A few hours after it held the global launch event in London, OnePlus has now announced the arrival of its most recent flagship device – the OnePlus 6 in its homeland, China. Alongside the regular OnePlus 6, the company also announced the OnePlus 6 Avengers: Infinity War Limited Edition in the country.
Price in China
OnePlus 6 fans in China are in luck, as all the OnePlus 6 variants in that country cost less than what was announced yesterday for other countries. The 6GB RAM + 64 GB storage variant will sell for 3,199 Yuan (~$503), the 6GB RAM + 128 GB storage model for 3,599 Yuan (~$566), the 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage model for 3,599 Yuan (~$566), the 8 GB RAM + 256 GB storage for 3,999 Yuan (~$628), while the 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage model in silk white will go for 3,599 Yuan (~$566).
The OnePlus 6 Avengers: Infinity War Limited Edition with 8 GB RAM and 256 GB carries the heftiest price tag, retailing at 4,199 Yuan which translates to about $660.
In China, you will be able to get the OnePlus 6 with 6 GB + 64 GB in Mirror Black, 8 GB + 256 GB in Midnight Black and 8 GB + 128 GB in Mirror Black and Midnight Black colors from the OnePlus official online store and Jingdong Mall starting from May 22, while the Avengers Limited Edition OnePlus 6 and Silk White 8 GB + 128 GB will both go on sale from June 5 via same channels.
We have already detailed the specs and features of the flagship OnePlus 6 here, but here is a quick run through them once again.
With the headphone jack intact, the OnePlus 6, unlike previous models, is now more water resistant. The OnePlus 6 flaunts the biggest screen ever found on any OnePlus device, featuring a notched 6.28 inches display protected with Corning Gorilla Glass 5 with the trendy 19:9 aspect ratio. The device is powered by the same chipset found in most other flagships so far released in 2018 including the Galaxy S9 duo and the LG G7 ThinQ – the Snapdragon 845 chipset with up to 8GB of RAM and as much as 256GB of storage, but still lacks the microSD card slot for memory expansion.
Gizchina News of the week
Powered by a 3,300mAh with dash charge, the Oneplus 6 boots Android 8 Oreo (with Oxygen OS 5.1 on top) out of the box, but interestingly, OnepLus beforehand has announced the device will support the new Android P Beta from Google, giving you a sneak peek at some of the new features of the next Android OS.
Packed in a box styled like Iron, the OnePlus 6 Avengers: Infinity War Edition is the same as the regular OnePlus 6, albeit its Carbon-textured back with a gold Avengers logo near the bottom, as well as a Gold plated alert slider.
