  OnePlus 6 Review – Fast and Smooth. The Speed You Need.
  OnePlus 6. Breeze through apps with little to no load times, or shift quickly between gaming, working and browsing. We didn't design our features to win speed tests. We did it because we want to enable you to do more in less time.

  Primary Camera Dual: 16 MP (f/1.7, 27mm, 1/2.6", 1.22µm, gyro-EIS, OIS) + 20 MP (16 MP effective, f/1.7, 1/2.8", 1.0µm), PDAF, dual-LED flash, check quality
  he OnePlus 6 is a very high-quality smartphone, offering high-end features at a great price-performance ratio. However, its lower price is not a coincidence: OnePlus completely disregards the VR topic, which is reflected in the display technology as well, where the FHD+ resolution has to suffice. Generally, there does not seem to be any advancements in terms of the panel, the notch is purely a matter of taste. We would have wished for something similar to Apple's True-Tone display or a 120 Hz panel. The departure from the aluminum unibody follows a trend as well, but does not grant the OnePlus cell phone wireless charging capabilities. Likewise, instead of a faster transfer standard that could offer more features such as video output or a desktop mode, USB 2.0 is relied upon.
  OnePlus instead relies on the core competencies of a smartphone and equips its latest smartphone with more speed, storage that is both bigger and faster, up-to-date software and a good camera. However, the advancements compared to the predecessor are marginal as well. Battery life is about the same as the predecessor's, which, despite not being a surprise, is still nice since the OnePlus 5T was a real long-runner already. Additionally, it comes with a lightning-fast quick charge technology, which we already know from the OnePlus 5T, but no longer carries the name Dash Charge (name had to be changed due to licensing conflicts).
  Is there a better alternative? An alternative? If you're set on not spending more than $530 and want something comparable, then no. Price is where OnePlus wins. It's almost impossible to find the same level of power, style, and ability for the same amount of money. We're inundated with phones that cost at the minimum $700 ($950-plus isn't uncommon either), yet the OnePlus 6 manages to squeeze in the key features for several hundred dollars less. It's closest competitor remains the Honor View 10.However, if price is no object, and you just want the best phone for you, then the OnePlus 6 faces tremendous competition, because the standard of smartphones released recently is so high. The Galaxy S9 Plus wins points for its design and camera, the Pixel 2XL for its software and camera, the Huawei P20 Profor its best-in-class camera, and the new and relatively reasonably-priced LG G7 ThinQ are all strong alternatives you'll enjoy owning.
  How long will it last? There is an excellent chance of the OnePlus 6 remaining powerful enough to last for considerably more than two years. OnePlus does support its phones with regular software updates too, plus it's one of the phones on Google's Android P beta list, so you can even try out the very latest version of Android when you buy it.Inside the box is a basic case, so you can protect the beautiful finish and keep it safe in the event of a short drop, plus the body has basic splash proofing. It won't survive a bath, but it can be used in the rain and won't wince at the hint of a wet table.Should you buy it? Yes, of course you should buy the OnePlus 6, it's a no-brainer. The price has risen again, but it's still cheaper than any other high-end phone out there. It doesn't sacrifice what matters — speed, build quality, design, and features you want to use. If that's not a reason to hand over your cash, we don't know what is.
  It's easy to dismiss the OnePlus 6 as an insignificant minor upgrade. New chipset – check, notch – check, somewhat improved camera – check. That's about it. The thing is, the OP6 isn't meant to entice those with a 5T in their pockets, or even OP5 owners, much the same way a Galaxy S9 isn't really a compelling upgrade path for Galaxy S8 owners.
  Things change if you're looking to replace an OP3 or 3T, or any year-and-a-half or older phone. With the OnePlus 6 you'd be getting a solid all round camera experience, a display that's better than most, and software that's feature-rich, plain and fast all at the same time. Plus battery life that may not be class leading, but charging tech that is.
  In the process, you'll inevitably forfeit some features that you could find on other models, but are they really absolutely worth the 20-30 percent premium to you? We swear at some point we mentioned unbeatable value.
