OnePlus 6 finally unveiled. Specifications, price, and variants!

Yesterday, we had the opportunity to watch the official launch of the OnePlus 6. A device that will be quite a competition for more “prestigious” brands, such as Samsung, Huawei, or Apple. Below you will find the most important information related to the mentioned device.

For a long time, we could find at least a dozen rumors and leaks about the OnePlus 6 on the internet. Today, we already know all the information regarding the mentioned handset. Let’s start with the smartphone’s specifications:

Build, screen, and components – key information

In previous generations, it was futile to look for glass in the finish of OnePlus smartphones. This time, the manufacturer decided to change its approach, resulting in a solid combination of a glass body, metal frame, and a good front display. The head of the mentioned company emphasizes that the device can boast splash resistance (although it officially does not meet the iPXX standard).

The smartphone features a 6.28-inch Optic AMOLED display. It offers a 19:9 aspect ratio (thanks to its resolution) and the iPhone X’s recognizable element – a notch at the top of the screen (with the option to hide it). We also find a system similar to Face ID here, allowing us to unlock our device using our face. It’s a pity the manufacturer didn’t opt for an even higher resolution.

The OnePlus 6 is powered by one of the strongest chipsets on the market – the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845. The processor consists of 8 Kryo 385 cores and an Adreno 630 graphics unit. The whole is made in a 10nm technological process. Adding 6 or 8 GB of RAM to this will make it a true command center at our fingertips.

Camera as a strong point

The manufacturer decided to install a dual camera on the back of the device. 16 and 20 Mpx with optical image stabilization should do the trick. Additionally, Sony sensors were implemented here: IMX 519 and IMX 367K. It should be remembered that the principle of operation of the lenses known from the OnePlus 5T was maintained here. Namely, the 20-megapixel unit is responsible for night photos. The process is characterized by collecting light from two adjacent pixels, which translates into better photos in difficult lighting conditions. In the photographic options, we will also find a portrait mode, which gained popularity thanks to Apple products.

The new smartphone is not just about the camera and the quality of the photos taken. Additional options related to video recording also matter. Thus, we will be able to use 60-second video materials. All this to be able to choose the best moment and make the so-called slow-motion. Such materials will be recorded in Full HD resolution at 240 fps or HD at 480 fps. The icing on the cake will be the ability to record video in 4K at 60 fps.

How much will all this cost us?

We will be able to purchase the device in the following configurations:

1. 6 GB RAM, 64 GB internal memory, color: Mirror Black – 519 euros (approximately 2200-2300 PLN);
2. 8 GB RAM, 128 GB internal memory, color: Mirror Black, Midnight Black – 569 euros (approximately 2450-2600 PLN);
3. 8 GB RAM, 256 GB internal memory, color: Midnight Black – 619 euros (approximately 2650-2800 PLN)

As you can see, these prices are much lower than those of the main rivals, and the device does not lag behind them at all. Pre-sale of the device should start on May 22. Someone has probably already noticed that the entire lineup lacks a white color version. Unfortunately, purchasing the OnePlus 6 in this color will only be possible from June 5.

Soon, many models of accessories for OnePlus 6 in our offer!
