Please OnePlus, Give the OnePlus 6 More Time

There’s an opportunity to own the summer. OnePlus doesn’t have to worry about an iPhone or Galaxy as of today, but the company oddly decides to have a tight window between flagships. That drives away prospective buyers who want to have the latest and greatest for more than six months.

Its flagships aren’t given room to breathe. Just as people get excited about the current flagship, the next one is near. OnePlus has been doing this for a few years. The OnePlus 3T and OnePlus 5T arrived only five months after their predecessors.

The OnePlus 6 is an excellent choice not only for a tech nerd but also the average person. But it’d be wrong for me not to say the OnePlus 6T will likely be official by November. Around the same time, we’ll see new flagships from Apple and Samsung as well as Google. OnePlus isn’t a household name like them yet.

In the industry, timing matters more than you think. OnePlus does grab plenty of headlines for a solid stretch into the summer, so it should consider giving more time to its first flagship of the year. Those early adopters won’t feel they’ve been ripped off, and OnePlus holds consistency on the market to attract people who might otherwise ignore the brand.

OnePlus cannot continue dancing around the problem. While it’ll never be as popular as the globally-known names right away, it stands a chance at being known. OnePlus just needs to keep a product on the market long enough for people to know it’s there. Then it can serve more than the fervent loyalists and their friends.

If OnePlus doesn’t want to stop using what BBK Electronics shares between its brands, the very least it can do is stop cannibalizing itself and annoying customers by releasing a new flagship on the heels of the last.
