In India, the companyannouncedthat, in the first 10 minutes of availability on Amazon, the OnePlus 6 generated over one billion rupees (approximately $14.7 million) in revenue. OnePlus released the device in Indiaon May 21 exclusively via its own website and on Amazon Prime, before general availability starting today.

Of course, we don’t actually know how these numbers compare to sales of previous devices made by OnePlus. When theOnePlus 5Twas released late last year, the company announced that itbroke its own launch day sales recordsin only six hours. However, at the time, OnePlus did not release what the actual numbers were.
Nonetheless, 100,000 devices in 12 minutes in one country certainly sounds promising. It will be interesting to see if the OnePlus 6 can now go on to beat the opening day sales record set by the OnePlus 5T.
