Smartphone maker OnePlus has once again raised the prices of its premium Nord-series device, the OnePlus Nord 6, in the Indian market. This marks the second price hike for the smartphone within just a week.

 

The latest development was highlighted by tipster Sanju Chaudhary on social media platform X, where it was revealed that both storage variants of the smartphone have received an additional price increase of ₹1,000.

 

OnePlus Nord 6 New Price in India

 

Following the latest revision, the updated pricing of the OnePlus Nord 6 is as follows:

 

8GB RAM + 256GB Storage: ₹42,999

12GB RAM + 256GB Storage: ₹47,999

 

Just a few days earlier, these variants were priced at ₹41,999 and ₹46,999 respectively.

 

How Much Has the Price Increased Since Launch?

 

OnePlus originally launched the Nord 6 in India in April. At launch, the pricing was significantly lower:

 

8GB + 256GB variant: ₹38,999

Higher RAM variant: ₹41,999

 

This means:

 

The base model has become costlier by ₹4,000

The higher-end variant has witnessed a total hike of ₹6,000

 

The repeated price revisions have now pushed the smartphone well beyond the sub-₹40,000 segment where it initially competed.

Despite the price hike, the OnePlus Nord 6 continues to offer flagship-grade specifications and premium hardware.

Buyers May Need to Reconsider Timing

 

With consecutive price hikes in such a short period, many buyers may now reconsider purchasing the OnePlus Nord 6 at its revised pricing. While the smartphone continues to offer premium specifications, the higher price places it in direct competition with several flagship-level alternatives already available in the Indian market.

 

Industry experts believe the price increase could be linked to rising component costs, currency fluctuations, and increasing demand in the premium smartphone segment.
