One of the coolest features on the ever popular feature on the OnePLus One was definitely the option to quickly change covers for completely new materials. OnePLus called these covers “SwapStyle” Covers and they were available in Kevlar, denim and even Bamboo – pretty neat.

If you planned on buying these SwapStyle Covers, or planned to buy the OnePLus One and later the covers we have bad news for you. We just found on the OnePLus Forums that the Swap Style Line will be cancelled because of production issues.

One Plus said also: “could have designed the removal process of the back covers better; it’s tricky and makes frequent switches difficult. The swap can also leave the back cover slightly creaky or loose, and it risks damage to the battery which is exposed for a short time.”

One good news is that OnePlus already produced some of the Bamboo Covers with very limited stock and will sell them soon. The OnePLus One Bamboo Covers will be sold with in detail instructions “on how to replace your cover without damaging the cover, phone or battery.” The Denim and Kevlar Swap Covers might never go in production though. OnePLus is considering though to launch special edition of the OPO using kevlar or denim cases.

OnePlus admitted later that they were quite disappointed about cancelling those Swap Covers. They said that they learned a lot in the process though and are now “much more knowledgeable and know what steps to take to ensure this won’t be a problem for the OnePlus 2, we will make sure the battery is properly protected and the the StyleSwap covers are easy safe to replace.”

How do you feel about the OnePLus One? Many fans seem to be split about OnePLus and the OnePlus One. On the one hand the One is a fantastic Smartphone, on the other hand those Stock issues take a lot of the fun away from what could have been the best FlagShip 2014.
