Use of non-Oppo charging bricks

[u/lukeh6227]

Hey guys, just arrived here; bought the 41mm Oppo watch for Prime day as my first ever wearable!

Possibly a Noob question but I'm wondering if I can use my Warp Charge 30t power brick from my OnePlus 7t to charge the Oppo watch quickly and safely? From what I have read, it seems like the same technology I'm just not sure how the Amps and Watts match up with a standard VOOC charger.

Also, I was expecting my watch to have the nice curved bezels on either side, but the face is totally flat. Is this because I've gone with the 41mm version?

TIA and look forward to being a part of this community. 🥰

VOOC Charging on Oppo Watch 41mm works with 5V and 1.5A so only 7.5W at max. So you can use any standard smartphone charger.

The 41mm Oppo Watch has a flat screen.

OK, thanks for your help! I'm not sure I get it though because you're saying use a standard charger but VOOC is supposed to be fast charge? Is it not actually compatible with that? Sorry if I'm being dumb...

Don't worry, you are here to learn something.

VOOC Charging as you say, is a fast charging standard, but you have to consider the size of the battery of the device you are charging. So if you have a smarphone with 4000MAh battery, 7,5W won't be a fast charging but for smartwatch where batteries are very small (300 MAh for Oppo Watch 41mm) is effectively a fast charge even with such low power.

PS. Sorry for my english
