So, how did this happen? Well, the only logical explanation is that the agency which manages the social media accounts of OnePlus and Samsung is the same. Before you ask, yes, most brands usually appoint an agency to handle their social media accounts. It is possible that the social media managing agency might have forgotten to switch accounts before posting the tweet. It is also possible that an angry employee at OnePlus promoted the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra just to take revenge! But come on, that is a rare possibility. Although this is most likely an accident, it definitely gave people a good reason to laugh at the brand.
OnePlus too is taking this whole incident in jest as it later posted another tweet asking Samsung to promote the upcoming OnePlus Nord 2.
OnePlus has made this blunder mistake right around the time when it is being heavily criticised on social media platforms for limiting the performance of the OnePlus 9 series smartphones. For those who are unaware, it recently came to light that the Snapdragon 888 SoC in the OnePlus 9 smartphone isn't running at its full potential in almost all popular applications. The brand has accepted that it has limited the performance of these smartphones. In its defence, OnePlus says that the brand has taken this step to improve the battery life and solve the heating issues in the OnePlus 9 and the OnePlus 9 Pro.
