Posted on by

OnePlus has announced a permanent price drop on its flagship smartphone, the OnePlus 2.

Both models receive an INR 2,000 price cut. The 64GB model is now priced at INR 22,999 ($341) and the 16GB model at INR 20,999 ($311).

OnePlus says the price cut is due to “timing and scale” and that their operations have scaled-up sufficiently to allow them to sell the phone at a lower price.
