OnePlus 8 Pro to go on sale in India for first time: Check price, features and offers

OnePlus 8 Pro is set to go on sale in India for the the first time today, about two months after it was launched globally during an online event. The flagship-level smartphone will be up for grabs at 12 noon through Amazon and OnePlus.in. The smartphone was originally planned to go on sale on May 29, though it was delayed after Oppo had to shut down its factory as some of its employees tested positive for COVID-19. OnePlus smartphones are still manufactured in Oppo’s Greater Noida factory. 

Last week, OnePlus announced that the flagship OnePlus phone will be available only in limited qualities due to the “huge demand” in the country. The OnePlus 8 Pro was launched alongside the OnePlus 8 in April. The latter has already gone on sale a few times.
