OnePlus announces limited edition Thunder Purple OnePlus 6T
Just two weeks afterthe launch of the OnePlus 6Tthe company has announced a limited edition purple model. It’ll sell alongside the gloss and matt black versions already on shelves.
It apes the colour gradient design seen onHuawei’s P20 Prowith a matt black and purple two tone finish that changes in different lights. Like the black 6T models it also shows an ‘S’ shaped curve when the light hits it.
In ourOnePlus 6T reviewwe praised the phone for its value for money, improved design and cameras and top battery life. It remains one of the best phones you can buy despite lacking waterproofing and wireless charging.
The Thunder Purple edition 6T is available with8GB RAM and 128GB storage for £529/$579 direct from OnePlusfrom 15 November. It’s limited to Europe and North America.
It’s the only version you can get but it is priced at the same as the lack versions with the same specs.
In the UK you can also get it fromCarphone Warehouse,AmazonandJohn Lewis onlineor in store.
Usually OnePlus waits till mid product cycle toannounce new coloursof its phones. It might end up irking some early 6T buyers that this purple one is available so soon after they’ve just bought a black model. At leastthe official cases are quite nice.
See what OnePlus has got planned next on 11 December.
