The OnePlus 6T is an Android-based smartphone from OnePlus. It was announced on October 29, 2018, before being released on November 6. The launch was originally scheduled for October 30, but was rescheduled to avoid coinciding with Apple Inc.'s on October 30.[1][2][3]

The OnePlus 6T is an incremental hardware update to the OnePlus 6; increasing the size of the display to 6.41" along with the screen-to-body ratio by shrinking the notch into a smaller "teardrop" shape and slightly shrinking the bottom "chin" bezel, increasing the size of the battery, removing the 3.5 mm audio jack, and providing an in-display fingerprint sensor.[4][5][6]

OnePlus also announced a McLaren edition of the phone similar to the Oppo Find X's Lamborghini edition and the Huawei Mate 20 Pro's Porsche Design model. The device features 10 GB of RAM and a unique color scheme OnePlus calls Speed Orange.[7] Due to the extra RAM, the device is more expensive than the regular 6T; it is priced at $699 in the United States.[8] This phone also debuted with a new 30W Warp Charge 30 unit that is significantly faster than the regular 20 W unit.

Specifications

As far as the 6T's physical construction goes, it has Gorilla Glass 6 on the front (new for the 6T), an aluminum mid-frame, and Gorilla Glass 5 on the rear.[9]

Hardware

The OnePlus 6T comes with a new 6.41-inch AMOLED FHD+ display & taller 19.5:9 aspect ratio (compared to the 6's shorter 6.28-inch, 19:9 panel), a significantly smaller "teardrop" notch for housing the front facing RGB camera & sensors, the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor, and a larger 3700 mAh battery (increased by 400 mAh). Though like the model it replaced, it maintains the same 16-megapixel and 20-megapixel cameras on the back, with another 16-megapixel sensor on the front. Depending on the specific model in question, the 6T comes with different variations of storage (128GB, 256GB) and RAM (6GB, 8GB, 10GB); with the new base model now shipping with twice the storage capacity as previously (128GB vs 64GB).[10]

For biometrics, the OnePlus 6T has a new in-display optical fingerprint sensor (replacing the rear mounted capacitive sensor found on its predecessors), in addition to Face Unlock.[10]

Software

It ships with OnePlus's customized version of Android, OxygenOS, which is based on Android Pie, and has since been updated to Android 10.[10]

Network compatibility

The OnePlus 6T supports 4G, LTE, Dual VoLTE, 3G, 2G and CDMA.

Guinness record

OnePlus set a Guinness World Record title of "the most people unboxing a phone simultaneously" on the launch of OnePlus 6T.[11]

Reception

Like its predecessors, the OnePlus 6T was praised for its long battery life and performance from an efficient Android build, all while still remaining relatively affordable for a flagship device. Besides value, the 6T also offered new innovations that distinguished it from other phones; the in-display fingerprint scanner was generally praised as working well for a first-time implementation albeit with an inconsistent unlock speed, while "teardrop" accommodation for the front selfie camera at the top of the display was considered more aesthetic than the notch of other phones. Adding T-Mobile USA as a carrier and distribution partner in the United States would also improve sales and support compared to OnePlus's previous online-only sales model. American technology reviewer Marques Brownlee said in his Smartphone Awards video on December 18 that the OnePlus 6T is the best phone of 2018 for its affordable price and great features that are on expensive phones.[12][13] The lack of a headphone jack was criticized, as well as the removal of the notification LED, while some reviewers also noted that there is still no IP67 or IP68 protection from water and dust.[14][15]
