Oppo raises prices of three budget phones in India
Oppo announced a price increase for its three mid‑range smartphones sold in India – the K14, K14x and A6s – effective from 20 July. The revisions add up to about ₹4,000 across all RAM and storage variants. For example, the 6 GB + 128 GB K14 now costs ₹21,999 (up from ₹19,999) and the top 8 GB + 256 GB version is priced at ₹27,999 (up from ₹23,999). The K14x sees a ₹1,000 lift, while the A6s variants rise to ₹21,999–₹24,999 from ₹20,999–₹22,999. Oppo attributes the hikes to rising component costs and a global shortage of memory chips. The updated pricing is reflected on Oppo India's website, and similar price adjustments have recently been reported for other Chinese brands such as OnePlus, Realme, Xiaomi and Samsung.
