The OnePlus Band and OnePlus Watch's features just became much clearer, thanks to the early appearance of their companion OnePlus Health app.

The new wearables' heart rate, sleep monitoring and route tracking abilities are all apparently confirmed by the discovery of the app. That'southward despite the fact that neither the OnePlus Band or Scout are due to release for months. Based on the leaks and rumored low prices, OnePlus should take formidable options to undercut Fitbit's wearables.

Other screenshots institute past Android Law give a pocket-sized glimpse of the OnePlus Ring, plus some customization options for its face.

This app bears a strong resemblance to the HeyTap Wellness app from Oppo, and that'south to be expected. Oppo and OnePlus are sis companies under BBK Electronics, and accept shared enough of avails in the by, notably including the OnePlus 8T'due south signature 65W charging.

Based on other recent rumors, nosotros're expecting the OnePlus Band to launch alongside the OnePlus nine telephone series. The band is said to have a price of $twoscore, which is certainly cheap considering it's manifestly capable of SpO2 blood oxygen monitoring and sleep tracking, while lasting upwards to two weeks on a charge.

Fitbit remains the biggest name in fitness trackers, only its wearables are quite costly. The Fitbit Accuse 4 for case, our current top pick for fettle trackers, costs $150. The cheaper Inspire two meanwhile is around $100 but lacks SpO2 monitoring. The closest option is the original Fitbit Inspire, but that doesn't have heart rate monitoring either. By offering and so much tech for so petty coin, OnePlus could cause a large upset in the market when the Band launches.

The OnePlus Watch on the other hand doesn't seem to have such physical details, beyond it having a circular face and Google Habiliment OS equally its operating system. Information technology could announced at the aforementioned fourth dimension as the Ring, or possibly get its ain launch later in the year aslope a new OnePlus Nord or the inevitable OnePlus 9T, but at that place are no specific rumors correct now.
