And it is now the turn of a well -known telephony brand to have to adapt. As spotted by Android Authoritythe price of the OnePlus Watch 3 has just increased, from US $ 329 to US $ 499, an increase of USD 170 (more than 50 % of the starting price).
The calendar could not be more cruel for the manufacturer, who had to postpone the release of his connected watch (initially expected for February) because of a typography error. This indeed displayed the incorrect mention “Meda in China”rather than the traditional “Made in China”.
A blunder that costs even more today, now that the device is subject to new customs duties. It is in any case ironic that it is the sentence indicating that the smartwatch is made in China which causes all these problems in OnePlus. At US $ 500, the manufacturer should not sell a lot on the other side of the Atlantic.
