India is usually one of the first markets where OnePlus launches its phones, but an extended nationwide lockdown has prevented the manufacturer from selling its phones in the country. That's finally changing, as [OnePlus has announced in a community post](http://that the OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro will go on sale in India starting May 18. That's for the first sale on Amazon India, with general availability kicking off from May 29 across Amazon and retail stores.
The launch is a big deal for the company because India is OnePlus' biggest global market, accounting for over 35% of its sales. There was a backlash when OnePlus failed to reveal Indian pricing for its devices during the global launch, which it rectified quickly.
OnePlus also has the distinction of being the number one manufacturer in the high-end segment in India, a title it wants to defend against Samsung and Apple in 2020. As such, the OnePlus 8 series is being sold for considerably lower than other markets, with the base variant of the OnePlus 8 starting off at just 41,999 ($550). That's $149 less than what the phone retails for in other regions.
Similarly, the OnePlus 8 Pro is going on sale in India for 54,999 ($720), or $180 less than its counterpart in other markets. The OnePlus 8 Pro is particularly interesting because it has 30W wireless charging and IP68 water resistance. Here's the full breakdown of the OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro pricing in India:
