Agarwal added that initially OnePlus will only manufacture the 64GB variant of the OnePlus 3T. On being asked whether the company plans to manufacture the 128GB variant as well, Agarwal responded, "We will see how the market requirement comes. As 128GB is more premium so it will depend on the response from the market and we can take a call on it only after the initial response is positive."

Talking to Gadgets 360, Agarwal stressed that the company will promote its brand new exclusive e-commerce platform in India. The company's official website - oneplusstore.in - was launched in October and sells OnePlus accessories via the store. Consumers however are redirected to Amazon India when they try to buy any smartphone from the store.
