OnePlus has teased its latest concept smartphone, the OnePlus 11 Concept, ahead of its official launch at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) on February 27. As the name suggests, the smartphone will be a special iteration of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC-powered OnePlus 11, and will mainly focus on the exterior design, according to the company.
One unique feature is the blue pipelines on the back of the phone that give it the appearance of having its own series of blood vessels, which could likely change color, similar to the LED lights on the back of Nothing Phone (1). The teaser suggests that the OnePlus 11 Concept will use a carbon fiber exterior, offering increased durability without increasing the overall weight.
OnePlus CEO Pete Lau has been promoting the OnePlus 11 Concept video on Twitter, where the video suggests that the phone may have a quad curve display, with the screen curving at all four edges, including the top and bottom edges, in addition to the left and right edges. This is a more advanced version of the curved display that is already being used in several entry-level mid-budget phones, such as Realme 10 Pro+.
The camera bump on the OnePlus 11 Concept appears to be quite prominent compared to the one on the regular version, suggesting that OnePlus is tweaking the camera department on this smartphone. For the regular version, OnePlus partnered with Hasselblad to tune the rear camera system.
OnePlus is also offering five lucky community members the chance to see the concept smartphone in person and share their findings with global users.
The regular OnePlus 11 is already available in two variants and colors, making it the most affordable Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC-powered smartphone globally. The base variant costs $699 and the top model with 16GB of RAM and 256GB of storage carries a price tag of $799. The phone supports 100W fast charging, and the charger is included in the box.
The OnePlus 11 (review here) also comes with a 120Hz 6.7-inch display and triple cameras on the back, including a 50-megapixel primary camera, a 48-megapixel ultra-wide camera, and a 32-megapixel telephoto camera. Overall, the OnePlus 11 has proven to be a popular smartphone, and the upcoming OnePlus 11 Concept is expected to generate even more interest and anticipation among tech enthusiasts.
