OnePlus has raised prices on five of its phones in India, including the Nord and N Series, by up to ₹4,000. This price increase affects buyers of these models as memory costs rise across the industry. The Nord 6, Nord CE6, Nord CE6 Lite, N6, and N6x have all seen price hikes ranging from ₹1,000 to ₹4,000, or approximately $10 to $42.
Some models, which are relatively new, have experienced price increases only weeks or months after launch. These increases of 4% to 13% put some phones in a price range that competes with different sets of rivals.
For instance, the Nord CE6 Lite's 8GB and 256GB version has increased by ₹4,000, making it exceed ₹30,000. The Nord CE6 8GB and 256GB version now costs over ₹40,000. The N6x, launched on July 31, has a starting price of ₹18,999, which is ₹2,000 more than its launch price. OnePlus has not directly linked the price hikes to memory costs, despite the fact that memory prices are rising.
This price increase is part of a broader trend in the smartphone industry where manufacturers are facing higher memory production costs, leading to increased smartphone prices.
