A few days ago, OnePlus teased that a welcome bit of luxury was coming the way of the OnePlus 2, and many wondered what it could be. Could it be the unveiling of a new super-duper 2018 flagship killer? You can quit your pondering right now because it seems that the ‘bit of luxury‘ is instead a leather case for the OnePlus 2 that comes with a hefty price tag of $100.
You read that correctly. $100. OnePlus partnered up with Hard Graft to offer the Wild Phone Case for the OnePlus 2. The Wild Phone Case is made out of authentic grey washed and traditionally tanned Tuscan leather that is said to become more supple as time goes by. The case has also been lined with fine wool felt to ‘keep the display beautiful and fingerprint-free'.
Besides keeping the OnePlus 2 clean and safe, the Wild Phone Case has two inside pockets that can hold up to 4 cards, which is handy if you don't want to carry your wallet around.
And now we get back to that price. One hundred dollars. That's a nice chunk of change to protect your OnePlus 2 smartphone. It could be construed as slightly ironic that the case is currently out of stock given that OnePlus struggles to get its devices into the hands of consumers. If you own a OnePlus 2, would you spend that for a case? In fact, if you own any smartphone, would you spend that sort of money on a case? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

They may sell a few to their true fan boys, but most of them don’t have an extra $100 plus shipping to spare. OP is pretty smart bringing this case out right now as they are not shipping enough phones to have much demand for a case that is 3-5 times more expensive than similar one’s already on the market.
