Critical reception

Danni Fromm from laut.de rated the album harshly, criticizing The One as a rushed, formulaic DSDS product that wastes Aneta Sablik’s considerable vocal talent on soulless, interchangeable dance-pop productions. She argued that despite Sablik being one of the few deserving winners with genuine singing ability, the album buries her voice beneath plastic beats, clichéd choruses, and uninspired songwriting created solely for quick commercial exploitation. Fromm concluded that Sablik's potential "to be lions" was squandered on music that ultimately feels "completely irrelevant."

Chart performance The One achieved moderate commercial success in German-speaking Europe following Sablik's victory on Deutschland sucht den Superstar. The album peaked at number 11 on the German Albums Chart, while also reaching number 14 in Austria and number 25 in Switzerland, becoming the first album by a DSDS winner since second-season winner Elli Erl's 2004 album Shout It Out not to reach a top ten position in any country.
