Five months after the OnePlus 3T 128GB version was announced, the production of the high-end OP3T variant has been discontinued.

But OnePlus‘ official website is showing that the OP3T 128GB version has been discontinued.
According to a OnePlus representative who was responding to an inquiry as to why the company discontinued the 128GB variant, OnePlus needed to focus its efforts one just “one flagship device” beign that the company is a small company.
