The company tells us that the "community has been asking" for a completely black OnePlus phone for a while. As proof, it pointed us to a Twitter poll it ran where 92 percent of respondents agreed that OnePlus should "matte black all the things." That's not exactly a scientific survey, but there's no denying that there's at least some interest in a darker shade. We can't knock OnePlus too hard, then, but this still serves as a lesson in resisting the urge to snap up an exclusive device color as soon as it's available.

Update 3/28: You can now buy the Midnight Black edition. It's only available in a 128GB capacity, so you'll need to spend $479 for the extra cachet.
