The company notes that it will start with the experience and there will be some select events where it sells phones, but will still primarily sell online. The store will also sell accessories and fan merchandise. however, OnePlus Co-Founder Carl Pei notes that they do not expect demand to go up with the store. Rather, the store is more about the experience and confidence building. The rise in demand may come a year or two later. OnePlus founder, Carl Pei and Pete Lau also confirmed that the company will not be launching more than one device per year and there are no plans to introduce a new version of the OnePlus X. Further, the two are meeting the Karnataka Chief Minister later the day. However, the agenda of the meeting is not yet known.
