We have to say that in terms of design, there’s really not much to shout about. It looks kind of plain and a little bit boring, although those aren’t exactly bad things if you’re looking for a wearable that’s a bit more discreet. The watch in the images shows a circular watch face and a silicone strap, both of which are par for the course, although we have to wonder if OnePlus has plans for other materials for the band, like stainless steel, nylon, and so on.

However, it should be noted that OnePlus CEO Pete Lau did tease that the OnePlus Watch would feature a premium material that has never been used in a smartwatch before. We can only assume he is referring to the actual watch itself, not the band, so it will be interesting to see what kind of material it will be made of.
The OnePlus Watch will be the first wearable from the company and will be officially announced on the 23rd of March, so check back with us in the coming days for more updates.
