OnePlus arrived on the scene in 2014 with brash marketing and a compelling pitch: What if your phone was cheaper and faster? More than a decade later, the market is much different, and so is OnePlus. Confirming months of rumors and speculation, OnePlus has confirmed it’s ending phone releases in North America and Europe.
This is pretty sad. Oneplus phones, tablets, and watches have like double the battery of samsung / apple, at 1/3rd of the cost. Hopefully OPPO will make another branding for europe at least, because the EU still does allow chinese smartphones to be sold there. The US can just isolate itself and force its people to buy $1500 smartphones.
Xiaomi, vivo, and oppo(oneplus’s parent company) are growing pretty rapidly in market share at least.

it’s getting to the point in this country that you have to buy a mobile router and get a foreign plan just so that you can avoid the price bloat and the data mining just to use the phone that you want to use.
it sometimes makes we wish that i dgaf about privacy or rights like the overwhelming majority of americans don’t.
i think i might buy a honor phone after my oneplus reaches retirement age, they seem pretty good
Oneplus has become pretty meh over the years. Nowhere hear the value it used to be.
this really sucks, i really like my oneplus nord 5 ._.
