Last week, OnePlus announced its new OnePlus 8 series phones in an online event amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, without much fanfare or even a launch event, OnePlus has revealed how much its new phones will cost in India.

Both phones i.e. the OnePlus 8 and the OnePlus 8 Pro support 5G connectivity and are powered by Qualcomm's new Snapdragon 865 SoC. They're just as powerful as you'd expect OnePlus phones to be, by now. Anyway, here are the variant-wise prices -

OnePlus has announced that the OnePlus 8 will be available in three variants. The variant with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage will cost you Rs 41,999. This is a region-exclusive variant for India. The 8GB+128GB variant is priced at Rs 44,999. The most powerful variant with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage is priced at Rs 49,999.

As for the OnePlus 8 Pro, it starts at Rs 54,999 for the 8GB+128GB variant. The 12GB+256GB costs Rs 59,999. In addition to the phones, OnePlus has also revealed that the new Bullets Wireless Z earphones will cost you Rs 1,999 in India. Overall, it's safe to say that the OnePlus 8 Series' India pricing is quite aggressive.

Given the fact that the new iPhone SE has just been launched in India for Rs 42,500, it'll be interesting to see how they both will be received in the market.
