OnePlus will also debut a new retail model in India that will greatly increase the synergy between its online and offline channels, he informed.
"To further expand our robust retail strategy and build deeper in-roads in the country, we plan to have more than 15,000 offline stores including partnered stores and over 150 Experience Centres (including kiosks and experience stores) by the end of this year," Nakra told .
Owing to the success of the Nord series, OnePlus emerged as the market leader in the affordable premium smartphone segment (Rs 30,000—Rs 45,000) in India in 2021.

"The OnePlus 10R 5G, powered by the exclusive MediaTek Dimensity 8100 Max chipset will be concentrating on delivering exceptional performance, whether users are performing their regular frequent tasks on their devices or playing graphically intensive games," the executive said.
The OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G houses a 5,000mAh battery that can power the device for an entire day of gaming, surfing and streaming and features a 33W SUPERVOOC rapid charging that can charge the battery from 0 to 50 per cent in just 30 minutes.
"It is the most competitive 5G enabled smartphone in the sub-20-25K segment by the brand, starting at just Rs 19,999, serving as the perfect choice for users looking to gain the OnePlus experience for everyday use," Nakra informed.
The OnePlus 10R 5G will be powered by the custom and exclusive MediaTek Dimensity 8100 Max chipset, which has the potential to deliver flagship-level performance with improved thermal control and power consumption.
