Chinese smartphone maker OnePlus is expected to launch a designer product to add to their lineup. Invites have been sent out with Jean-Charles de Castelbajac (JCC) and OnePlus logo, indicating the possibility of a designer product.
The invite is dated September 19 and says “When the Style meets its Machine, one night in September in Paris”. The event is being held in Paris and might see a new smartphone just like the earlier OnePlus 3T Colette Edition.
After the launch of the OnePlus 5, the company had launched a Soft Gold color limited edition OnePlus 5. The Slate Gray OnePlus 5 was also launched in the Indian market recently.
To recall, the OnePlus 5 comes with a 5.5-inch Full HD Optic AMOLED panel. It comes with a 16MP + 20MP dual camera setup at the back. The main camera offers up to 1.6x Optical Zoom. A 16MP front-facing camera sits above the display for selfies and video calling.
Powered by a Snapdragon 835 processor, the OnePus 5 comes with up to 128GB memory and with up to 8GB RAM. It comes with Android 7.1.1 Nougat with Oxygen OS on top.

About Jean-Charles de Castelbajac (JCC)
Jean-Charles de Castelbajac is a fashion designer, renowned for his collections worn by Madonna and Helen Christensen. While OnePlus has entered into a venture with JCC, we can only imagine what may be there in store for us.
We think this could either be a whole new smartphone or accessories added to the OnePlus ecosystem, or it could be something else entirely. There may be a collection of add-ons or functional covers with a designer signature from JCC.
