The series of changes does not end here, glass has been given in the rear of OnePlus 6. OnePlus supports wireless charging. Also, the user gets the option to choose from 3 different types of glass. The company hopes that the Midnight Black option will be very popular. It has a matte texture coating feel. Everyone will definitely want to touch it as soon as they see it. As soon as external light falls on it, the user starts seeing different patterns of the glass.
The second option is also black, which is named Mirror Black. Its polished view will definitely attract the eyes. (If you decide to use the phone without a cover) It will remind you a lot of Apple’s iPhone 7 with black and jet options. The third option is Silk White. It has a rose gold frame, which is different. The rear panel has a unique texture, which is as soft as the touch.
OnePlus has so far given more importance to online sales. But we would suggest that you visit an offline store once before buying. Both the black options will come to India with either 64 GB storage variant or 128 GB storage. The Silk White option will arrive later. All three have Corning Gorilla Glass 5 on the front and back.
There is a notch on the front. According to the teaser, the front of the phone is not very different at all. It is no surprise that aspects like the notch are of concern to everyone. The positive thing is that the screen is big and the borders are thin. The notch has a multi-color status LED.
The AMOLED screen is bright and punchy. Initial impressions show that apps and wallpapers look great but you’ll have to wait for our detailed review to know how good everything is. The OnePlus 6 is slim and easy to hold. However, it is difficult to reach all the edges of the phone with just your thumb.
One piece of information might bother long-time OnePlus users. The company has moved the alert slider from left to right. Thankfully, the OnePlus 6 has a 3.5mm audio socket, which is placed right next to the USB-Type C port. The mono speaker button is also present here. The dual nano SIM tray indicates that the phone does not include an option to expand storage.
The fingerprint sensor is not round, it is placed below the camera module. The rim given in the module is not strong in terms of protection. We also faced this problem in OnePlus 5, which the company also rectified in OnePlus 5T. Then I don’t know why, the company continued it in OnePlus 6.
This is the first Made in India phone that comes with Qualcomm’s top Snapdragon 845 processor. The price of the phone with this processor is still much lower than the flagships of Samsung, Huawei and Apple. The phone has a 3300 mAh battery, which comes with Dash Charge.
There is 4K support for the front camera and a slow-motion mode of 720px 480fps. We will definitely test the OnePlus 6 cameras for stills and videos. We are eager to know the limits of the Snapdragon 845. It is too early to say anything about the phone’s battery right now. Wait for our detailed review to know ‘everything’ about the OnePlus 6 in detail.
