OnePlus brought in if not the best, but one of the best smartphones of the year 2019 – OnePlus 7 Pro. After making major headlines throughout the year, the company is back with some more. The Shenzhen based OEM is now gearing up for the OnePlus 8 series slated to arrive next year.
Interestingly, OnePlus is going to bring not two but three variants of their upcoming lineup. Following the footsteps of other brands like Samsung, the series will include a Pro model and a budget conscious Lite variant besides the regular OnePlus 8.
