OnePlus 6 Review
The OnePlus 6 is a smartphone that can hold its own against the likes of Samsung and Apple. It has an established vibe - a phone you can take seriously and rely on. Basically, there's no messing around with the OnePlus 6.
The OnePlus 6 is by far the company's greatest achievement in the smartphone world. Much like popular phones already leading the way such as the iPhone X and the Samsung Galaxy S9, the OnePlus 6 has an all glass screen. This is combined with a large display for your videos and games as well as the ability to unlock it with a fingerprint or face recognition. You'll get up to 256GB of storage to fill with downloads, photos and apps.
Being an improvement from the previous OnePlus 5T and OnePlus 5, the smartphone is not an innovator but is definitely a good choice if you're looking for something appealing and familiar.
If you're looking for one of these phones, you'll have to wait until the 22nd May where it will be released simultaneously in Europe, North America, and India. For a 64BG OnePlus 6, you're looking at 529 GBP to set you back. For a new smartphone this is relatively cheaper than other makes but still quite a big chunk of cash to hand out.
If you want the 128GB version of the OnePlus 6, you'll have to shell out 519 GBP. If you want to grab the most expensive OnePlus smartphone ever and have the 256GB version you'll be set back 569 pounds.
You'll have to consider switching networks if you grab one of these in the UK, because it's exclusive to O2 on a contract basis. You can grab a sim free one however, but from the OnePlus website itself.
If you do manage to attain a OnePlus 6 you'll be the owner of a phone with a whopping display. The 6.28" screen is the biggest OnePlus have ever used. Not only do you have a large display but also the popular 19:9 aspect ratio. That'll lengthen the display which is great for scrolling through things online.
Despite the huge display, OnePlus may have scrimped on the resolution. Though definitely HD, a lot of phone makers are opting for QHD (quad high definition) which suggests the company left that off their list to achieve other things.
The brightness of the screen looks great, just don't compare it to other more expensive phones or you may be a little disappointed by its brightness and lack of HDR.
As with a lot of phones currently on the market, the OnePlus 6 is host to the controversial notch at the top of the screen. Though nowhere near as big as the intrusive notch on the iPhone X, it takes up space and can be seen as ugly.
OnePlus defended their choice to include the notch, explaining that though screen display is extremely important, it was in the best interest of technology to include the feature. Despite certain feelings about it, the notch hosts the front camera, notification light and light sensor.
One of the possible problems with having a glass phone is that glass is prone to smashing if you drop it (and let's be honest, a lot of us drop our phones). The good thing is that OnePlus includes a silicone cover with your purchase so you can protect your smartphone if you're a little clumsy.
