One Plus India Tweet hinting at aggressive India Prices

Price

The company announced the One Plus 8 base model will be sold at $699 for the 8GB RAM and 128GB storage variant, with the higher end 12GB RAM and 256GB is priced at $799. Similarly, the entry level One Plus 8 Pro featuring 8GB RAM+128GB storage would cost $899. The premium model of one plus 8 Pro having 12GB RAM and 256GB will set you back by $999. Interestingly, the prices put one plus in direct competition of India’s premium favorites Apple and Samsung.

But here is the twist in the tale. As per a tweet by one plus India, the Indian pricing could well be very aggressive as opposed to the global launch prices. The tweet asks everyone to wait as the Indian should not go by dollars but by rupees. This tweet has put many guessing their brains out at possible pricing of the premium smartphones.
