Smartphone buyers planning to purchase devices from OPPO or OnePlus may face higher prices soon. According to reports, both brands have issued a joint statement indicating that smartphone prices will increase starting March 16 across several markets, including India.

The companies attribute the upcoming price revision to rising component costs and ongoing supply shortages affecting the global smartphone industry.

Budget Phones Likely to Be Hit First

The initial price hike is expected to affect mainly budget and mid-range models. Devices from OPPO’s K Series and A Series are likely to see the first round of price increases.

Similarly, several OnePlus devices—particularly from its popular mid-range lineup—may also become more expensive.

However, premium devices such as:

• OPPO Find Series

• OPPO Reno Series

• OPPO Pad

are expected to continue at their current prices for now.

Possible Price Increase

Reports suggest that smartphone prices could rise by around 15–20 percent, though the companies have not officially confirmed exact figures.

For example, the OnePlus 15R, which launched at ₹47,999, could see its price cross ₹50,000, with some leaks hinting at a starting price of around ₹51,999.

Other devices that may see price changes include:

• OnePlus Nord 5 Series

• OnePlus 15

• OPPO K14x

• OPPO K13 Series

• OPPO K12x

• OPPO A6 Series

• OPPO A5 Series

Industry-Wide Trend

The price hike may not be limited to OPPO and OnePlus. Other smartphone brands such as Samsung and Realme have already increased prices of some models in India.

Meanwhile, companies like Vivo and iQOO are also expected to revise their prices soon due to increasing component costs.

What Buyers Should Do

If consumers are planning to purchase smartphones from OPPO or OnePlus, experts suggest buying before March 16 to avoid paying the higher prices expected after the revision.
