Just like the OnePlus 6, the new 6T is available as standard only in the Mirror Black and Midnight Black variants, but a third much more attractive model seems to be standing around the corner. Thanks to a little known blog called Mr. Gizmo (nice name, from elsewhere), we have the chance to discover the "Thunder Purple" OnePlus 6T in all its splendor today in a quartet of press releases high quality leaks.
There is no doubt in our minds that these images are legitimate because they illustrate the beautiful back, front and sides of a handset that you probably will not be able to buy at T-Mobile in the United States. This would obviously be amazing, but knowing OnePlus, this wonder will not fail to hit a limited number of markets with limited stock, at least initially.
It's hard not to think about Huawei's degraded patterns when you look at these promotional images of this unprecedented OnePlus 6T option, but it would not be fair to call the phone with a copier. These are quite unique shades that the 6T switches, ranging from dark purple to the closest to lavender.
In addition, we can all probably agree that more smartphone manufacturers need to "hijack" the gradient effect to help high-end mobile devices to shine (both figuratively and literally) .
It remains to be seen if this is the only additional color option provided for the OnePlus 6T or if there may be a red or white version in the pipeline. By the way, there are no words yet on a release date for Thunder Purple, but an official announcement could be canceled from one day to the next.
