RIP OnePlus. It's like Motorola Lenovo all over again. Never liked Oppo or it's lousy ColorOS and bloatwares. Shudder to that they will now ruin OnePlus which is already happening with the Android 12 upgrade being rolled out

      The problem is oppo just making money from costumers not supporting them for parts after 2 years. So that you buy another again an expensive one

        After they kicked the other founder off oneplus, all they been doing is putting on the clown makeup. Water is wet, it's all BBK anyway.

              If Oppo wants to make OnePlus the pioneer brand for flagship smartphones, then what kind of treatment Oppo will give to its own Find X series in the future? I'd be surprised if Oppo will abandon the entire Find X series because of this new partnership.

                    Seriously, people should read how the sister companies work.

                      DroitwichGas, 19 Dec 2022Carl Pei was co founder of OnePlus, which is a bit more tha... moreYeah, sure he had an important role, but my point to the other poster is he was not the CEO as he claimed. Pete Lau has always had the leading management position within the company and the other levels of management would come under the CEO.

                        OP and Oppo were under BBK. They're probably consolidating resources to lessen expense.

                          What does this mean? No more find X Flagships? I certainly don't want that.

                            Hope its time for Bionic TLens! We need superfast TLens AF in selfie📱

                              So if OP are targeting the high end phones and OPPO the mid range where does that now leave the Nord range of phones, given they appear to have been a sales success story?

                              In future are OP only going to release the 11, 12 etc range of phones, particularly given there's no rumours of a Nord 3 being released any time soon?

                                Aierlan, 19 Dec 2022Sorry, but Carl Pei was never the CEO of Oneplus. Liu Zuohu... moreCarl Pei was co founder of OnePlus, which is a bit more than just working under Pete Lau?

                                  Huh??? 😂😂😂 partnership with companies from the same corp? what kind of stupidity is this that they're trying to pull?

                                    the tech nerd, 19 Dec 2022They are same goddamn company, it's literally correct ... moreYeah, I don't see how people don't realize it. Unfortunately, I guess that means we probably won't be getting any Oppo A-series or Reno phones working in the US any time soon. (At least on Verizon.)

                                      Anonymous, 19 Dec 2022Why would oppo make a partnership with it's own company? Because the right hand wants to shake the left hand.
