That’s higher than the official SRP
With each release of the flagship killer, online retailer Widget City has always tried to be the first seller to offer the new device. The launch of the OnePlus 6 is no different, and the outfit has already laid out pre-order pricing for both the 64GB and 128GB version of the phone ahead of its official release in the Philippines.

But people looking to nab the flagship killer at under 30K will be disappointed since the phone starts at Php 30,990 for the 64GB model. That’s above the $529 (around Php 27.7K) SRP that the phone comes with in the US. The 128GB variant is a bit more, at Php P33,990, again higher than the $579 (Php 30.3K) SRP in the US.
At that price, the OnePlus 6 is beaten by its two budget flagship competitors, namely the Xiaomi Mi Mix 2s, retailing at Php 27,990 for the 6GB/64GB and the ASUS ZenFone 5z which retails for Php 29,995 for the 6GB/128GB version.
