Earlier this month, OnePlus founder Pete Lau announced that the brand would be integrating some aspects of its business with bigger BBK Electronics sibling OPPO. Lau mentioned that the move would help OnePlus streamline its operations while taking advantage of OPPOâs resources.
Now, unlike OPPO, OnePlus was positioned as a premium offering, an android equivalent of Appleâs iPhone. Like iPhone, OnePlus also offered a distinct product and brand experience, but at an accessible price point. This was being driven and supported by a strong global community of fans.

Despite the precautionary layers of checks and approvals, a brand can land itself in a (troll)soup on social media for literally no fault of its own. But what really matters is how it emerges from the muck, unscathed or with as little damage as possible.
