OnePlus has consistently pushed the boundaries of premium and mid-range smartphones, but the brand is now ready to aggressively target the budget segment. In an exclusive scoop, we have learned that OnePlus is gearing up to introduce an entirely new lineup of smartphones aimed at budget-conscious consumers, promising to deliver the brand’s signature fast and smooth experience to a much wider audience.
The ‘OnePlus N’ Series
According to trusted industry insider Yogesh Brar, OnePlus is actively developing a brand-new smartphone lineup expected to be officially named the OnePlus N series. Rather than a single device release, Brar confirms that this will be a comprehensive family featuring multiple smartphones tailored for different tiers.
