The OnePlus 8 series was unveiled recently in an online affair, where the global pricing and availability was also announced.
However, the prices for India were not mentioned.The OnePlus 8 will start at Rs 41,999 for a region-exclusive 6GB + 128GB variant, Rs 44,999 for the 8GB + 128GB variant, and Rs 49,999 for the 12GB + 256GB variant.
The same RAM and storage configurations are available for the OnePlus 8 Pro, which will be priced at Rs 54,999 and Rs 59,999 respectively.
The Bullets Wireless Z are priced at Rs 1,999.
No date for the deliveries was mentioned.
We expect that information to be available in early May, once eCommerce platforms start functioning fully.
Amazon.in will be the online partner.India is OnePlus biggest market, where it also enjoys a majority in the premium segment.
This made the omission of Indian details even more noteworthy.
But considering the fact that the country is in a state of precautionary lockdown for the foreseeable future, with no availability of logistical partners, this step is understandable.Ending our wait, OnePlus took to the Red Cable Club to finally reveal pricing details for India.
Unsurprisingly, the prices are closer to their Chinese counterparts than the prices of the western markets.OnePlus 8OnePlus 8 Pro6GB, 128GBRs 41,999-8GB, 128GBRs 44,999Rs 54,99912GB, 256GBRs 49,999Rs 59,999Colour optionsGlacial Green, Onyx Black, Interstellar GlowGlacial Green, Onyx Black, Ultramarine BlueBoth the OnePlus 8 and the OnePlus 8 Pro are powered by the latest 7nm octa-core Snapdragon 865 chipset clocking at 2.84GHz coupled with Adreno 650 GPU.
