OnePlus is expanding to a new market.
To celebrate the success of Dash Charge and build on its branding, . Yes, an energy drink. What would it be called? Well of course simply Dash Energy.
Just like the wall charger, Dash Energy drink will give your body a day's power in half an hour — at least, that's the goal. I suppose that depends on if you consider yourself a "power user" beyond just your smartphone habits.
Yes, this is quite obviously taking advantage of April 1 to make an April Fool's Day joke (as it's done the past couple years). But OnePlus is actually making these energy drinks in limited quantities — it even sent us a couple to try. This is a seriously impressive length to go to for a gag, to be honest.
Since it has made some of these drinks for real, OnePlus is giving out these own-branded at physical locations in London and Bangalore, as well as having a raffle across Europe to have a four pack of the "highly limited edition" drink. Good on OnePlus for following through, I guess? Here are the details:
- London: Giving away a limited number of cans of Dash Energy on the streets of London from 12-4pm at Bishops Square, Spitalfields, London E1 6EW
- Europe: Enter the raffle online at OnePlus.net for your chance to win a four pack of the highly limited Dash Energy drink! Just enter at: https://forums.oneplus.net/raffles/
- India: Visit OnePlus Experience Store in Bangalore on April 1st from 11am IST onwards
There is one part of this that's no joke, though: OnePlus is offering a limited time sale , knocking 15% off. The bundle includes a Dash Charge wall charger and a Dash-capable USB-C cable. It's regularly priced at $34.90, so dropping it down to about $30 is nice if you're looking to pick up a second Dash Charge charger .
