| OnePlus Watch is officially released at $ 159 |
OnePlus took a few years but eventually made the jump to the smartwatch game with the new OnePlus watch, which starts at $ 159.
This new watch uses a circular design that resembles regular watches, instead of the rectangular shape that is famous for the Apple Watch and its replicas (such as the Oppo Watch).
The company's stainless steel body measures 46mm and has two buttons on the side (one of them has the OnePlus logo).
The smartwatch is believed to offer silver and black colors, and the size of the OLED screen is 1.39 inches and the resolution of sapphire crystal is 326 pixels per inch.
The watch also includes a version of OnePlus' Warp Charge charging system, which the company promises for a week of battery life after 20 minutes of charging.
The company said: The smartwatch can be used for up to two weeks on a single charge, while the most popular users can use it for up to a week.
In terms of specifications, the OnePlus Watch has 1 GB of RAM, 4 GB of internal storage and built-in speakers.
Wireless, bluetooth, and GPS are included, but there is no cellular option.
Fitness is also an important part of the OnePlus Watch as it offers more than 110 workout modes, built-in GPS, and IP68 water and dust resistance functions.
Additionally, OnePlus Watch has an internal music storage function. Even if the user does not have a mobile phone, up to 500 tracks can be stored on the bluetooth headset for listening during the runtime.
However, OnePlus didn't use Wear OS for the OnePlus Watch. As the company announced before the event, it uses software settings similar to RTOS and comes with a companion app that can be used to call your phone to take calls. And an opinion.
This means things like choosing apps and custom watch faces are roughly limited to what OnePlus can create in-house. At least there are no third-party apps yet.
There are also dozens of background options to choose from, and other custom options can add more style options, giving users a degree of flexibility.
It can also connect to OnePlus TV (if available) as it can be used as a remote control, and the watch can automatically turn off the TV when it detects that you are sleeping.
The company also announced a limited edition cobalt alloy that is two times stronger than stainless steel.
OnePlus announced the Cobalt Limited Edition soon, but pricing has not been revealed yet.
