OnePlus has announced its latest flagship smartphone the OnePlus 6 in London, which is set for release from May 22 and will be available to buy from £469.
The OnePlus 6 comes in mirror black, midnight black and also for a limited time silk white and will operate on OnePlus’ Android operating system, OxygenOS. Available in 64GB, 128GB and 256GB, prices will depend on colour and memory size.
OnePlus founder and CEO Pete Lau said: “With the OnePlus 6, we challenged ourselves to deliver an external design as smooth and elegant as the work we’ve done inside the device.”
“We’re proud of what we’ve accomplished, and we hope our users are too.”
Featuring a 6.28 inch AMOLED 19:9 display, it will be the largest screen a OnePlus smartphone has ever used and the first to utilise an all-glass design both front and back with Corning Gorilla Glass 5.
Powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor, the OnePlus 6 also has 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM. The device also has the ability to switch between multiple apps running at the same time without lag.
The OnePlus 6 is equipped with a dual camera making use of a 16MP main camera and a 20MP secondary camera.
Another key feature of the OnePlus 6 is the fast charge that OnePlus claim can last users an entire day off of just half an hour charge.
