The decreasing number sold units and decreasing market value of Oppo in India, mainly contributed by the flop sales of OnePlus in 2024.

Many Indian prefer other chinese brand (other than Oppo/OnePlus) to avoid the greenline problem that occurs on every OnePlus phone.

    I see nothing wrong with this graphic..

    Many former featurephone user in India had bought 50$-100$ chinese phone as their first smartphone.

    While the flagship market still dominated by Apple and Samsung.

      after S10 series, samsung went downhill in terms of features and design. and top of that, samsung kept removing existing features.

                    Well done Sami, you did it!
                    Managed to self sabotaged with your silly iterative updates policy refusing to update old hardware and designs for years, Z Fold sales and Flips already tanked and now even the so called bullet proof S Ultra series will take a beating after you downgraded the S-pen Bluetooth, same old 5000Mah battery from 5 years ago, downgrade the 10x optical to 5x and reduce Ram from 16Gb to 12Gb since s23U; need I say more....
                    I think the S25U will tank as well after many years of iterative virtually no real meaningful updates and hopefully a final wake up call when your markets in China and India slides (two of the most populous market in the world, all sunk like Titanic), as with most other countries too.
                    Buyers like myself in Aus who had been loyal for years are just fed up with your antics and now turning to other Chinese manufacturers like Oneplus or Google for their hardware instead.

                      Samsung should change their strategy. Samsung is spending high on advertisement, less on R & D and recovering the advertisement expenditure by huge profit margin.

                      Samsung should price competitively.
                      Apple's pricing strategy is far better than Samsung's.

                        Y'know, there's a guy that usually disses Chinese flagship in the comments.

                        Abobi, how far? Can you see that Chinese flagships are superior? 😂

                          If we consider under parent company point of view , BBK holds nearly half of the share in India.

                                        Some examples. 1.There is no encrption other than secure folder for apps. Banking apps cant use securefolder due no sms for authentication. 2. S23u,s21fe back panel came loose because of cheap quality glue. While s7 is still working well.
                                        3. Same looks after s21. Same cams.
