According to a blog post shared by Lau, OnePlus plan to bring its premium, flagship experience to a new affordable smartphone line. Further, Lau says that OnePlus is introducing this smartphone in Europe and India and that the company is looking to launch other more affordable smartphones in North America “in the near future.”
This indicates that this upcoming cheaper OnePlus smartphone won’t launch in Canada, but that a future more affordable smartphone could make its way here in the future.
