It may have taken its own sweet time, but OnePlus now finally has a fitness band in its product line-up in India. In a way, the OnePlus Band as we see it now is the first of what is expected to be a new line of wearables that may include a smartwatch at one point. It is priced at Rs 2,499 and that pegs it straight into battle against the Xiaomi Mi Smart Band 5, also priced at Rs 2,499. A fitness band makes sense, particularly for OnePlus as the first step into the wearables space. First, the price. Affordability gives the OnePlus Band a much better chance of gaining eyeballs and subsequently consumers, than a smartwatch may have in the first go. And in due course of time, the consumer confidence will help a smartwatch—I’m not saying a smartwatch is on the way, but logically it should be in the pipeline.
