OnePlus Watch unboxing: a complete smartwatch with 2-week battery life for $159! By Mobile Tech Podcast

Hey folks welcome to another day another unboxing and yes, it is the OnePlus watch. Taxa, look at that. That is cool. So let's take a look at the back real, quick and here's some info. So there you go all right. Let's open her up, it's a little hard, nothing in here, here's the watch, oh nice and then there's a divider with a convenient handle, and then we have some literature and things in here.

I presume: let's have a look. Oh, very long, literature, let's get started. It says one plus watch. So, let's see if I can uh put this into perspective for you all here we go it's in multiple languages, as you can see, there are some illustrations and in the back looks there's like there's a little more so yeah. That's one thing: let's take a look at the rest, real, quick warranty and safety.

It's all just text. We don't care, and then we have another little thing here, and I bet you that's the cord. So I think this is it for the box yeah. So the cord here has Pogo pins. So this is not a wireless charging system that OnePlus is using here they're using Pogo pins on this stand, so that's all right.

Hopefully they last I've had some issues with some Pogo pins corroding, at least on the watch side before so USB-C, and this supports uh fast charging of some kind. Obviously I don't think it's quite as fast as what they do with their smartphones right. So that's pretty exciting. Let's take a look at the watch real quick. So here we go.

There is an app list, main dial button and a function key power key here, and this is what the back looks like, and I think I want to take this off. Don't you, let's see all right that worked out pretty well easy-peasy? So the first thing you notice is that the edges here around right like here, it's an it's interesting, and it does use standard watch bands. So you can use any watch band. You want you just pull on these little clips here. Remove them and you put anything you want.

It comes with a very Apple Watch, inspired silicone band, and this is obviously the black model see all the sensors here and see if I can turn it on by pushing a button or two here we go OnePlus. So this is a 46 millimeter watch in diameter, 4.6 centimeters it has a 1.39 inch, OLED display it's a 4 5 four by four five, four, essentially and uh yeah. That's not bad got some sort of st m32 based arm chip, four gigs of ram, which is used for storing music. You can actually connect this Bluetooth directly to your OnePlus buds or any Bluetooth, earbuds and stream music directly from the watch. If the phone isn't around, of course, Bluetooth, 5, GPS, NFC and you immediately notice.

This is not running android wear. This is running a custom OS right. So that's actually pretty interesting. A lot of chinese-made watches have some sort of real-time custom, OS, and you're. Going to say why not android wear well, because the advantage here is that this is a two-week battery life.

It's just like the Huawei watch, gt2 pro that I wear or like this Huawei band that I'm wearing right here. These things last forever because they run a very lightweight OS, that's much, much more efficient than android wear. Of course, you don't get apps, but you get a lot of functionality. Let's see if I can set this up, real quick, probably won't be able to there you go, so it wants me to download the OnePlus health app and pair it from there. So this does not support iOS iPhones.

Basically, it does support OnePlus phones and, of course, any android phone with this app right. So it's not just OnePlus phones. Some functionalities include sleep tracking, continuous heart rate, monitoring, continuous oxygen level, monitoring automatic sleep detection. Basically, a lot of things understand, of course, step counting. It does automatic workout detections had 110 different workouts supports GPS tracking during your workouts.

If your phone isn't around it's ip68 water resistant up to five atmospheres, so you can swim with. It obviously has swim detection. You know all the workout stuff, so yeah notifications are supported. Of course, you can also take phone calls with the watch as a speaker and a microphone and yeah it's a pretty complete package as it were, but you don't get like specifically apps like you would do in wars, or an Apple Watch. Oh, and before I forget it does have a 402 William hour battery in here.

So you know charging for 20 minutes with these Pogo pins through that dock. That I showed you this thing here will give you a week of battery life 20 minutes. So a full charge will give you typically about two weeks if you have used and do a lot of exercise a week, that's what OnePlus claims so, of course, we'll find out in our review right. So yeah stay tuned for my review I'll, be reviewing this for hot hardware and, of course, I'll be discussing this on the podcast mobiletechpodcast. com.

So that's it folks, quick! Look at the OnePlus watch! You can see the buttons here and giving you a quick tour of everything, very nice looking very classic design, but also not too over the top like it's just generically. Classic, I guess, is what I would call it all right. That's it folks stay tuned I'll, have more videos soon like subscribe comment below tell me, would you pick this watch over say a Huawei watch gt2 pro, or would you go android wear instead, or would you go like Apple Watch if you're an iPhone user, let me know and yeah subscribe to the podcast.
