    It may have been poor value upon launch, but with the current "bundles" for OnePlus users who do not currently own a smartwatch or TWS ear buds looking to get that Apple "ecosystem" vibe, you can now get said watch in tandem with the OnePlus Buds Pro for just $209.99 USD, or with the Buds Z2 for an absurdly cheap $159.99--which is the normal price for just the watch alone (regular prices are $308.99 and $238.99 respectively). At those prices, you're essentially getting the watch itself for under $100, or you could look at it as if you're getting the Buds Pro for around $50 / the Buds Z2 for free*. I'm not employed by OnePlus and I am not attempting to defend the less-than-stellar performance of the watch itself, but merely offering insight to the current market and how it may now be a more appealing purchase for those who have been wanting to try it out but couldn't justify the regular cost of the device.

        paco2x, 16 Apr 2021Maybe at $50 could be interesting, but at $160 is not worth... moreI will give you $50 and you will make the same watch for me. And let me know if you will need more money to make it done

          Maybe at $50 could be interesting, but at $160 is not worth considering.

            Please collaborate with Garmin,

              Robert, 13 Apr 2021Can I pay with that watch and how?Not right now. The watch has NFC but there's no payment system available.

                Sss, 14 Apr 2021Hi Pls confirm if it is cellular watchIt isn't. You can only make and receive calls with it if it is paired with a phone.

                  Anonymous, 13 Apr 2021I would like to point out the leather strap is not switched... moreI don't need to do research. I live in India. And despite what you mentioned, leather is an extremely commonly manufactured and traded good in India, and available on everything from car seats to bags, belts to what have you. Even if we limit our discussion to just smartwatches, both Apple and Samsung offer genuine leather belts for their smartwatches in India, as do many other brands. So the only logical reason why OnePlus would omit it in India is for cost cutting reasons. That or it's now in the business of virtue signaling and dog whistling.

                    Very poor specifications for such a price, better to buy any AmazFit watch or some Honor stuff instead of this one. Only 15 watchfaces, what a shame! My Honor MagicWatch 2 can install 32 watchfaces. If it was released 2 years ago, it would be a perfect watch to wear, but in today's scenario, this watch stands in no competition with its competitors in the markets.

                      No always on display! What an absolute waste of a watch with great potential. This is an absolute deal breaker. Once you get used to the always on display, you cannot go back to a regular display.

                        Hi
                        Pls confirm if it is cellular watch

                          would be better if Oneplus also add some features like ECG and Blood Pressure

                            Mother Cow, 13 Apr 2021The OnePlus Watch is pointless as it doesn't run on We... moreWearOS is bad, it is bottom of the barrel. it is just an unoptimized buggy mess of an OS and a very unintuitive and unappealing UI to top it off

                              This watch is a Joke in the name of SmartWatch!

                                I'll say again "so many years working on this and teasing consumers to come out with this?". What a disgrace year for Oneplus. First OP9/Pro fails to impress in cameras (that was the main objective) and now this mediocre watch...
                                They should launch a Nord 2 for €249 and a OP9T for €449 if they want to impress and save the year...

                                  The OnePlus Watch is pointless as it doesn't run on Wear OS. No apps makes this as redundant as a £60,000 Patek Philippe watch, for neither watch can be worn to serve their intended need (in the case of a Patek Philippe, no sooner is it on one's wrist, it will become the object of desire by passing pickpocketers).

                                    Not being on a standardized platform such as Wear OS does mean there is no third-party app support on the OnePlus Watch

                                      OnePlus's antics keep getting worse. I can bet that the company will cease to exist in 2-3 years if they continue launching products like this.
