OPPO leaves France as smartphone sales decline
The journey of OPPO in the European market witnessed a lot of ups and downs. Back in May 2023, some reports suggested that OPPO and OnePlus could leave France. As of now, it appears like the time has arrived to exit the French market. Well, the primary reason behind this decision seems to be the closure of sales at Yang Technology. Yang Technology is the biggest distributor of OPPO in France.
This is quite intriguing since the Chinese OEM won the patent battle against Nokia. Reportedly, the two companies have been facing each other regarding patent litigation for about the last two years. It’s likely that OPPO is exiting the French market before taking any chances because it doesn’t want to take any unnecessary risks. The business promises to keep providing after-sales services to current OPPO customers.
Almost three months back, it was reported that the German website of OPPO had completely gone away. Now the company is leaving France. All such moves suggest that OPPO is gradually moving out of the European market. Besides this, the company claims that it won’t make a comeback until or unless it finds a new distributor in the region. Therefore, if you live in France and want to buy an OPPO phone, you must buy it from a reseller.
The company will continue offering Customer services to recurrent OPPO customers in France
OPPO may be leaving France because, despite winning the patent dispute with Nokia, it is unwilling to deal with any additional legal proceedings there. In order to ensure that all customers can continue to use Oppo devices, users will acquire after-sales services. Moreover, they will get further operating system updates. In this way, OPPO has assured that Customer service has been taken over by the company.
