Each year OnePlus introduces the special edition of its new mobile phones in partnership with car manufacturers. This year was no exception, with the presentation of OnePlus 7T Pro McLaren Edition along with OnePlus 7T and OnePlus 7T Pro, the Chinese company presents a version with a slight improvement of specifications and a very bold design.
The back cover of the OnePlus 7T Pro McLaren Edition highlights the differences in design compared to normal models. The phone has a different back panel design that shows outlines of a racing car, and the edges have the signature McLaren ‘papaya orange ‘ accents as well, inspired by the colors of the first McLaren racing team.
The design of the back cover with the wooden shafts is inspired by some vehicle models from the manufacturer. At the bottom we have the stylized embossed McLaren logo in silver.
