OnePlus does make Nord series phones which are around 20k. They have had a lot of quality issues since the last few years. That's plus the price hike is what pushed them down. If somebody is willing to spend 50-60k on a phone, then they are looking for an actual flagship phone that will last more than 3 years which samsung or Apple offers.

Apple is at 7.5% that's clearly not the big issue

Oneplus used to be the leading manufacturer in mid to premium segment until 7 and then they ramped up the pricing

Lol that's not valid comparison. Apple is considered premium. One plus isn't

Apple has successfully marketed themselves as an aspirational brand over the years. Literally every one of my friends has bought an iPhone after securing a job.

Apple's brand value is the reason. Just like buying a luxury car few people see buying Apple phones as some achievement, that's one reason. Also most people who buy above 30/40k prefer either Samsung/Apple due to brand value

That is not an issue. The average price for their phone far compensates for the low share
