OnePlus arrived on the tech scene in 2014 with the launch of the OnePlus One. The Android phone attracted a lot of attention by offering flagship-level specs at a more affordable price, helping the brand build an early reputation for value. After a good reception, the Chinese company, which operates as a sub-brand of the technology company Oppo, returned the following year with the OnePlus 2, building on the success of the original.
OnePlus has now launched more than a dozen phones and remains best known for this category, although in 2018 it expanded into other gadgets with the launch of wireless earbuds. Over time, it expanded to a broader ecosystem of devices, giving OnePlus a stronger presence beyond smartphones. Today, the company sells not only wireless handsets and earphones, but also smartwatches, tablets and various accessories. Let’s leave OnePlus smartphones aside for a moment and take a look at the company’s other best gadgets that might be worth your money.
OnePlus Watch 3
Although OnePlus has announced the OnePlus Watch 4, its availability and official release date are still unclear. The OnePlus Watch 3, however, received brilliant reviews when it launched in 2025 and remains an exceptional smartwatch for Android users today. For starters, the OnePlus Watch 3 offers up to five days of battery life in Smart mode (16 days in Power Saver mode), which is considerably more than the Apple Watch, which typically requires charging daily. As you’d expect with any smartwatch worth its salt, the device also records a range of health metrics, including heart rate, blood oxygen, wrist temperature, sleep quality, and wellness-related data.
A nice touch is the 60-second health logging feature that quickly gathers many of these measurements. The OnePlus Watch 3 also offers improved dual-frequency GPS, a bright display, and a dual-chip setup that helps keep it fast and efficient. Importantly, the device also has broad visual appeal thanks to its circular design, unlike the more polarizing square look of the Apple Watch. The OnePlus Watch 3 starts at $349.99 in the US for the 46mm version, while the 43mm version costs $299.99.
OnePlus Buds Pro 3
If you’re in the market for a pair of wireless earbuds, you might want to take a look at the OnePlus Buds Pro 3. Launched as flagship wireless earbuds, they offer dual drivers, adaptive noise cancellation, spatial audio with head tracking, and up to 43 hours of battery life with the charging case, which itself can be charged wirelessly. As an added bonus, they also offer AI translation with a compatible OnePlus smartphone, potentially making them more useful in everyday situations beyond the usual audio features.
Reviews of the headphones (launching in 2024) from industry experts like Sound Guys have been largely positive thanks to their detailed sound, capable ANC, and competitive price of $179.99 (at the time of writing, listed for a very reasonable $129.99). Comparing them to another pair of premium earbuds like Sony’s $278 WF-1000XM5, the OnePlus Buds Pro 3 arguably offer better value due to their dual-driver setup, greater water resistance, longer battery life, and a more competitive price, although Sony’s earbuds are likely to edge them out on ANC performance, with some users likely preferring their soundstage as well. wider.
OnePlus Pad Go 2
The OnePlus Pad Go 2 was launched in December 2025 as a more affordable media tablet in the OnePlus lineup. The OnePlus Pad Go 2 comes with a large 12.1-inch display (smaller tablets are available!) with a 120Hz refresh rate, a 10,050mAh battery, 33W charging, four speakers, pen support, and OxygenOS 16 with Open Canvas multitasking and AI tools. While it’s not as advanced as, say, Apple’s high-end iPad Pro, the Pad Go 2’s extensive feature list makes it an attractive option for activities like streaming, note-taking, and casual productivity.
Although it was well received by mainstream reviewers, Mashable noted that the device fell short when it came to audio output, with its speakers making it feel more mid-range than flagship. Overall, the $399 OnePlus Pad Go 2 looks like a very capable model that, by most accounts, gets the basics right. That big screen is a big plus, with its decent battery life, pen support, and clean software, but don’t expect high-end performance for things like heavy gaming or demanding creative work.
OnePlus buds 4
Slightly more affordable than the Buds Pro 3 and newer, the OnePlus Buds 4 offer a number of attractive features and have garnered solid reviews as well. Launching in July 2025, the Buds 4 feature a dual-speaker setup, with an 11mm woofer and 6mm tweeter designed to deliver decent bass as well as clearer highs. Adaptive ANC is also part of the package, along with the same AI translation functionality (with compatible OnePlus smartphones) that you get with the more premium Buds Pro 3.
The Buds 4 offer up to 11 hours of playback on a single charge and up to 45 hours with the case, plus an IP55 rating for sweat and rain resistance. These headphones were launched at a price of $129.99, but can be seen for $99.99, as of the time of writing. Independent reviewers like Sound Guys have generally given the mid-range Buds 4 a thumbs up, so if cost matters and you’re wondering which to choose between these and the Buds Pro 3, then you know the answer.
