I wouldn’t call that a “budget” ecosystem at all. The phone alone is priced at $500 and has a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 lol

Many companies reserve certain features for use only within their compatible product range (looks at Samsung for their gatekeeping of Galaxy Watch features to Samsung phones only; heck even TWS manufacturers sometimes bake a feature or two exclusively for use with their phone series only). I wonder if Oneplus offerings are completely platform agnostic or not.

I bought a OnePlus Watch as a gift for someone because it has feature parity across all smartphones. Looked at the Galaxy Watch first and noped the fuck out because of the Samsung exclusive features. Idk why manufacturers do that because they are losing potential customers.

I don’t care about ecosystems, they are just a fancy word for vendor lock in

SeikoAlpinist OP ,

I’m not sure there’s much of an ecosystem. It’s just three products and I don’t think the guy even looked at the budget tablet.

Usually you end up with products from the same manufacturer because there is a package deal or promotion sale. Which is the case now for their earbuds.

Yeah, no. I want too choose my gadgets. I want to pair a garmin watch with sennheiser headphones, running my music from a sony phone or a fairphone. That’s what standards are for.

It’s been a long time since OnePlus could claim to be a budget brand. That ship sailed a long time ago.
