Unlock the Speed with the OnePlus 6T

New York – October 29, 2018 – OnePlus has announced its latest premium flagship device, the OnePlus 6T.

Featuring Screen Unlock, the industry’s fastest in-display fingerprint technology, the OnePlus 6T provides users with a fast, natural and intuitive way to unlock your device, while benefiting from a large display with minimal bezels. Taking just .34 seconds to unlock and supported by sophisticated self-learning algorithms, Screen Unlock sets a new standard for smartphones.

“We constantly challenge ourselves to give people the best experience possible, to do what’s right, no matter what,” said Pete Lau, founder and CEO. “A great user experience means your phone needs to get out of the way and make you feel free - it has to enhance your life instead of distracting you from it. I’m so proud of what we’ve built with the OnePlus 6T, and can’t wait to see what people think when they use it.”


Immersive Display, Meticulous Design

The OnePlus 6T has a rich and immersive display, with a 6.41-inch Optic AMOLED display at a 19.5:9 aspect ratio for great viewing angles whether you’re playing Fortnite or watching Netflix. As durable as it is beautiful, the front of the OnePlus 6T is protected by the latest Corning Gorilla Glass 6, seamlessly flowing into the glass design.

Over 40 different manufacturing steps go into crafting the 3D glass back of the OnePlus 6T, which is made from multiple layers of glass, it includes anti-glare coating and a texturized multilayer film.


Fast and Smooth

Fast and Smooth is not just about raw processing power, but about the optimization of hardware and software.

The powerful Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 845 Mobile Platform brings the speed, performance and battery life that creates amazing user experiences and sets the standards for performance.

Smart Boost, a new feature in the OnePlus 6T, improves app cold start speed by up to 20% by storing data from frequently used apps in the phones RAM.

And when you need more power, OnePlus Fast Charge can quickly charge the OnePlus 6T’s 3700mAh battery, which provides a 20% increase in battery life compared to OnePlus 6, for a full day of power in half an hour.


Introducing Nightscape mode

Industry-leading HDR and portrait mode images are also improved, thanks to the clarity, dynamic range, and edge detection provided by OxygenOS. The OnePlus 6T rear cameras can capture 4K video footage at 60 frames per second, and Super Slow Motion at 1080p and 240fps / 720p and 480fps.
