Credit to lazada who bring this awesome phone to oneplus fans in Indonesia. Indonesia smartphone penetration is still low at 250 million people, but it growing rapidly. If we look at that, thats a huge potential market for sure. A lot of International Firms predict, this market will be fourth largest market in the world. Thats why a numbers of brand started to entering this market. List china brands who have entered officially i.e xiaomi, vivo, oppo, and now oneplus. Even oppo has started building a plant there.
The very first appearance of OnePlus One on Lazada was in mid-2014, for Filipino customers. Available models there are 16GB with white cover and 64GB black and white ones, all tagged as imports and with 4G LTE, and sold with prices higher than the normal ones.
Also I found through a quick search a 64GB black OPO with ColorOS on Lazada Singapore. Its listing first appeared on the website last August 2014.
(There is near-total blackout on major Android phone news sites but not local ones on the topic of OPO being on sale in Lazada Philippines earlier than Indonesia.)
