OnePlus 5, the latest offering from the Chinese smartphone company was also launched to much fanfare on 22 June. They launched two variants. The 6GB + 64GB one went for sale at just Rs 32,999. The more expensive 8GB + 128GB version retailed for Rs 37,999.
The other recent launch was the Mi Mix 2 from another Chinese company Xiaomi. They haven't launched in India yet, but the smartphone has already wowed people with its gorgeous design. The price is expected to be kept under 40k.
Both Xiaomi and OnePlus have an immense number of fans across the country, a fact evidenced by the number of non-media attendees at these events, and the fact that they refuse to buy a smartphone from any other company. It's also worth it to point out that they've been able to capture a large market share by producing phones that are solid budget and mid-range devices.
Nokia had its fans back in the day, but after its Windows Phone fiasco, it lost almost all of them. Now that Nokia is back with a bang and touting stock Android, it'll take some time to win back customer loyalty.
