Unveiling the Crimson Shadow: Design Elevated

The Open Apex Edition boasts a captivating design that pays homage to the iconic Hasselblad 503CW 60 Years Victor Red Edition camera. The striking element is the vegan leather back cover, boasting a diamond-like pattern in a deep red hue dubbed “Crimson Shadow.” This luxurious material exudes elegance and durability.

For a touch of vibrancy, the Alert Slider features an orange accent, while the camera dial takes center stage with a light-reflective CD pattern encased within a glass dome. This meticulous attention to detail elevates the Open Apex Edition beyond a mere phone; it’s a statement piece for the discerning user.

Security Redefined: Industry-First Features and Advanced Protection

Security is paramount in today’s digital world, and the Open Apex Edition pushes boundaries in this regard. It comes equipped with an independent security chip certified for CC EAL5+, ensuring enhanced protection for your data. Additionally, the NFC security chipset boasts CC EAL6+ and EMVCo certifications, guaranteeing exceptional transaction security.

But the real innovation lies in the industry-first VIP mode. Activated through the signature OnePlus Alert Slider, this mode disables all microphones and cameras, simultaneously locking the security chip. This creates a highly secure and private environment for users who demand absolute discretion.
