US consumers paying a premium to buy used OnePlus 8 Pro as supply shortages continue
The OnePlus 8 Pro might be the company’s priciest handset to date, but it’s still more affordable than flagship offerings of most other vendors. Supply is tight because of the coronavirus.
It looks like neither price nor supply side constraints are deterrents when it comes to fans who are eager to get their hands on OnePlus’ newest device.
Of course, this is not an ideal situation for OnePlus, although we are sure its ego has received a huge boost because of the price appreciation.
US fans have been left high and dry
The company is going to hold a series of flash sales in India and Europe. However, availability will still be limited. In Europe, the Glacial Green OnePlus 8 Pro with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage will be available every Thursday until supplies last. The limited-edition Ultramarine Blue model will also be available but only during the first flash sale.
The manufacturer says it’s trying its best to increase production.
