A OnePlus fitness tracker is on the way – this is what we know

2021 has barely climbed out of bed, but the equipment machine never stops chattering. And today? Well, it coughed up the impending arrival of a OnePlus fitness tracker:

If that’s true – and, let’s be honest, it looks like it is – it’s going to be OnePlus’ first fitness tracker. So, what will it be called? Well, Android Central believes that it will be known as the OnePlus Band, a name to which I give a solid 7/10. Descriptive, sure. Exciting? Less so.

There is not much (read: any) official information about the OnePlus fitness tracker, but fortunately there were sweets who did God’s work and gave all the nice details. In terms of specifications, Twitter user Ishan Agarwal got a lot of information, which you can see here:

That, friends, is a wonderful range of specifications for a fitness tracker, but do you know what’s even better? The rumored price ranges from around $ 35 – a similar price to Xiaomi’s Mi Band 5, a market segment that the OnePlus fitness tracker naturally targets.

Aesthetically, we also have a strong indication of what the OnePlus Band will look like:

Yes, the OnePlus Fitness Tracker looks like any other fitness tracker, but what would you expect for $ 35? Fireworks? A holographic exhibit? Wheels? It’s a bit of a functional technology that can do a great job.

As for the release date, there is no official announcement. Agarwal believes it will launch in India on January 11, and other experts predict a more global release in the first quarter of this year. All we know for sure is that the OnePlus fitness tracker will make an already competitive segment busier than ever before.
