Smartphone maker OnePlus collaborated with racing giants McLaren to create a limited edition mobile device that is elegant and described as ‘lightning fast’.
The OnePlus 7T Pro McLaren edition draws inspiration from its signature McLaren design offering users a combination of power and beauty. It features a papaya orange colour in tribute to its racing history as well as its current McLaren Racing Formula 1 car.
Mike Flewitt, chief executive of McLaren Automotive, is delighted with the joint venture which follows on the success of their past partnership following last year’s successful ‘Salute to Speed’ launch. He added: “The OnePlus 7T Pro McLaren Edition celebrates our brands’ shared passion for design, craftmanship and innovation and we look forward to seeing how this is received by McLaren and technology fans worldwide.”
The smartphone features Alcantara, a soft premium material used in the interior of McLaren cars that is used for both durability and unparalleled grip. The cell also includes animations, themes and wallpapers exclusive to the brand, allowing users to explore its racing history and iconic livery. The lock screen features a minimalist clock display, inspired by McLaren’s dashboard instrumentation and notifications, are illuminated with a papaya orange glow.
The smartphone is available overseas for approximately BD428.
