OnePlus and Oppo hike smartphone prices in India amid rising input costs

Two major brands, OnePlus and Oppo, have increased the prices of their smartphones in India, adding to a broader industry trend driven by rising component costs and supply chain pressures.

OnePlus and Oppo have both raised smartphone prices in India, adding fresh pressure to buyers already facing repeated revisions across the premium and mid-range market. NDTV Profit reported that OnePlus has lifted prices on several Nord, Nord CE and N-series variants, with increases ranging from Rs 2,000 to Rs 4,000, while Oppo has issued a wider round of revisions across its Reno and A-series handsets. The moves reflect a broader industry trend in which handset makers are passing on higher input costs to consumers.

Among OnePlus models, the Nord 6 now starts at Rs 46,999 for the 8GB+256GB version and Rs 52,999 for the 12GB+256GB variant, each up by Rs 2,000. The Nord CE6 has also risen by Rs 2,000 across its two listed configurations, while the Nord CE6 Lite has seen larger jumps, including a Rs 4,000 increase for the 8GB+256GB model. NDTV Profit also reported higher prices for the N6 and N6x lines, with all listed variants moving up by Rs 2,000.

Oppo’s revisions are steeper in some cases. The Reno 16 5G has gone up by Rs 5,000 to Rs 71,999, according to NDTV Profit, while another Reno 16 variant has risen by Rs 4,000. The Reno 16c 5G has also been repriced upwards by Rs 3,000 to Rs 4,000, and the A6s 5G and A6x 5G ranges have seen increases of Rs 1,000 to Rs 3,000 depending on configuration. The changes were reported as taking effect on Tuesday.

The latest increases follow a run of price revisions across the Indian smartphone market this year. According to industry reports from April and May, Oppo, OnePlus, Xiaomi, Nothing and Realme have all adjusted prices as memory and storage costs climbed, with rising DRAM and NAND prices linked in part to demand from AI data centres. Other reports have said both Oppo and OnePlus have already raised prices earlier in the year, suggesting the current round is part of a wider pattern rather than an isolated change.
