Electrochromic glass, a technology based on colour change, equips the smartphone with an invisible camera. This technology was adopted from the car industry for the glass cover of the camera. By conducting an electric current through the glass, the glass cover can switch between opaque and transparent in less than a second. When the camera is not in use, the glass cover is opaque and the lenses in the flat surface are not visible. The camera field is framed by a leather cover coloured in papaya orange.
Statement by the Jury
This elegant concept smartphone from OnePlus impresses with a 24-carat gold trim on the frame and with electrochromic glass technology borrowed from the automotive industry.
