The Cyberpunk 2077 OnePlus 8T edition phone is awesome

OnePlus has teamed up with the upcoming Cyberpunk 2077 game to create a version of the OnePlus 8T that looks like it was straight out of the game. The special edition phone will be available in limited quantities and will only be for sale in mainland China, so we were very excited to get a model to unwrap and photograph ourselves.

Physically, the phone is practically unchanged from the regular OnePlus 8T. It’s a phone we gave him excellent score in our full review thanks to its great performance, fast loading, and 120Hz display. All those features are in the Cyberpunk edition, but they are all wrapped up in this amazing body.

The back of the phone combines a glossy glass back that appears to have been sandblasted to give a matte effect that looks a bit like carbon fiber.

You’ll find the Cyberpunk logo etched in glowing neon yellow on the bottom of the phone, as well as yellow stripes around the bottom edge of the phone. It certainly stands out.

The 6.55-inch screen hasn’t changed, so the phone feels no different to hold from the regular 8T. However, with such an impressive design, you are unlikely to want to hide it inside a case, be very careful if you take it outside!

As part of the special edition package, the phone comes with these badges. I haven’t played Cyberpunk yet, nor am I familiar with the lore of the game, so “Valentinos” and “The Mox” don’t mean much to me. I think Night City is the main setting on which the game takes place.

The phone runs a China-specific version of the OnePlus software, which has been given a Cyberpunk review, with cool new icons and backgrounds.

The phone looks really amazing, and I personally think it’s a shame that it’s only available in China. It would definitely be on my wish list if a global edition went on sale.
