OnePlus expands offline footprint in India

New Delhi: With India becoming the second headquarters for OnePlus, the Chinese smartphone maker on Monday announced new retail stores, to be open in Mumbai, Bengaluru and Kolkata on July 28.

By increasing offline stores and service centres, OnePlus aims to improve customer experience in the country, the company said in a statement.

The Shenzen-based company plans to open more than 10 new offline touchpoints across India along with an R&D centre this year.
