What we’re seeing is that with current products, there’s still a demand from a large consumer base for a more suitable price that enables more consumers to be able to access OnePlus products. That’s a really important insight and it’s something that we’re taking into very serious consideration.

Though there were no mentions of what exactly the affordable device that the company is planning on releasing, it’s reported to be the OnePlus Z.
Lau has claimed that despite the company wants to make more affordable products, they will remain up to the standards that OnePlus has set.
Seeing how plenty of smartphone makers releasing budget smartphones in the market, it’s not surprising to hear OnePlus’ claims.
