OnePlus 2 Gets Permanent Price Cut
This means that the OnePlus 2 now retails for only £250, putting it in the same league as lower mid-range handsets when price is taken into account. The company previously offered an even cheaper 16GB model, but stopped selling it in Europe and North America last summer after the 64GB variant proved to be significantly more popular. And don’t worry if you just bought a OnePlus 2 at its old price-anyone who purchased the OnePlus 2 within the last 15 days will receive a $40 refund.
OnePlus made some significant changes recently – the OnePlus X went on sale invite-free while all orders above $100 are shipping worldwide free of charge.
OnePlus attributes the price cut to cheaper and easier manufacturing, meaning they can afford to squeeze a few extra pounds from retail. We believe this move will help spread a positive word about the company and entice more buyers.
OnePlus has announced a price cut for its current flagship phone, the OnePlus 2.
OnePlus is now running a Valentine’s Day promotion, where the company will give new customers a free StyleSwap Cover or OnePlus X case with the purchase of any one of its devices.
According to Pei, the cost of producing the OnePlus 2 “has never been lower”, seemingly thanks to the careful scaling up permitted by OnePlus’s invite system. OnePlus also used to sell a version of the OnePlus 2 with 3GB of RAM and 16GB of storage, but it doesn’t appear to be an option anymore.
