OnePlus has made an official announcement that it will cease its operations in Europe and North America. The move marks the end of the brand’s presence in the Western regions, which has been rumored for the past few weeks.
The official announcement emphasizes that new OnePlus products will no longer be released for the European and North American markets. However, users of already purchased gadgets will not be left without attention: the company promises to continue releasing software updates and security patches according to the previously established schedule. Customer support channels will continue to operate to provide warranty coverage and handle user requests.
Community and software changes
Users should be aware of the shutdown date for North American services: The official North American Community website and app ceased operations on August 16, 2026 at 11:59 pm Eastern Time (ET).
