The price-drop makes the OnePlus 7 an extremely lucrative proposition for many who might have been eyeing the Redmi K20 Pro now that the latter is priced at just Rs. 24,999after getting a Rs. 3,000 discountas part of Xiaomi’s upcoming Diwali sale. However, it will be interesting to see if the lower pricing of the OnePlus 7 will cannibalize sales of the OnePlus 7T, which is not something the company would be bargaining for.

As a refresher, OnePlus on Thursday launched the OnePlus 7T for Rs. 37,999 in India. The device comes with a few notable upgrades over the standard OnePlus 7, including the Snapdragon 855+ SoC, a 19:9 90Hz Fluid AMOLED display, a triple-cam setup, an extra 2GB of RAM and slightly faster Warp Charge 30T. All of that makes it a definite improvement over the OnePlus 7, but the reduced pricing will now make the older device an attractive proposition for many potential buyers.
