According to rumours, the flagship OnePlus 6 will be the company’s most expensive OnePlus smartphone ever.

The movie is set to release on 27 April in India.

As for the features and specifications, top officials of the company have already revealed most of the features of the phone through social media or conferences. The phone is likely to be waterproof according to a teaser tweet. But the waterproofing capabilities are yet to be confirmed.

OnePlus 6 is expected to feature Android 8.1 Oreo as the base operating system, and most probably will give the option to update in future. The phone will be powered by a 3450 mAh battery and dual band Wi-Fi 802.11 ac (which is pretty standard for every phone). The phone will sport the highly controversial 3.5-mm jack. The device will be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 SoC with versions available in three variants – 64GB, 128GB and 256GB. Powered by 8GB RAM, the phone is set to dwarf the mighty Samsung Galaxy S9 with only 4GB RAM. The phone will come with dual cameras and a fingerprint sensor on the back. The recent teaser also shows the Alert slider to move to the right side which helps users in focusing camera on particular objects.
