This is pretty sad. Oneplus phones, tablets, and watches have like double the battery of samsung / apple, at 1/3rd of the cost. Hopefully OPPO will make another branding for europe at least, because the EU still does allow chinese smartphones to be sold there. The US can just isolate itself and force its people to buy $1500 smartphones.
Xiaomi, vivo, and oppo(oneplus's parent company) are growing pretty rapidly in market share at least.
Oneplus has become pretty meh over the years. Nowhere hear the value it used to be.
it's getting to the point in this country that you have to buy a mobile router and get a foreign plan just so that you can avoid the price bloat and the data mining just to use the phone that you want to use.
it sometimes makes we wish that i dgaf about privacy or rights like the overwhelming majority of americans don't.
i think i might buy a honor phone after my oneplus reaches retirement age, they seem pretty good
