The pros and cons of using OnePlus smartwatches
Thinking about a OnePlus smartwatch before the brand leaves the US? Here are the pros and cons, from battery life and build quality to size and software.
OnePlus smartwatches boast impressive battery life, lasting up to two weeks on a single charge in power saver mode. Unlike competitors, these devices charge rapidly, with a OnePlus Watch 3 reaching 80% charge in just 30 minutes. While not the most popular smartwatches on the market, OnePlus offers affordability without sacrificing quality, featuring large, bright AMOLED screens and Google apps.
Their solid build quality and traditional watch-like design add to their appeal. However, OnePlus smartwatches fall short in certain areas. They lack cellular support, requiring pairing with a phone for functionality, and are only compatible with Android devices. US models do not include ECG trackers or fall detection, as OnePlus failed to obtain FDA approval.
The chunky design and weight of OnePlus watches may not suit everyone, especially those with slimmer wrists. Despite promising continued software support, the availability of assistance may pose a challenge for users.
