“Our latest device epitomizes our work with colette, reflecting our shared attention to detail and devotion to experiences of unparalleled quality,” the company said in a release on Wednesday.

OnePlus said that the new limited edition phones were ‘painstakingly designed smartphones,’ and the company would open its doors to sales on March 21 in Paris, France at 11am.

The company further added that on a first-come-first-serve basis customers would get a free pair of OnePlus Bullets earphones to go along with the phone.

The 128GB storage variant has been priced at 479 Euros, approximately Rs 33,500 and the company said only 250 units will be available for sale.

Details of the phone being available in other countries have not been announced by the company.

In an earlier report Zeebiz had speculated the device to be blue in colour; however, the soon to release phone will be available in black with Colette’s logo engraved at the back.

“To celebrate the acclaimed fashion boutique’s 20th anniversary, we have produced 250 specially engraved units of the exclusive all-black OnePlus 3T featuring the famous Colette logo,” the company said.

The phone will have the same specifications as the OnePlus 3T which was launched at a starting price of Rs 29,999 and came in both 64GB and 128GB storage space.

It had features resembling the company’s flagship device – OnePlus and had newer 64-bit 2.35GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 processor and 6GB RAM.
