OnePlus recently launched OnePlus 5T Star Wars Edition smartphone in India. The announcement took place during Comic Con in Bengaluru, India.

There were reports suggesting that the phone will be exclusive in India. However, the company has now confirmed that the OnePlus 5T Star Wars Edition will be available in Europe.

In its official blog post, OnePlus announced that the OP 5T Star Wars Edition will be available for purchase in Denmark, Finland, and Sweden. Further, it added that the early customers will be able to get it on December 13 at the premiere of The Last Jedi that’ll be shown at Tennis Palace.

Even though the smartphone was first announced in India, it will be first available in Europe. In India, the limited edition phone will be launched on December 14 at Carnival Cinemas Wadala, Mumbai. The tickets for the same will be available from Paytm on December 7.

The OnePlus 5T Star Wars Edition comes in white colour along with the familiar Star Wars logo engraved in red ink on the back panel, at the bottom of the phone. The alert slider has also been coloured red but the volume rocker and the power button remains black.

Globally, the OnePlus 5T smartphone is available in only one colour — Midnight Black. In China, it is also available in Lava Red colour. If you want the phone in White colour, this limited edition model seems to be the only choice as of now.

All the specification on this limited edition device remains same as the standard model. To remind you of the specs, the device comes with a 6-inch edge-to-edge full-screen display with an 18:9 aspect ratio. Under the hood, the phone is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor along with 6GB/8GB RAM and 64GB/128GB internal storage.

Apart from the display, another major improvement in the OnePlus 5T is the camera. It comes with a rear-mounted dual camera system that features a f/1.7 aperture 16-megapixel camera sensor and a f/1.7 aperture 20-megapixel camera sensor. There is also a front-facing camera of 20-megapixels which has a f/2.0 aperture.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi is slated to release on Dec. 15. Fresh information suggests that OnePlus may release a special edition version of OnePlus 5T in celebration of the upcoming Star Wars movie.

A news report on XDA Developers that has been taken down for unknown reason stated that an anonymous reader found plenty of references for Star Wars in the OnePlus 5 Android Oreo closed beta build. After digging more into it, it was found that there could be a special edition of the forthcoming OnePlus 5T.

It was discovered that the OxygenOS seems to be tied to the theme of the movie as there is a reference to the color accent of Star Wars in the code finds. The string “accent_star_wars” was found in APKs for Launcher, Settings and System UI. The hex code for the accent color is #ff2837 which is similar to the dark red color that can be found on the posters of the forthcoming Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Hence, the speculated limited edition of OnePlus 5T may sport the same color on its exterior.

OnePlus has previously released special edition smartphones like the OnePlus 3T Colette edition and Midnight Black variant for 3T. In September, the Chinese firm had also released OnePlus 5 JCC+ edition. Hence, it is likely that the Chinese firm could be prepping a special version of the OnePlus 5T to promote the new Star Wars movie.

OnePlus 5T will be officially announced on Thursday. The Chinese firm is unlikely to announce the rumored Star Wars edition of the OnePlus 5T at its launch event. The limited edition variant may get unveiled around the release date of Star Wars: The Last Jedi.
