OnePlus and its parent company, Oppo, plan to announce in the coming days that OnePlus brand will be leaving the US and European markets, according to a machine translation of a WinFuture report. 
Should the exit actually happen, it will mark a conclusion to months of rumors about the future of OnePlus. 
Android Headlines said in January that OnePlus was being “dismantled,” though OnePlus, in a statement at the time, said that “OnePlus North America continues to operate, with full guarantee of users’ after-sales support, software updates, and rights commitments.” 
In March, 9to5Google reported that OnePlus might cease operations in global markets. 
In April, Android Authority detailed how top staffers at OnePlus had recently left in Europe and the UK, with a company spokesperson saying in a statement that “OnePlus Europe is evaluating its regional roadmap and product strategy.” 
OnePlus didn’t immediately reply to a request for comment from The Verge.
