The iQOO Watch GT 2 is set to debut on October 20 at iQOO’s China event (7pm local time).Teasers show a rectangular, curved-edge case reminiscent of the Apple Watch Series 11. The GT 2 features a 2.07‑inch ultra‑bright AMOLED touchscreen (432×514px) with a claimed peak brightness of 2,400 nits, ensuring visibility even in strong sunlight. The metal frame is machined from aluminium alloy,, and launch colours include Blazing Black and Starry White in glossy or matte finishes, plus a special “Lingyun” edition with a two‑tone braided nylon strap.The standard Black/White models use sporty silicone bands.
iQOO Watch GT 2 Blue OS, Health Tracking, and Battery Life
The Watch GT 2 comes with Vivo’s Blue OS (Blue River OS) with dedicated esports gaming features.
Health and fitness features closely mirror the newly unveiled Vivo Watch GT 2: there are optical heart-rate and SpO₂ sensors, sleep and cycle tracking, and over 100 built‑in sports modes (with an AI workout coach).
Built-in sensors include an accelerometer, gyroscope, geomagnetic compass, ambient-light sensor and Hall sensor.
For connectivity it offers Bluetooth 5.4 and NFC for payments and is expected to support multi‑system GNSS (GPS/GLONASS/Beidou/Galileo). The GT 2 also includes a microphone and speaker for on-watch voice calls – via Bluetooth to a phone or (if offered) on a standalone 4G eSIM model. The 695mAh battery is rated for up to 33 days of use in Bluetooth‑only mode. (With typical always-on display or if 4G is enabled, real-world endurance will be far lower.)
iQOO Watch GT 2 Launch Date, Price, and Availability Details
According to iQOO, the Watch GT 2 will launch in China on October 20 and go on sale immediately.
China pre-orders are already open. So far the company has not announced any international or India launch plans – the GT 2 is the China version of the Vivo Watch GT 2. (For context, the iQOO 15 phone is expected in India around mid-November, but iQOO hasn’t confirmed whether the watch will follow the same schedule.)
In its price range (likely around US$70–100), the Watch GT 2’s battery and display specs stand out sharply. Most competing budget smartwatches offer far less endurance – for example, Amazfit’s new Bip 6 promises about 14 days of typical use (up to 26 days in power-save mode), and Xiaomi’s Mi Watch Revolve Active similarly claims roughly two weeks. (Realme’s latest round AMOLED watch cites up to 20 days).
The iQOO’s 33‑day figure is well above these. Likewise, the GT 2’s 2400-nit panel is among the brightest in the segment (typical AMOLED smartwatch panels top out around 1000–1500 nits).
The GT 2 also includes features missing on many rivals: it has NFC and optional eSIM/LTE support for calls (features usually reserved for premium models), and a sturdy aluminium build rather than all‑plastic. On the other hand, its 2ATM (≈20m) water resistance is modest compared to 5ATM in many fitness‑focused watches.
Overall, iQOO’s Watch GT 2 promises exceptional battery life and an extra‑bright display for the money – pushing the limits of its class even as rivals focus on other trade-offs (like extra sensors or ultra‑low cost).
iQOO Watch GT 2 Specifications (expected)
The iQOO Watch GT 2 is said to feature a 2.07-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 432×514 pixels and up to 2400 nits brightness. It will include built-in GPS, NFC, Bluetooth 5.4, and an optional 4G eSIM for calls. Health tracking covers heart-rate and SpO₂ monitoring, along with sensors like an accelerometer, gyroscope, compass, and light sensor.
The smartwatch will run on Blue OS and offer over 100 sports modes. It comes in an aluminium case with a 695 mAh battery that can last up to 33 days in Bluetooth mode. Colour options at launch are Black, White, and Lingyun Blue.
