OnePlus Denies Shutdown Reports Amidst Oppo Restructuring
21 Jan
Summary
- Reports suggest parent company Oppo plans to end OnePlus operations soon.
- OnePlus India CEO strongly denies shutdown claims, cites official sources.
- The company's closure would impact the Western mobile market significantly.
Recent reports suggest that the parent company, Oppo, intends to wind down the operations of its smartphone brand, OnePlus. These allegations, initially published by Android Headlines, point to declining sales figures and multiple unnamed sources as evidence.
The reports also mention the closure of some corporate headquarters and the cancellation of future products, such as OnePlus's next foldable device. This has led to speculation about the brand's imminent demise.
However, OnePlus executives have strongly refuted these claims. Robin Liu, CEO of OnePlus India, issued a statement on X confirming that the company's business operations are proceeding normally and urging verification of information through official channels. The North American branch of OnePlus also provided assurances regarding continued after-sales support and software updates.
Should OnePlus cease operations, it would create a notable void in the mobile market, particularly in Western countries where alternative options outside of Apple, Google, and Samsung are limited. The OnePlus 15, released in early 2025, was praised for its high-end specifications at a competitive price.
