Following the overwhelming response to OnePlus 3/3T Soft Gold variants last year, OnePlus has launched a limited edition Soft Gold OnePlus 5 recently. By further developing the sandblasting process, the finish of the Soft Gold OnePlus 5 is 30% finer than that of previous OnePlus Soft Gold devices, sources said. The limited-edition OnePlus 5 Soft Gold comes with 6 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage will be available for INR 32,999 in India through our exclusive sales partner, Amazon.in as well as on oneplusstore.in.
Speaking on the new launch, Vikas Agarwal, General Manager, OnePlus India, said “As a maker of the most beautifully designed smartphones, it gives us immense joy to introduce the latest OnePlus 5 with even more refined and elegant Soft Gold finish this festival season. The latest OnePlus 5 Soft Gold will appeal to those who are looking for the perfect balance of beautiful design and powerful features.”
It takes an average of 180 days to create and perfect a coating of soft gold. Getting a perfectly even and light color starts with running premium aluminum alloy through a diamond cutter. The surface is then sandblasted and polished with intense precision. Each second matters in this process, or the anodized color takes on a different shade. It’s an extensive process, but the result is worth it- a stunning matte finish, pleasing to see and feel.
