Yesterday OnePlus shared a video on their Youtube
Official channel, showing people’s reaction to a product hidden inside a
mysterious box with the Company Logo. Just by checking the video we can see
people mentioning a different texture feeling and some even mentions the
Sandstone versions of OnePlus and OnePlus 2.
The first OnePlus smartphone to feature a metallic
build was the 2016’s OnePlus 3T. Previously the company used a mix of
polycarbonate with a Sandstone textured rear. Since its release, the distinct
texture feeling of the back was something that highlighted the handset in
comparison to the other devices in the glossy plastic era.
As people’s reaction is just teasing we are guessing
that this new product inside the box may be a new Sandstone variant of the
recently released OnePlus 5T. The option of this being a new Sandstone case is
just discarded by the fact that the company already delivered such protective
case to the handset.
Currently, the Smartphone is only available in the
Midnight Black variant, but there is also the Red and the Star Wars variants,
but those ones aren’t being offered worldwide. Assuming that the product inside
the box is, in fact, a Sandstone OnePlus 5T we imagine this new variant to go
worldwide due to its success among users. Worth nothing to mention that some
teasers and leaks also pointed the arrival of a White&Gold colored variant.
OnePlus states that the content of the Mysterious
box will be revealed in January 2018. Since there are only two days remaining
at the end of 2017 and the new year is just in the corner we expect more
details to appear very soon.
