OnePlus 10T 5G Coming To The Philippines
To recap, Digital Walker handled the OnePlus devices’ offline and online sales in the Philippines. Digital Walker is a multi-brand electronics retail chain and the brand’s sole distributor across the country. Moreover, it is the only Nothing Phone 1 distributor nationwide. Also, Digital Walker handles the distribution of other Nothing devices in the Philippines. Now, OnePlus is finally set to make its foray into the Philippines market. So, the company is likely to assign the sales and distribution of its products to more companies.
In fact, OnePlus could set up its own company to handle after-sales services and other domestic affairs. If this speculation proves to be true, OnePlus will be following in the footsteps of the Samsung Electronics Philippines Corporation. However, OnePlus is still mum on its plan to set up its own company in the Philippines. Nevertheless, OnePlus will appoint local personnel to strengthen its presence in the country moving forward. This will pave the way for more retail opportunities.
So, the company could set up OnePlus stores in the Philippines in the coming days. Further, OnePlus will probably collaborate with local telecommunication companies. The brand could launch appealing programs and campaigns to attract more buyers as well. The OnePlus 10T is a feature-laden smartphone that could help the company tighten its grip on the Philippines smartphone market. The company currently has an authorized service center in Metro Manila. Also, it has a whopping 25 collection points in the country.
The OnePlus 10T has already gone on sale in India. OnePlus is doling out a slew of unmissable launch offers during the handset’s first sale in the country. OnePlus could introduce equally exciting launch offers in the Philippines for those who purchase the 10T 5G smartphone.
