The OnePlus Nord comes in two color options – the head-turning Blue Marble and the low-profile Gray Onyx. OnePlus has announced that the phone will be getting a special edition on October 14, and the teaser all but confirms the return of a beloved OnePlus design.
The announcement was made on Twitter along with a teaser image. Long term fans of OnePlus will be able to decode the image in a second. However, for those who don’t know, the stones and sand hint at a Sandstone finish for the special edition OnePlus Nord.

Back in 2014, when the OnePlus One was announced, it was available in two colorways – Silk White and Sandstone Black. The latter was a fan favorite, thanks to its (fine)sand-like texture that also provided a firm grip. The OnePlus 2 was also available in Sandstone Black while other models including the OnePlus 8 series have Sandstone cases that users can purchase.
If the special edition OnePlus Nord does have a Sandstone finish, it means it will drop the Gorilla Glass 5 back panel in favor of the new material.
The special edition phone will be announced alongside the OnePlus 8T series on October 14.
