OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren review: The orange-stitched McLaren Edition — peak OnePlus collectible.
The McLaren the OnePlus faithful still talk about.
7T Pro McLaren Edition was the partnership at its peak — QHD+ 90 Hz, pop-up selfie, 12 GB RAM, an Alcantara-style papaya back. The pop-up's aging mechanism is the modern caveat; for collectors of the pre-merger OxygenOS era, no OnePlus is more sought-after.
