As the years went by, however, OnePlus devices have become pricier, while still slightly cheaper than the top flagships from Apple and Samsung. Nowadays, the company typically launches a couple of flagship devices each year, typically in a regular and a "pro" variant, but none of them fall into the category of truly affordable phones. For example, the company's last flagship, the OnePlus 8 Pro, started at $899, while the regular OnePlus 8 started at $699.
