Optiemus Infracom has announced that its subsidiary Optiemus Electronics (OEL) has partnered Chinese consumer electronics firm OnePlus to manufacture locally high value IoT devices in India.

The partnership aligns with OnePlus’ ‘Project Starlight’ initiative to expand localisation of products and manufacturing.

OnePlus has expanded its local manufacturing capabilities beyond smartphones, with its IoT product portfolio now being produced at OEL’s Noida plant.

OnePlus’ IoT offerings include True Wireless Stereo (TWS) devices and wireless neckbands.

Our partnership with OEL to manufacture IoT products locally reflects our strong commitment to Project Starlight. This collaboration is not just about technology—it’s about empowering local communities, creating meaningful innovation, and bringing smarter, more connected experiences to our India community.”

Our collaboration with OnePlus marks a significant step in this journey, as we come together to co-create a future shaped by innovation and excellence. We specialise in transforming ideas into reality, and this partnership empowers us to manufacture high-quality IoT products. Together, we will continue to explore new frontiers and remain committed to playing a pivotal role in shaping the future of electronics manufacturing in India.”
