OnePlus Watch review - Don’t settle for this one - Android

By OnePlus
Positives

Inoffensive design
Great battery life
Quick to grab GPS lock
Very reliable connectivity
Fast charging
Can make phone calls

Negatives

OnePlus Health app a big letdown
Limited integration with external services
Too expensive for the feature set
No smart assistant functionality

Bottom Line

The OnePlus Watch is the company's second effort to break into the wearables space, yet it's not quite coming in guns ablaze. The core hardware feature set is perfectly capable, though the abundant competition offering much of the same for less.
