OPPO Sets March 16 Price Hike for Budget Phones Including OnePlus

Higher component costs are forcing adjustments that spare OPPO’s Find and Reno flagships for now.

Overview

  • OPPO’s online-store notice sets March 16 for price increases on already-released OPPO A and K phones and on OnePlus devices.
  • The company attributes the move to higher costs for key components such as high-speed storage and memory.
  • OPPO’s Find and Reno lines and OPPO Pad tablets are excluded from the adjustments for now.
  • OPPO did not disclose the size of the increases or which OnePlus models are affected.
  • The reach outside China is uncertain, though OnePlus told PCMag it is not raising U.S. prices at the moment, and other OEMs like Samsung have already lifted prices in some markets.
