Yesterday, we had the opportunity to watch the official premiere of 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 OnePlus 6 on the internet. Today we already know all the information regarding the mentioned smartphone. Let’s start with the specifications of the smartphone:

Build, screen, and components – the most important information

In previous generations, glass was hard to find 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 water 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 an iPhone X-like notch at the top of the screen (with the option to hide it). We also find a system similar to Face ID, allowing us to unlock our device using our face. It’s a pity that the manufacturer did not opt for an even higher resolution.

OnePlus 6 is powered by one of the strongest chipsets on the market – Qualcomm Snapdragon 845. The processor consists of 8 Kryo 385 cores and an Adreno 630 graphics unit. The entire setup is manufactured using a 10nm technology process. Adding to this 6 or 8 GB of RAM makes 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 MP with optical image stabilization should do the trick. Additionally, Sony sensors were implemented here: IMX 519 and IMX 367K. It should be noted that the principle of operation of the lenses known from OnePlus 5T has been retained. Namely, the 20-megapixel unit is responsible for night photos. The process involves gathering light from two adjacent pixels, resulting in better photos in difficult lighting conditions. In the photography options, we 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 photos taken. Additional options related to video recording also matter. Thus, we will be able to use 60-second video materials. All to be able to choose the best moment and create so-called slow-motion. Such materials will be recorded in Full HD resolution at 240 fps or HD at 480 fps. The cherry on top will be the ability to record video 4K at 60 fps.

How much will all this cost us?

The device will be available for purchase in the following configurations:

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

As you can see, these prices are much lower than those of the main competitors, and the device does not fall behind them at all. Pre-order for the device should start on May 22. Someone may have 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 accessory models for OnePlus 6 will be available in our offer!
