If recently OnePlus confirmed that they were working on the design of a watch, something highly demanded by many users who are fans of the brand, now we have some data and a first image of what would be the OnePlus activity bracelet . And it will not surprise you, but it may be what you were looking for.
OnePlus and its rival for the Xiaomi Mi Band
First a smart watch and now an activity bracelet like the Mi Band? What if there is no clock and what arrives is just that? We suppose that these are some of the questions that you could easily be asking yourself and it is totally understandable, but until OnePlus itself confirms the launch of each of the products we fear that everything will always be surrounded by the halo of leaks and rumor mill, although there are many possibilities that both things happen and we explain why and what we know.
To begin with, it must be remembered that OnePlus is a brand that belongs to the BBK Electronics group . That means that it is under the same umbrella of Oppo and Vivo, two companies that are also dedicated to all this of smartphones, smart watches, quantification bracelets, etc. What’s more, the first one already has this type of proposal in the market and both the Oppo Watch and the Oppo Band are interesting devices within their sector.
Design of the OPPO Band, with which the future OnePlus bracelet could share many details
Therefore, that OnePlus is going to release both a watch and a bracelet is something that should not surprise anyone since the base of both products already have it. All they would have to do is finish outlining some details that can affect when differentiating themselves from the rest such as the design itself (which is not going to break the mold, but they can always give it a personal touch) and the characteristics at the level of software where with Oxygen OS on phones they have always known how to do it very well.
In this way and with a little more perspective of why having both a smart watch and a OnePlus activity bracelet is not crazy, let’s talk about what we hope to see with this new bracelet that has already been shown very lightly in networks. social by the brand itself.
At first it would have a design similar to what we already consider normal for a quantifying bracelet. That is, a silicone band where a small elongated capsule would be integrated where it would display the information and integrate the different sensors that it would have.
On this subject of sensors and characteristics, the OnePlus bracelet would have a 1.1-inch AMOLED screen , options for monitoring sleep, heart rate and SpO2 (blood oxygen saturation). This would allow it to cover a total of 13 sports modes or activities and would be prepared to withstand both water and dust thanks to its IP68 protection level.
Everything else, when it comes to price, color combinations for its silicone bands and other small details are things that we will have to wait to know officially. Although @stufflistings has published some tweets with supposed promotional images of this one.
With these images we can not only get a better idea of what they are going to launch but also think that it is something imminent. So, if you are interested, there is little left to know all the details and the price, something important if you want to be competitive against Xiaomi and its popular Mi Band 5.
