Premium smartphone maker OnePlus said its focus would be on rolling out Smart TVs and 5G smartphones next year. The firm has also tied up with offline stores to increase its sales volume in India.
“Right now, we are a two product firm – OnePlus7 and OnePlus 7 Pro. Next year, our focus will be on rolling out 5G smartphones and [the] Smart TV,” said Vikas Agarwal, general manager, OnePlus India.
‘Ready with technology’
“Once spectrum for 5G is announced in India, trials will commence. We are ready with the technology and will roll out the phones next year,” he said.
On the launch of Android-based Smart TVs, Mr. Agarwal said that these products would be available in the premium segment and prices would be cheaper compared with existing products of other companies in the market.
He, however, said it was too early to say whether the Smart TVs would be manufactured in India.
Mr. Agarwal was in the city to announce the company’s tie-up with Poorvika Mobiles to strengthen its offline presence. Currently, OnePlus has a strong presence in the online market, commanding a market share of more than 60%.
