Meanwhile, OnePlus actually did put out marketing materials as if it's entering your country, but then nothing happened. Weird. Oh well, it's just an interesting observation of the dynamic smartphone market in the region.

This might just be a “brand name” game. Only they know the actual reason. Maybe the opposite reason of why Vivo didn't continue the T-series here and instead brought the iQOO series here? Idk.

And since Oppo is already there, wouldn't it be even easier for them to enter as their factory is already there? I mean Realme is there as well.

GREEDY GOVERNMENT, that's the main reason they banned iphone 16 series and/or others. They raise taxes and excise periodically. They impose luxury tax on low-end smartphones or other cheap electronics. Allowing cigarettes to be sold freely even to children? They don't care about the common people as long as they get more and more money to corrupt!!

Beyond a certain price point, phones do not sell much there. So that explains why there's no google and oneplus in that region. And iPhones probably sell in very tiny quantities, hence apple doesn't setup a factory but idk what is the exact reason

So they probably don't need to setup more in other regions, it'll be unnecessary, tbh. But I guess the sales ban kinda forced them to throw in some loose change so fix the situation
