Design, screen and components - highlights

In previous generations it was in vain to look for glass in the finish of OnePlus smartphones. This time the manufacturer decided to change its approach, so we got a solid combination of a glass body, metal frame and a good front display. The head of the aforementioned company stresses that the device boasts splash resistance (even though it doesn't officially 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 signature element - a notch at the top of the screen (with the option to hide it). We'll also find a system along the lines of Face ID here, so we'll be able to unlock our device using our face. It's a pity that the manufacturer wasn't tempted to use an even higher resolution.

OnePlus 6 is powered by one of the more powerful chips on the market - Qualcomm Snapdragon 845. The processor consists of 8 Kryo 385 cores and Adreno 630 graphics chip, all made using a 10nm technology process. Adding to this 6 or 8 GB of RAM, it will be a veritable command center at our fingertips.

Camera a strong point

The manufacturer has decided to mount a dual camera on the back of the device. 16 and 20 Mpx with optical image stabilization should do the job. In addition, Sony sensors have been implemented here: IMX 519 and IMX 367K. Note that the lens principle known from the OnePlus 5T has been retained here. Namely, it is the 20-megapixel unit that is responsible for night shots. The process is characterized by collecting light from two adjacent pixels, which translates into better photos in difficult lighting conditions. The photo options also include a portrait mode, which has gained popularity with Apple products.

A new smartphone is not just about the camera and the quality of the photos it takes. Additional options related to video shooting also count. Thus, we will be able to use 60-second videos. All this to be able to choose the best moment and make the so-called slow-motion. Such footage will be recorded in Full HD at 240 fps or HD at 480 fps. The icing on the cake will be the ability to record 4K video 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 storage, color: Mirror Black - 519 euros (about 2200-2300 PLN);

1. GB RAM, 128 GB internal storage, color: Mirror Black, Midnight Black - 569 euros (about 2450-2600 PLN
