Verdict

The OnePlus Band is a budget-friendly fitness tracker featuring a vibrant 1.1-inch AMOLED touchscreen with a 126x294 resolution and a 100mAh battery offering up to 14 days of life. Key characteristics include 5ATM and IP68 water/dust resistance, 13 dedicated exercise modes, and comprehensive health monitoring via an optical heart rate sensor, 3-axis accelerometer, gyroscope, and a dedicated SpO2 sensor for blood oxygen tracking. Main pros are its lightweight, comfortable design, accurate sleep and SpO2 monitoring, and a highly responsive, bright display. However, notable cons include a proprietary charging cradle that requires removing the tracker from the strap, lack of auto-brightness, and real-world battery life often falling significantly short of the 14-day claim during intensive use.
