The telecommunication industry is the fastest growing sector in today’s economy. Earlier cell
phone industry is primarily engaged in the manufacturing of mobile phones, including mobile
phone handsets. But now the industry is totally concentrated on moving forward
technologically. It is growing alongside up-and-coming technologies and innovations,
building upon the progress of "smartphones" and other phone features and segments made in
recent years.
Smartphones have revolutionized the way we do things: the role of smartphones in today’s
society is phenomenal. Today’s smartphone is taking the role of computer making it possible
to do a lot with small held devices. It has a broad use such as sharing information, shopping,
browsing and educational tools. Nowadays brands plays a very vital role in consumer buying
decisions. Consumers of smartphone are strongly influenced by brands when it comes to
choosing a smartphone.
ABOUT ONEPLUS
HISTORY:
The company's main goal was to design a smartphone that would balance high-end quality
with a lower price than other phones in its class, believing that users would "Never Settle" for
the lower-quality devices produced by other companies. Lau explained that "we will never be
different just for the sake of being different. Everything done has to improve the actual user
experience in day-to-day use. He also showed aspirations of being the "Muji of the tech
industry", emphasizing its focus on high-quality products with simplistic, user-friendly
designs. Continuing Lau's association with the platform from the Oppo N1, OnePlus entered
into an exclusive licensing agreement with Cyanogen Inc. to base its products' Android
distribution upon a variant of the popular custom ROM Cyanogen MoD and use its
trademarks outside of China.
The company unveiled its first device, the OnePlus One, on 23 April 2014. In December
2014, alongside the release of the OnePlus One in India exclusively through Amazon,
OnePlus also announced plans to establish a presence in the country, with plans to open 25
official walk-in service centres across India.
In April 2014, OnePlus hired Han as the product ambassador in mainland China. On 9 March
2014, the company expanded its operations to the European Union. As of July 2018, OnePlus
serves to the following 34 countries and
regions: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, China, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech
Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hong
Kong, Hungary, India, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Pol
and, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Slovakia, Slovenia, Sweden, United Kingdom, and United
States.
Early phones were only available through a system whereby customers had to sign up for an
invite to purchase the phone at irregular intervals. The system was claimed to be necessary
for the young company to manage huge demand. OnePlus ended the invite system with the
launch of OnePlus 3 on 14 June 2016. Announced via an interactive VR launch event, the
OnePlus 3 initially went on sale within the VR app itself. OnePlus touted the event as the
world's first VR shopping experience. The phone was made available for sale later that day in
China, North America and the European Union on the OnePlus website, and in India on
Amazon India.
On 25 April 2014, OnePlus began its "Smash the Past" campaign. The promotion asked
selected participants to destroy their phones on video in an effort to purchase the OnePlus
One for $1 (US). Due to confusion, several videos were published by unselected users
misinterpreting the promotion and destroying their phones before the promotion start date.
The campaign was heavily criticized for environmental waste and safety concerns, due to
batteries and phone components posing potential hazards to participants destroying their
phones. OnePlus allowed the winners to donate the old phone.There were 140,000 entrants in
the contest with 100 winners.
Warranty rejections
OnePlus One issue with the yellow display band at the bottom of the screen which affected
some units were not covered under warranty. A similar issue was reported for Oppo Find 7
and Oppo Find 7a and Oppo covered it under warranty.
Ladies First
On 13 August 2014, OnePlus hosted a contest to give invites, which were hard to come by at
the time, to their female forum members. Users were asked to post a photo of themselves
with the OnePlus logo, images would be shared in the forum and could be "liked" by other
forum members. Hours after being announced, the campaign was stopped because of the
sexist implications in the election process.
Ban in India
As of 21 December 2014, the banning of import and selling of the device in India has been
lifted. The device continues to be shipped with Cyanogen OS; however, a customised version
of Android specially designed by OnePlus and named OxygenOS has been released, allowing
later OnePlus devices to be sold in India.
ONE PLUS IN INDIA-
Even as Apple and its iPhone brand remains the most aspirational smartphone in India, it is
OnePlus — owned by the same Chinese company that makes Vivo and Oppo — that has won
the hearts of its Indian customers. For the first time in 2018 OnePlus bagged the top slot with
a market share of 40 per cent in India's premium phones segment, pulling ahead of Samsung
which has a share of 34 per cent, and Apple which is now languishing at 14 per cent.
A survey was conducted by Cyber Media Research, a firm which regularly carries out
surveys to gauge the consumer aspirations, preferences and challenges around smartphones,
announced OnePlus as the most trusted brand. Interestingly, the Chinese company is one of
the youngest smartphone maker in the country. OnePlus — which brings out only one phone
at a time — emerged as a brand with the most satisfied customers, pushing down even Apple
users, according to a survey by Cyber Media Research. The brand, owned by BBK
Electronics of China, was also the highest recommended as well as the one with the highest
resale value in terms of customer perception. “100% of OnePlus customers are satisfied in
terms of the quality of the phone,” Cyber Media Research said. OnePlus is securing a healthy
mindshare amongst Indian smartphone consumers," Similarly, 96% of the brand’s customers
are satisfied with availability of the spare parts and 90% are happy with the speed of problem
resolution.OnePlus has benefitted hugely from its loyal customer base.It began its journey
with a 'refer-only' sales model where potential buyers needed to get an invitation from an
existing user to be able to purchase a device.This worked in both setting up a dedicated user
base as well as creating aspiration for the brand among smartphone users. Today nearly 40
per cent of existing OnePlus users go for the next OnePlus device. The migration of iPhone
users to Android devices is now a global trend which is playing out in India as well. This has
benefitted OnePlus during the last quarter in India. “As per Google, a third of the people
searching for iPhones are also looking for OnePlus.OnePlus's unique promotional efforts
have also contributed to its phenomenal growth. Unlike most other premium brands, OnePlus
bet on social media influencers rather than television commercials. For example, on the photo
and video sharing platform Instagram, it has roped in celebrities who promote new OnePlus
devices to their followers through personalised video messages.
Indian smartphone market in the premium segment (≥₹30,000 or roughly ≥US$420 retail
price) grew 29% YoY to reach a record high in 2019. The availability of affordable premium
smartphones, aggressive offers like significant price cuts, and user upgrades were the main
reasons for the growth.
In 2019, OnePlus was the number one premium brand. The first time it managed this for a
full year. Its shipments grew 28% YoY and captured one-third of India’s premium segment.
Existing users upgrading and the acquisition of new consumers, led by strong word-of-mouth
were the main reasons for the growth. OnePlus is continuously listening to users’ feedback
and bringing industry-first innovations and features. Customer feedback platforms such as the
“OnePlus community” have helped the brand gauge the needs of Indian consumers.
Examples of innovations include its adoption of high refresh rate (90Hz), almost bezel-less
displays and being first to launch smartphones with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 855 Series
application processor in India.
OnePlus also became the first ever premium smartphone brand to cross two million
shipments in a year in 2019. The contribution of OnePlus’s ultra-premium segment
(≥₹45,000 or roughly ≥US$634 retail price) to the overall OnePlus portfolio grew to 25% in
2019 driven by the OnePlus 7 Pro.
Samsung dropped to second position and declined 2 percentage points YoY in the premium
segment. The Galaxy S10 Plus was the top-selling flagship for Samsung in 2019, despite the
availability of cheaper models like Galaxy S10e. As a result, Samsung’s ultra-premium
segment shipments grew by 24% YoY and the segment’s contribution to Samsung’s overall
premium shipments reached 79% in 2019, compared to 62% in 2018.
The competition from OnePlus and affordable premium offerings from Oppo (Reno Series),
Asus (6Z) and Xiaomi (Redmi K20 Pro) took its toll on Samsung. In response, Samsung
launched the lite versions of its flagships, Galaxy S10 Lite and Note 10 Lite, for the first time
in 2020 to compete in the affordable premium offerings range.
Apple was the fastest growing premium smartphone brand in 2019 with 41% YoY driven by
multiple price cuts on iPhone XR throughout the year. Apple iPhone XR was the number one
ultra-premium smartphone model in India followed by Samsung’s Galaxy S10 Plus and
OnePlus 7 Pro. Additionally, this year Apple saw the fastest rollout of its new iPhones (11
series) in India with aggressive pricing and channel strategy. In fact the new series especially
iPhone 11 was introduced at a lower price point than the last year’s iPhone XR launch. This
has helped to gain share during the festive season and in its launch quarter in India
We expect the strongest 2021 for Apple in India as it has expanded its production capacity in
India and is now manufacturing iPhones on a Completely Knocked Down (CKD) basis.
These activities will help the brand to offer competitive pricing in a price-sensitive market
like India.
It is becoming challenging to compete in the India premium segment due to the growing
number of flagship devices and brands. We are expecting significant growth in the purchase
of premium smartphones in 2020 with the Indian market ASP likely to reflect this shift in
focus. The growth drivers in 2019, such as price cuts, upgrade plans, EMI offers, etc., are
expected to continue in 2020 leading more Indian consumers upgrading to premium devices.
If I were to name a phone brand that rose from zero to becoming one of the major brands in
Asian countries within a very short period, then the name is definitely going to be OnePlus.
The marketing strategies of of OnePlus have made all the difference in its success when
compared to the other competitors.
The marketing geniuses behind this brand deserves a mention for greatly reducing advertising
costs, retailing commissions and other costs that might have caused an increase in price.
A result of all of that is innovation in marketing at lower costs leading to a brilliant case study
for us to analyse. So let’s get on with it and find out what marketing strategies make
OnePlus a marketing success story.
When the phone was just launched in India, OnePlus created a scarce situation whereby not
everyone could buy the phone even though the market was getting a sense of the phone and
was liking it.
In this strategy of exclusivity that was implemented by OnePlus, you could have got the
phone only if one of the users of OnePlus gave you an invite.
Since the phones were not readily available and one could only get it basis the invite, the
option of choice was ruled out. That is, you don’t walk into a phone shop and see OnePlus
phones as one of the products to choose from.
Consequently, the company had no reason to establish retail stores or own any warehouses
filled with unsold phones. The supply was there to adequately meet the demand.
Apart from that, the company was able to directly measure the influence of their product and
its acceptability. Also, they were able to deduce what the customers’ want and when they
want it.
OnePlus developed a cult following using this strategy. To determine the effectiveness of
this strategy, you should check how there was a boom in their site’s traffic when people
were
allowed to order the phones without having any invite during Black Friday and Cyber
Monday sales.
This strategy of scarcity was discontinued since the launch of OnePlus 3.
Interestingly, OnePlus used another splendid strategy that entails banking on the influence
of other brands or personalities to raise awareness and draw the attention of people to their
products.
An example of this was it recent collaboration with Netflix India. OnePlus India was the first
to release the first look of the much awaited Sacred Games season 2. It claimed that the
pictures were taken by its product and this marketing program drove a lot of visits to their
social media pages even from the ardent followers of the series.
Surprisingly, OnePlus not only used the influence of Netflix, it also engaged popular actors,
models and media personalities as well. This was mostly used during the recently launched
OnePlus 7 series.
Before OnePlus entered the Indian market, it had already created an active
community where discussions about phone were taking place. This gave OnePlus the
necessaryinitialtraction.
After the launch, OnePlus introduced its product to this community and they liked it. Guess
what? The first users of this product started spreading the gospel about it and telling everyone
aboutthephone.
Besides this, OnePlus made it more fun for them when it made them eligible to invite other
people to buy the phone, which, as I mentioned, was the only way to buy the phone back
then.
As more people got their hands on these phones and got satisfied with what they
bought, each person became an endorser for the brand and for the quality product that it
sold.
OnePlus India is very active on various social media platforms. It has over 2.2 million
followers on Instagram and 1.73 million on Twitter. These platforms are where it runs
most ofitscampaigns.
OnePlus has spent a fair share of money on traditional marketing and above the line activities
as well. For example, OnePlus once ran an ad during the launch of OnePlus 5 during the
Championship match between Pakistan and India, which was a much-anticipated match.
This is usual for the industry OnePlus is in. Especially when you hear about the last
released advertising spend of Apple which was pegged at $1.8 billion dollars in 2015.
Of course, OnePlus, initially might not have been able to afford that kind of money. Or even
if it could have, it did consciously choose to innovate their marketing initiatives.
One of the digital campaigns launched by OnePlus was tagged “Smash The Past”, where
contestants are required to smash their present device and upload the video online so as to
have the chance of getting
5. A Quality Product
A quality product is the best marketing you could ever do. You can just never understate
the importance of the quality of a product when it comes to marketing strategies.
It was very clear that Samsung and Apple are high-end phones with very sleek design, hence,
trying to beat them by having a cheaper one would only work if the quality is maintained.
And that was one of the biggest task in front of OnePlus. How could they do it?
With a top-notch phone and competitive pricing, which came from the greatly reduced
marketing costs, OnePlus was able to compete with bigger brands
Do a quick search on Google and you will discover that a lot of the consumers were beyond
satisfied with what OnePlus phones are offering. Here, I grabbed some of the reviews for you
to see.
OnePlus, in all of its campaign, leveraged on the power of hashtags combined with other
social media strategy to engage with its audience. The launch of OnePlus 6T, for example, in
NY city was live streamed on Twitter and it was quite a successful campaign.
#NeverSettle is a hashtag that born out of OnePlus and it has been using this hashtag in all of
its marketing campaigns.
To different people, #NeverSettle means different things, but I believe the intent was to
position OnePlus as a superior brand among the brands and to pass on a message to phone
users to never settle for a low spec phone just because they might not be able to afford them.
It is said that if you plan to come up with another product in an industry that is already
crowded, the product is got to be at least 10x better in at least one product aspect.
In case of the OnePlus, the affordability of the device paired with the kid of specifications
that it offers works in its favor in the similar fashion.
They pack the best specs into a phone which is considerably better with the other mobile
phones outhereinthemarket.
Let’s do a quick price comparison of the price of OnePlus latest release, the OnePlus 7T, and
Apple’s latest release, iPhone 11 Pro. OnePlus 7T costs INR 38,000 on average while the
average price of iPhone 11 pro is INR 100,000. While that’s how it compares in terms of the
price.
8. Online Sales with no Offline Store at the Beginning
At the core of the OnePlus marketing strategy was the strategical choice of going ahead
with just online sales. Amazon India was the sole and exclusive eCommerce platform from
where theusersorderedtheirphones.
In addition, OnePlus, using the invite only system and online store, was able to properly
manage its inventory and not produce excessively. This is a good strategical move for a
product thatisjuststartingoutinanewcountry.
Now, as OnePlus has moved to the stage of having offline retail stores, it is at a strong
position in the market and has its grip on the market.
Before OnePlus launched in India, it already had a community and that community were
the first customers. Building a community or a tribe is extremely beneficial for a brand is it
drives word of mouth, which is undoubtedly an extremely happy state for the marketing
efforts of any marketer.
Apart from this, the UGC (user generated content) coming in from these members in forms
of reviews or FAQs go a long way in convincing a prospective buyer to make a purchase.
You know how iPhone users build a vibe around a product all over the place and sometimes
you wish to get one even though you don’t really need it? OnePlus loyal community
members is likely to have the same effect on you.
One Plus has gained huge market share by their vision and motto to make great quality
phones and thereby offering directly to consumers with less pricing. They created a massive
change in the smartphone market but we should also understand that the Smartphone industry
is quite dynamic and constantly needs changes and improvements to sustain in the market.

CHAPTER 4
As early as five years ago, OnePlus was barely a blip on the radar to the general tech
consumer. Nowadays, the brand is becoming very well known as a global powerhouse in the
smartphone industry. It’s also starting to branch out to other technology markets.
The OnePlus Smartphone performed very well in battery life test. At 4115mAh, the Nord
doesn't have the largest battery in its price category but thanks to the low power Snapdragon
765G chipset, the phone achieves a satisfactory run time.
3. Do you like the Performance of OnePlus Smartphones ?
By Above graph we can see that most of one plus users are happy with their smartphones as
majority of the users at 85% has said Yes to the question.
Coming back to the performance, as mentioned before, the Nord performs exceptionally well.
This was especially a surprise to us because the phone does not ship with the latest and
greatest flagship chipset. Instead, it has the Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G, which isn't bad on
paper and also one of Qualcomm's faster chips.
4. Do you like Using Oxygen OS ?
Many Users love Oxygen OS as 75% of the people has said that they like using oxygen OS
We Can Say that While super-quick updates may not be OnePlus' forte, the company has
made a name for itself when it comes to fast and clean UI design. Over the years, OnePlus
has made many changes to OxygenOS but the focus has always been on keeping it clean and
keeping it working smoothly, so you never get the feeling of wading through years of
accumulated cruft that you get when using some of the other custom implementations of
Android.
big part of this is the UI. While not "stock" by any stretch of the imagination, OnePlus has
carefully chosen a design language that closely mimics Google's design. This gives the user
the impression of using a near-stock UI but at the same time one that is much more
customizable. This customizability works across all levels, from the launcher to the default
OnePlus apps, to the OS itself.
5. Will you Prefer OnePlus Brand products to Other Users ?
Over 90% of the Survey Respondents has Stated that They are willing to Prefer OnePlus
brand products to others , This can say quite a lot about company’s Goodwill as we can see
that OnePlus has created a Customer Loyalty.
From The Above graph we can see that Majority of OnePlus are not willing to buy OnePlus
TV as 52% of our respondents said no As many people disliked the specification sheet of
OnePlus TV
CHAPTER 5
Findings, Suggestions & Conclusion
Findings
OnePlus already has India as its biggest market while it keeps expanding into other
countries. OnePlus offered and continues to offer an extremely good alternative to high
end phones at a lower price without compromising the quality in the process. This, alone,
contributed immensely to its success.
Most startups with little or no capital are always scared that they would remain an
underdog because of how big their competitors are. With these takeaways, I am sure you
can now see that you don’t need big money to outsell your competitors, rather what
you need is a big marketing strategy.
OnePlus wants to focus on the premium segment and that is reflecting clearly in the
choices. “As a brand grows, you tend to become growth-oriented and lose focus of your
identity. OnePlus has chosen to stay consistent to its positioning and identity. Their new
marketi OnePlus marketing strategy has changed a lot with adoption of new methods.
“They are exploring new and innovative ideas, especially on the digital front in order to
add value to their campaigns. Innovative marketing tech is the way forward for all brands
today and OnePlus is utilising this aspect very well. As a result, creative digital
technology is a part of their strategy for every campaign and it is evident from their recent
executions new and emerging fields like Facebook AR.
OnePlus lives its tenet of 'Never Settle' and through that also unsettles the market with its
approach. It has made a mark in the premium phones category and with these tie-ups, it
has upped the ante again as they have the potential to be game-changers for the brand as
also for the industry.
Suggestions
OnePlus has a much smaller roster by comparison. This enables the company to give
more focus to its devices than some of its competitors. This is a similar strategy as the
one adopted by Apple, which also releases a very small selection of phones each year.
Unfortunately, as OnePlus gets bigger, its roster is also growing. Time will tell if it
keeps its roster manageable or if it becomes another Samsung.
One of the most contentious topics amongst OnePlus fans is how the company has
raised its pricing over the years. While it’s true that OnePlus phones are more
expensive now than they’ve ever been, the brand’s overall pricing strategy is still
competitive. It’s just not releasing flagship-tier phones for $300 anymore — as it did
in its early years.
When you compare OnePlus phones to the bigshots in the Android world —
especially Samsung and Huawei — it’s plain to see that OnePlus offers a lot for
sometimes hundreds of dollars less. For example, the OnePlus 8 has many similar
specs to the Samsung Galaxy S20 yet costs $300 less. Even the OnePlus 8 Pro —
which is very analogous in specs and features to Samsung flagships — starts at $899,
significantly less than top-tier flagships of 2020.
While the days of ultra-cheap yet ultra-powerful OnePlus phones are long gone and
likely never coming back, OnePlus hasn’t completely abandoned its status as a wallet-
friendly brand.
Conclusion
We can conclude that the OnePlus has a strong hold on their fundamentals. Their strategy,
execution and implementation are aligned with the mission, vision and values of the
organization. The process of positioning the brand in the mind of the customers is well
defined. They managed to get a space in the minds of the consumer and the brand projected
out, got positioned. They are crystal clear in what they want to be and where they want to be
in the mind of customers. we can also conclude that due to their constant efforts and great
marketing strategies. One plus has emerged as the market the market leader in the premium
Smartphone market with 44% of the market share in India.
