According to an ITHome report, OnePlus China president Li Jie states that the design of the OnePlus Ace is inspired by straight lines to deliver a powerful and speedy look. To make sure that the users feel comfortable while holding this device, the company has provided a subtle edge arc using a “2.5D step processing.”

The verticle straight lines on the back of the device are inspired by waterfalls to again provide a sense of speed. Other than that, the executive shared that the device weighs 186 grams and is 8.2mm thick. To reduce the thickness of the device, OnePlus has redesigned the body to make it “flatter.” The OnePlus Ace has a flexible OLED flat screen which goes along with the straight line aesthetics.
