apple!), heart rate data, among others, without a subscription and without all of the pageantry of workout challenges and social engagement. You’ll control the watch with two buttons, one being a cosmetically rotating crown. The lack of being able to do something with the rotation initially bummed us out, but it’s the kind of thing that time (and a hot deal) really smooths out.

A unique feature of the OnePlus Watch 2 is its potential for an absurdly long battery life via a special ‘Power Saver’ mode which extends the watch’s 3 days of battery life to 12 days instead. Our review explains the mode perfectly: “When you enable Power Saver mode, you can access all of the watch’s health and fitness functions, the weather app, your alarms and timers, and notifications. It even looks just like normal Wear OS! However, features like the always-on display, Wear OS apps, and Google Assistant do not work.”

To get your OnePlus Watch 2 for just $250 and not the usual $300, all you need to do is tap the button below and enter the code HELLOMAY upon checkout. That code saves you $50 off of your watch, which is a pretty fantastic way to start the month. For alternative ways to track your health, be sure to check out these Fitbit deals.

$90 off the OnePlus Watch 2? Get great battery life on your smartwatch today

The OnePlus Watch 2 resting on its side.

Recently, another writer here detailed how much they love the OnePlus Watch 3’s battery life, and it got me thinking about the watch line and what it has to offer. One thing I discovered that it was currently offering was this deal on the OnePlus Watch 2, where you can get it for $210 instead of $300, saving you $90. The OnePlus Watch 2 is a smartwatch that also has a decent battery life, but there’s a lot more to it than that. So, tap the button below to see the deal for yourself or keep reading to see more about the OnePlus Watch 2’s battery life, what other features it has, and why we think this is one of the best smartwatch deals out there right now.

Why you should buy the OnePlus Watch 2
If, like Mark Jansen, you find that the “batteries tend to suck” on even the best smartwatches, you’re probably still going to love the battery life of the OnePlus Watch 2. In our review of the OnePlus Watch 3, the watch that killed other smartwatches for Jansen, we found that it gave about “four full days of use on a single charge.” The OnePlus Watch 2 has a “100 hours” battery life claim, but what did we really find when using it? Our OnePlus Watch 2 review find that in-the-field usage didn’t quite reach 100 hours, but still said you can “easily expect three (or more) days of use per charge” and highlights the Power Save mode which extends the watch’s battery life by literal days in exchange for not having an always-on display, Wear OS apps, or Google Assistant. If the battery life of the OnePlus Watch 3 is what excites you the most about it, use this deal as a chance to reexplore the OnePlus Watch 2.

By now, the world has had some time to really digest what it means to own an Apple Watch 10, and the reports are looking good.

That takes the 42mm version down to $329 from a high of $399 or the 46mm version down to $359 from a high of $429.

Why you should buy the Apple Watch Series 10
The Apple Watch Series 10 currently sits atop our list of the best smartwatches, with the strong title of “best smartwatch for the iPhone.” That’s pretty cut and dry. But it wasn’t always so simple. Our Apple Watch 10 review plainly calls it “two steps forward, one step back,” and you’re totally right for thinking that’s conflicting.
