OnePlus 5: Autumn is coming, bringing a new color option with it

“Autumn is coming”. No, the Starks have not gone soft, this is a teaser from OnePlus regarding the new color of the OnePlus 5. Originally, it leaked as just Gold, but it could be more nuanced than that - “autumn gold” refers to the many hues that leaves take on as summer ends and autumn comes to town.

There’s a competing theory based on info from TENAA – the Chinese authority mentioned “Mint Gold” on its website. Now, we’re no herbalists by all means, but the leaf in the teaser image does kind of look like Mint.

Still, that’s an odd color, isn’t it? Rose Gold is fairly popular in jewelry but a green/yellow combo is decidedly uncommon. We’re always happy to see phone makers try something new with color schemes, so we can’t wait to taste what OnePlus has in store.
