Oppo launches new mobile case that packs UWB tech used in iPhones, AirTags

Ultra-Wideband is a wireless technology that Apple has used on its iPhones and the latest AirTags.

Oppo has launched the world’s first smartphone accessory that uses the Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology -- that is there on a range of the latest iPhone models and the new AirTags -- to let you control smart home devices with just one touch. It is called the Oppo One-Touch Phone Case and it is for the Find X3 Pro. The case obviously gives protection to the phone, but what it also does is give strength to the spatial capabilities of the UWB tech to the phone, so that you no longer need to open apps to control smart appliances. You can do that using a one-touch identity sticker. The technology here is very simple. The one-touch identity stickers are a pair of two round devices with UWB tech and come in a two-colour and two-material water ripple design. You put one on the smart appliance and the other one on the One-Touch Phone Case. The sticker comes with a magnetic design, which is why it is easy to attach to any appliance. There is an indicator light hidden inside the sticker that prompts you to know the power status of the appliance. Since each sticker has a unique identity that you give to an appliance, it will control only that appliance. And with the UWB tech, identification becomes a lot easier.
