OnePlus is ending new product launches in North America and Europe, but this is not yet a worldwide shutdown. Existing devices will retain their promised support, ColorOS will replace OxygenOS for users who opt in, and the brand says India remains open for business. The difficult part is what happens after that.OnePlus has finally settled, although not in the clean, dramatic way the headline “OnePlus is dead” suggests. The company has confirmed that it will stop launching new products in North America and Europe. Remaining stock can still be sold, the European online store and community remain open for now, and existing phones are not about to stop working. OnePlus says their software updates, security patches, warranties and repair channels will continue for the periods already promised.About The AuthorAt heart, I am a storyteller drawn to the watershed moments that bend the technology landscape. I braid narrative with data, humanise statistics, and trace the arc from first spark to world-changing impact. My reportage, features and reviews are witty, sardonic, visual and vivid, using anecdote to illuminate rather than eviscerate.
As a technology journalist with over sixteen years of experience, I have travelled the world and the seven seas, covered every major tech conference worth its lanyard, chronicled the defining breakthroughs of the last decade and a half, and played a pivotal role in launching some of India’s most important technology publishing platforms across web, print and TV.
