OnePlus with National Geographic
National Geographic will release the supplement issue “Inspired by Nature” with the July edition of the National Geographic Magazine and it will feature images clicked at various locations in North America. OnePlus says that the images are captured on the OnePlus 7 Pro smartphone. For the partnership, National Geographic roped in three photographers: Andy Bardon, Carlton Ward Jr. and Krystle Wright to document images of deserts, mountain ranges, and underwater life.
“National Geographic has documented the stories of our planet for 130 years, providing audiences around the world with a window into the Earth’s breathtaking beauty. We’re awed by the amazing pictures our photographers captured from their North American expedition with the OnePlus 7 Pro! In collaboration with OnePlus, National Geographic is proud to leverage the power and reach of our global media platforms to inspire everyone to get out, explore, and take their own spectacular photos,” Con Apostolopoulos, Senior Vice President, National Geographic Partners, Asia Pacific & the Middle East, said in a statement.
Pete Lau, Founder and CEO of OnePlus, said, “With this association with National Geographic, we wanted to push the limits of what our camera is capable of and we believe that the professional National Geographic photographers did just that. We are very excited to showcase the results from this partnership and hope that our users will be as excited about the camera on the OnePlus 7 Pro as we are.”

The company also announced a partnership with Netflix’s show, Sacred Games Season 2, to promote the phone’s HDR10+ display and camera. The company says that the display of the OnePlus 7 Pro will give Netflix fans “an immersive viewing experience” on the phone. The content aggregator also released two posters - featuring Sartaj Singh (Saif Ali Khan) and Ganesh Gaitonde (Nawazuddin Siddiqui) - from the series that are claimed to be shot on OnePlus 7 Pro. Netflix also released a behind-the-scenes video that is also said to be shot on the OnePlus 7 Pro.
“Through incredible devices like the OnePlus 7 Pro, consumers increasingly are able to enjoy an amazing viewing experience on Netflix. We are thrilled to celebrate the epic fandom of Sacred Games with posters and a behind-the-scenes video shot on the OnePlus 7 Pro,” Jerome Bigio, Director-Partner Marketing, APAC, Netflix, said.
