OnePlus takes a dig at Samsung just before its latest flagship release | Digit

OnePlus 11 is set to launch in India on February 7th along with the OnePlus 11R and the OnePlus Buds Pro 2 at a Cloud 11 event. As the launch is around the corner, OnePlus has taken a dig at its competitor, Samsung.

In a series of recent tweets, OnePlus has not even spared Apple. They called out Samsung for the steep pricing of their Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. 

This does not end here. OnePlus even offered a $200 extra trade in credit for those users who are willing to switch to OnePlus from Samsung. The offer will be valid for users willing to buy the new OnePlus 11 in exchange for the Samsung Galaxy. 

The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra’s price starts at ₹1,24,999 in India and $1,199 (over ₹98,000) in the US. The starting prices in India are a whopping ₹15,000 over the price of the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra which was released last year in 2022.

If reports are to be believed, the prices of the OnePlus 11 5G are expected to be around ₹54,999 for the 12GB+256GB storage variant in India.

It’s not just the prices, OnePlus also called out Samsung for not offering a charger in the box. They took a dig at Samsung by mentioning how they offered a 200MP camera but no chargers.

OnePlus also commented on the new Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra’s design. They stated how the new phone had the same design as its predecessor. OnePlus also tweeted that they are good with just watching movies on phones, not making them.

OnePlus also questioned why these phones are called ‘Galaxy’. “Why do they call it the Galaxy? Astronomical pricing” tweeted the brand. Earlier, Samsung has also taken such digs at Apple.
