Glow-in-the-dark back strips new concept from OnePlus

OnePlus has teased the OnePlus 11 Concept with a blue LED strip design on the back.

Most likely you are thinking of the Nothing Phone (1), which had a transparent back that revealed the internals of the phone, studded with white LEDs around the frame.

OnePlus is readying the concept for Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2023 scheduled for February 27 in Barcelona.

There was a divide of opinion regarding the design of the Nothing Phone (1), depending on whom you asked. Some considered the 'glyph design' on the back a gimmick, while others found ways to incorporate the way it glows for notifications into their daily lifestyle.

OnePlus is promising to reveal "industry-first technology" at MWC 2023 and in less than a week we will know if it walks the talk.

The fact that we are finally seeing some variation in phone designs is good, but I wish there were more than LED strips on the back.
