Just recently, the new-gen OnePlus 8 series flagship smartphones have been announced at a price of 3,999 yuan ($565). After the first sale, the entire network’s sales in one minute exceeded 100 million yuan ($14.12 million). In recent days, OnePlus Technology CEO Liu Zuohu revealed on Weibo that the higher version of the phone with a price of nearly 6,000 yuan ($847) is still in short supply. However, we didn’t expect that today there would be an announcement that all models from this series are already out of stock.

Thank you for your support and understanding, we will resume sales supply as soon as possible.’
