By Deepanshu Kumar, 28th July, 2014
The much talked about OnePlus one is all set to launch in the Indian markets soon as per the company's official forum. The flagship killer, as they call it shall be soon entering the competition of budget smartphones with heavy hardware and software specifications and give Indians a wonderful alternative to those 40k INR phones that almost empty their pockets. Xiaomi's Mi 3 has just gained momentum in India after getting sold like hot cakes and now here comes a twister that will definitely make you think twice before you get a new phone.
The OnePlus One's official forum says :
Over the past months, we've seen tremendous interest from India, despite not having launched there. We have many customers in India purchasing to the US, and then asking a friend to bring it over or trans-shipping it. Some have even purchased the device from scalpers. Looking at our traffic, India ranks number 8, outweighing many of our launch countries.
It's safe to say that we're interested in India. Being such a young company, we also know that India is a huge challenge. We're all about creating a great user experience from end to end. We understand that there are lots to learn, consider and set up before we can officially launch in this vast country.
What we could have done was keep everything quiet, and then surprise you guys further down the line when everything was ready. We then thought, why not do it together with our Indian fans? In the end, our success or failure will depend on how well we manage to please our fans. So why not start building this relationship right now?
