New Delhi, Jan 19 (IANS) The year 2025 for global technology brand OnePlus in India will be marked by key innovations, localised features tailored specifically for the domestic market, and exceptional end-to-end customer support, the company said on Sunday.
The country is a key market for OnePlus and to further this, “we recently announced Project Starlight that marks one of the biggest investments made by OnePlus in India,” a company spokesperson told IANS.
“As part of this project, we plan to invest Rs 2,000 Crore each year till 2027 focused towards addressing three key pillars, making our devices sturdier, ensuring remarkable customer service and developing India-specific features for our products,” said the OnePlus spokesperson.
In Q3 2024, India’s smartphone market achieved its highest-ever value, driven by the ongoing trend of premiumisation and domestic manufacturing. 5G smartphones captured their highest-ever share of 81 per cent in the overall shipments, according to Counterpoint Research.
