OnePlus TV Discontinued? TV Models Removed from India Website

It looks like OnePlus has exited the smart TV market in India and we can see this from the recent developments observed this week. OnePlus hasn’t launched a new smart TV in the country for a while as it expands its smartphone lineup and moves into new segments like tablets and foldables. And if that wasn’t enough, the product range has been completely removed from the company’s website.

At the time of writing, OnePlus didn’t have any of its TV models listed on the official website, which pretty much marks the end of the company’s lineup.

We had a feeling that OnePlus was planning something big with its product lineup in India, with the first signs appearing in October last year when a report suggested that OnePlus and Realme were planning to exit the smart TV market. The report cited sources as saying that both OnePlus and Realme are moving away from the TV category, which also includes the production side.

It’s safe to say that a decision like discontinuing a product line isn’t made overnight, and it’s likely that ever since OnePlus started working under Oppo, things have been streamlined by focusing on volume or popular products. It’s not like OnePlus TVs weren’t sold in the country at all, but even the brand understands the difference in selling a phone and the range of TVs.

After all, people upgrade phones every 2-3 years, but a TV is expected to be an investment for at least 10 years. The news of OnePlus exiting the TV segment means that Xiaomi has the clear market leader, followed by Samsung and other brands like Vu, TCL and others.

However, OnePlus needs to make sure that its current OnePlus TV buyers aren’t left high and dry. They must be given proper after sales support including providing spare parts for their TV models. OnePlus entered the smart TV market in India with the TV Q1 series in 2019.

Since then, it has launched a wide range of televisions targeting the budget segment up to 32 inches. If OnePlus has stopped its TV business in India, the company should come forward and share an update with the public. It’s the least it can do, especially for those who have spent their hard-earned money on their TVs.

With OnePlus and Realme exiting this segment and Xiaomi also unlikely to bring their laptops to the country anymore, people might be less inclined to buy products from these new age brands and stick with traditional names like Samsung, LG and Sony. , forward.
