- Wear OS 3 on Mobvoi smartwatches isn’t coming anytime soon.
- Mobvoi admits the roadblock is its own in-house hardware.
- The company hopes to have the update out in Q3 2023 but wouldn’t commit to anything more specific.
Google announced Wear OS 3.0 in May 2021. Since then it’s landed on two smartwatches from Samsung, the debut smartwatch from Google, and eventually landed on Fossil watches. One notable brand that still hasn’t rolled out the update is Mobvoi.
Unfortunately, Wear OS 3 for Mobvoi watches isn’t coming anytime soon. This is no doubt bad news for Mobvoi fans who have been patiently waiting for this since, well, 2021. It’s also unfortunate to hear since, as early as April, we’ve heard that the update was well on the way.
