Could OnePlus Be Working On A Drone? Company’s CEO Seemingly Confirms

Last week OnePlus posted a teaser in which they stated that they would be unveiling a new game changing product. Subsequent images revealed a product hidden under a cover and another image showed hands holding an invisible object, which at that time many had speculated could be for a gaming console.

However as it turns out, chances are the company could be unveiling a drone instead. In fact during a recent Reddit AMA, OnePlus CEO Carl Pei posted the screenshot above which more or less confirmed that the company was working on a drone. If you think that it sounds a little ludicrous, think again as a few months ago, the company actually teased such an idea although we’re not sure if many got the clue back then.

But the question is in what way is a drone a game changer? After all there are plenty of amazing drones out there available to customers, so in what way could OnePlus make a drone that might outdo other manufacturers with years of experience? If we had to guess, perhaps competing on price is a possibility as a super affordable drone would no doubt make it more accessible to customers who were put off by drones with more expensive price tags.

In any case it remains to be seen what OnePlus could do to change the game, but the announcement has been pegged for April so we guess we’ll just have to sit tight and see what happens then.
