According to some recent reports, the company might be taking this opportunity to launch a new OnePlus TV, which will compete against Xiaomi's Mi TV by offering premium flagship design at a budget price. Notably, OnePlus CEO Pete Lau announced last year that they have plans on bringing such product to the market soon.
