OnePlus is reportedly working on a phone with a ceramic casing.
OnePlusis reportedly planning an interesting and unique edition of the upcoming OnePlus Ace 3 Pro.
It’ll have a quad-camera unit on the back, it is said, and might come in both leather and glass-backed versions.
The phone will apparently boast a 6.78-inch OLED 1.5K display with a 120Hz refresh rate, which could look pretty excellent, but this ceramic version is the most curious part of its prospective launch.
It is claimed to look a lot like the extremely shiny finish on Bugatti’s ceramic supercar and has required some work on OnePlus' end to come up with a process to fire the ceramic case correctly. Exactly what ramifications it’ll have where durability is concerned isn’t quite clear.

Since the Ace series has so far been exclusive to China, you also shouldn’t get your hopes up about picking up a ceramic OnePlus of your own if you’re outside that territory – it’s unlikely to be on sale more widely.
In fact, we’ll be curious to learn how many of this version OnePlus actually makes, and how much more expensive it’ll be compared to the standard version of the OnePlus Ace 3 Pro.
Until we get some official images, though, it’ll remain unknown how successfully OnePlus has managed to imitate the look of Bugatti’s ceramic experiment. If it nails it, though, the ceramic version of the phone could well prove a hit – everyone wants a phone that stands out at least a little, after all. Why not one that stands out a lot?
