While it isn’t a huge deal, some will, no doubt, want the issue fixed, especially if they’re paying $330 for the watch. Luckily, OnePlus is finally offering some answers for its mistake. The brand posted on X, acknowledging the issue and offering a few solutions for those that are affected.
Keep it as a collector’s item
The brand shared that you can either keep the unique piece of hardware and consider it a ‘super limited edition’ or you can return it without any issues. Of course, those that still want the watch but don’t want the ‘Meda in China’ stamp will be happy to know that new stock is coming.
For the most part, the solutions are pretty much what you’d expect from any brand, taking quick action to remedy a small problem that no one will remember in a month’s time. If you’re curious about the watch, it’s now available on the OnePlus website, and if you don’t care about the mistake, you can score $30 off during its initial offering.
