Why OnePlus 6 shouldn’t be your next purchase

After months of building hype in various forms, OnePlus has finally launched its new smartphone flagship in the market that is OnePlus 6 on Thursday in India, after launched in London. The OnePlus 6 ticks many boxes in terms of specifications that you will usually find in a flagship smartphone, which is why the company has been banking upon the tagline of ‘Never Settle’ to tout some of the top-of-the-line features at a price point lower than what other flagship smartphones cost in the market. This time, OnePlus joined the ranks of the other Android phones that aped the iPhone X notch without the hesitation even after an upheaval in the behavior of the customers that clearly showed disinterest.

The starting price of OnePlus 6 in India is Rs 34,999 for the base variant which has 6GB of RAM and 64GB of inbuilt storage. The speculations that the OnePlus 6 will be the costliest OnePlus smartphone so far came true when the company enthralled the audience sitting in The Dome at NSIC in Mumbai by introducing the Marvel Avengers Limited Edition model at a price of Rs 44,999.

If you look at the history of OnePlus phones, not a long ago, the company always has a strategy of launching two devices in a year, and not more than that because it wants to stay updated with the latest trend in the phone industry to quench its loyal users with everything that makes them ‘never settle’.

OnePlus 6, has a display that measures 6.28-inch in size at a full-HD+ resolution. The OnePlus 6 is powered and supported by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor, which is the most powerful Snapdragon SoC to date. It has two cameras on the rear part that is 20-megapixel and 16-megapixel on and also sports a 16-megapixel front camera for taking selfies and video calling.

The OnePlus 6T will perhaps be the first OnePlus smartphone that supports with the wireless charging. In addition, the OnePlus 6T could also feature the under-display fingerprint sensor, which has been long-coming on more than one Android smartphones, other than the new smart of Vivo X21 UD.

Samsung is said to be working on the same fingerprint sensing technology for its latest new upcoming smartphone, but it’s not clear if it’d be the Galaxy Note 9 or the Galaxy S10. however, the recent reports have said the Galaxy S10 is more likely to have the technology

The idea is that spending Rs 44,999 for the OnePlus 6, even if that’s for the Marvel Avengers Limited Edition, is not actually worth when the OnePlus 6T will perhaps be unveiled for the buyers just later this year. Anyway, OnePlus 6 looks so promising even at a higher price point than other smartphones. It comes with top specifications that are usually found on higher priced flagship phones.
