OnePlus phone users, whose warranty on devices ends between March 1 to May 30, can avail extended warranty for their devices until May 31 as well.

Oppo is also following a similar extended timeline, and has initiated an online repair service that help customers with basic troubleshooting and software related issues.

Xiaomi, in response to an emailed query, said the company has received a few queries regarding the warranty period during the lockdown. "...we will ensure that we serve their requirements as soon as the situation enables us to," a Xiaomi spokesperson said.
