OnePlus CEO explains why OnePlus’ dual-smartphone will continue  – Gizmochina

Chinese technology giant OnePlus recently launched the OnePlus 7T and the 7T Pro globally and the renders of the upcoming OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro have  already leaked online. The OnePlus 8 duo are expected to go official by Q2 2020. In a recent interview with Times of India, Pete Lau, CEO, OnePlus said “We plan to stick with our current strategy of introducing two products simultaneously. While one device will cater to the premium segment, the other will be an affordable version of the first.”

OnePlus currently dominates the premium smartphone market in India, commanding well over 42% and beating rivals like Samsung and Apple. The figures go on to prove OnePlus’ brilliant strategy, and how well they have positioned their smartphones as ‘flagship killers.” OnePlus released the 7 and the 7 Pro in the second quarter of 2019, and followed it up by launching the 7T and the 7T Pro in the fourth quarter. Previously OnePlus launched one smartphone in the first half of the year and a T variant in the second half.

When Lau was questioned about the shift in strategy, he said, “We went with the dual phone strategy since we want to offer the best of both worlds to our patrons. The OnePlus 7 Pro, for example, offers the most updated technology at the moment. But, in a price-sensitive market like India, the Pro is out of bounds for most people. This is where the OnePlus 7 comes in. It offers the best of both worlds.”
