Online sales of the OnePlus 3 will soon be paused across Europe

The company is having difficulty keeping up with demand across the continent.

Starting August 9th, OnePlus will temporarily halt sales of the OnePlus 3 in select European countries as it is struggling to meet demands for the device.

According to a blog post by company co-founder Carl Pei, sales across mainland Europe have been "way better than we expected," which is great news for the company, but possibly frustrating for those still looking to purchase one of the devices. It also has meant that sales would have to be halted to give the company time to replenish their stock of the smartphone.

Luckily, the ceasing of sales won't extend to every country. The blog post notes that Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, France, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia and Spain are included. The OnePlus 3 will be unavailable between August 9th and September 12th.

For prospective buyers in the affected countries still looking to pick one of the phones up, there will be an in-stock notification service on the official web store in place where an email can be provided and one will be sent when the phone is back in stock.
