Description

As all of the company's previous high-end smartphones, the OnePlus 6 offers great specs at a great price. A tall, 6.3-inch AMOLED display is at its centerpiece, a dual-camera setup enables bokeh effects and high-framerate video, and a Snapdragon 845 provides plenty of processing power. The lightweight user interface has a stock feel, but also brings useful extras like Face Unlock and optional navigation gestures to replace on-screen buttons. The phone is made of glass and metal and is resistant to rain and splashes.

OnePlus 6: A Durable and Capable Flagship
I had the pleasure of using the OnePlus 6 for over five years, making it a reliable companion throughout my daily routine. Initially, the battery life was commendable, lasting comfortably through extended usage periods. However, as expected with any device over time, the battery performance began to deteriorate, necessitating a replacement after the third year.
For the majority of its lifespan, the OnePlus 6 consistently delivered impressive speed and responsiveness. Its snappy performance made multitasking and demanding tasks a breeze. Unfortunately, in the final year, the device began to exhibit signs of aging, with noticeable slowdown and occasional software glitches.
Overall, the OnePlus 6 proved to be a durable and capable flagship device. Its longevity and strong performance during its prime years make it a worthwhile investment. While the battery replacement was necessary, it's a common occurrence with older devices. The occasional performance issues in its later years are also expected, considering the advancements in technology during that time.

Big and strong :-)
Phone owned for less than a month

Great benchmarks, battery for all day long whatever you do, great camera. Too bad that there's no sd card and speaker is low in volume. Very fast reactions for everyday usage, hope it will get update to android pie soon

I can almost forgive the notch. Almost.
Phone owned for less than a month

As a big fan of the OnePlus series, I decided to give the OnePlus 6 a try, despite my not so good feelings about phones with notches. (I use an iPhone X for work.) However, this notch is much less obtrusive and most of the time I forget it's even there.

I would HIGHLY recommend this phone to anyone.
