Much like Xiaomi’s offering, the OnePlus Band features a 1.1-inch color AMOLED display with silicone straps. The screen has a resolution of 126 x 294 pixels and offers 100% coverage of the P3 wide color gamut. In terms of sensors, the OnePlus Band is equipped with an optical heart-rate sensor, 3-Axis Accelerometer, Gyroscope, and a Spo2 sensor. With these sensors at its disposal, the Band can count your steps and calories burned, monitor your heart rate, track sleep, and measure blood oxygen levels. 13 exercise modes are supported, including outdoor run, indoor run, Fat Burn Run, outdoor walk, cycling, rowing, swimming, Yoga and Cricket.

Other notable features of the OnePlus Band include notifications support, music playback controls, Zen Mode synchronization with select OnePlus phones, Find My Phone, and the ability to mute or reject incoming calls. The tracker is IP68 certified for dust and water-resistance, so it can be used during intensive training and swimming sessions as well.

The OnePlus Band operates on Bluetooth 5.0 (Low Energy) and packs a 100 mAh battery that’s claimed to last up to 14 days on a single charge. The charging is done through a USB-A-powered dongle, and the good part is that you don’t have to dislodge the capsule from the straps.

The band needs to be paired with the companion OnePlus Health app, which you can download on any smartphone running Android 6.0 and above. Besides offering a detailed breakdown of various data collected from the tracker, the app also lets you customize watchfaces and control other features.
