OnePlus has been growing worldwide. The brand began its journey in South Asia and has now expanded in the US and Europe.

In Europe, the company has reached the mark of three million users registered on the website. On this occasion, OnePlus has announced the launch of its “One for All” campaign. 

The OnePlus “One for All” campaign will begin on April 21 and it will last three days. It ends on April 23. The company will be offering discounts on several of its products, but not the latest ones. It will offer discounts of up to 25% on certain OnePlus devices and accessories. You’ll get a €150 discount on the OnePlus 8T. Further, if you are planning to get the OnePlus 8 Pro, it will be offered at a €100 discount. On the other hand, the OnePlus Nord series will also be seeing a price cut of €50. 

Moreover, there will be a draw that will bring additional discounts of up to 50% on already reduced products and the grand prize – the limited edition OnePlus Collectible.

Apple’s latest AirPods Pro have dropped to one of its lowest prices ever. You can currently grab a pair of AirPods Pro for just $197, which means you get to save $52 upon purchase over at Amazon.com. These wireless earphones feature transparency mode, active noise cancelation, water and sweat resistance, and 24 hours of battery life with their wireless charging case.

Now, if you still think that paying $197 for a pair of earphones may be a bit excessive, you can also consider grabbing a pair of Powerbeats Pro since they’re selling for $180 over at B&H. This translates to a whopping $70 discount, and you can choose between the Black, Navy, and Ivory color options since the other color variants are selling without a discount.

However, the Klipsch T5 II True Wireless Sport Earphones are another good option, and you can grab a pair for as low as $151.11 with $77.89 savings.

Finally, the Skullcandy Sesh Evo True Wireless In-Ear Headphones are getting a 50 percent discount, meaning that you can grab a pair for just $30.

Now, B&H has more interesting offers, as you can currently grab a new OnePlus 8 with 128GB, Verizon Unlocked version for just $470, which means $330 savings. In comparison, you can get the same phone at OnePlus.com but for $499, even though you can also score a free warp charge 30 car charger with your purchase.
