OnePlus just made charging your watch and phone way less messy

OnePlus has recently released its 43mm OnePlus Watch 3 version, rocking powerful internals in a more compact body. Now, the company is somewhat surprising us with a curious new product that just hit the shelves. And nope, it's not a new smartwatch or a phone, but it's something you may need for your smartwatch and phone. And yep, you guessed it right: we're talking about a new charging cable. Usually, a charging cable won't necessarily make the headlines, but this one is a bit different. It's a cable that charges both your phone and your OnePlus Watch at the same time. Gone are the days of cable messiness all over your desk or nightstand! The new cable is red, which is nothing new, and it's also Supervooc-branded for fast charging. It charges your phone via the typical USB-C, but alongside that, it also features a mid-mounted puck with POGO pins for your OnePlus smartwatch. It will charge your OnePlus Watch 2, Watch 2R, or Watch 3. Meanwhile, if you only charge a OnePlus phone, the cable supports up to 80W fast charging. When you charge both your phone and your smartwatch, the phone gets 67W while the smartwatch gets 10W of power. This interesting cable is available right now for purchase from OnePlus for $29.99. Of course, this is just the cable, so you need your own charging brick to use with it. The cable is also equipped with an E-marker smart chip to protect your phone and smartwatch from overload, and is 120 cm long. So there you go! A dual charging cable. Yep, we've seen dual charging stands for wireless charging, but as you know, wireless charging is slower than traditional wired charging, so OnePlus is being creative and innovative here. If I had OnePlus devices, I'd definitely be equipping myself with this cable, but unfortunately, this one doesn't work with iPhones and Apple Watches, and that's what I'm currently rocking, personally. So, I'm left waiting for Apple to offer something similar. Secure your connection now at a bargain price! We may earn a commission if you make a purchase Check Out The Offer

This new OnePlus cable charges your phone and your smartwatch at the same time

Vlad 17 July 2025 OnePlus Accessories OnePlus has just launched a new charging cable, and normally that wouldn't be news. It's red, just as you'd expect, and it's Supervooc branded, unsurprisingly. But this one is special because it charges both your phone and your OnePlus smartwatch at the same time. The phone charging is accomplished through the standard USB-C, but as you can see, the cable also features a mid-mounted puck with pogo pins. This one will charge your OnePlus Watch 2, Watch 2R, and Watch 3. If you only charge a OnePlus phone, the cable supports up to 80W charging. If you charge both a phone and a smartwatch, the watch gets 10W and the phone 67W. The cable is available now from OnePlus for $29.99 / £27.99 / €27.99. Of course you'll need to provide your own charging brick, as this is just a cable. OnePlus Watch 2 OnePlus Watch 2R OnePlus Watch 3

OnePlus makes Apple Watch owners jealous with novel charging cable

Look, I get it. Charging cables aren't exactly the sexiest product in the tech world and I'd forgive you for rolling your eyes – but OnePlus has introduced a new cable which I can't believe we haven't seen before. It's called, rather unappealingly, the OnePlus 2-in-1 SUPERVOOC Cable. It has a USB-A connector at one end, and a USB-C connector at the other. So far, so like any other boring USB charging cable. Recommended Videos But this 1.2m cable has a bonus feature; a built-in POGO pin connector part way along the distinctive red cord. Why? So you can charge your OnePlus Watch at the same time as your smartphone, without the need for multiple cables or a chunky multi-charging stand. So how does it work? The cable can deliver charging speeds up to 80W when connected to a handset (with a supported charging block), but connect a OnePlus Watch to the cable as well and the wearable will draw 10W, with up to 67W heading to your phone. OnePlus says it's included an 'E-marker smart chip' in the cable to help protect your devices from power surges, which is reassuring to know. You don't get the charging block with the cable though, so you'll need to supply your own with a USB-A port in it. The POGO pin connector supports the OnePlus Watch 2, Watch 2R and the new OnePlus Watch 3 which launched earlier this year. We expect it will also support the smaller, 43mm Watch 3 when it arrives in the US in the coming months. What about the Apple Watch? As OnePlus' smartwatches use a specific size and shaped charging connector, you won't be able to charge wearables from other manufacturers with this cable – and that includes the Apple Watch. Apple and third party manufacturers already offer an array of charging stands for multiple iDevices – you can even get 3-in-1 stands that'll charge your iPhone, AirPods and Apple Watch simultaneously. But these can run over $100 in some cases. These stands also aren't as handy for travel. With the new OnePlus cable, owners of a compatible Watch need to pack just a single cable to charge both their wearable and phone when on the move. That's something Apple Watch owners currently can't do. The concept seems so obvious now I'm looking at it with my own two eyes, but I can't say I'd ever dream up this configuration – so props to OnePlus on this one. It will be interesting to see if rivals take inspiration from this with cables for their own phone-watch combos. The 2-in-1 cable will set you back $29.99 and is available from the OnePlus website now. Via Notebookcheck
