Camera
On the camera front, there is still some similarity with the OnePlus 5T. OnePlus 6 has a dual-camera setup. It sports a 16-megapixel Sony IMX519 sensor with a 1.22-micron pixel size, f/1.7 aperture, OIS, and EIS primary camera on the rear. The secondary is a 20-megapixel Sony IM376K sensor with a 1-micron pixel size and an f/1.7 aperture. These cameras come with a dual-LED flash module.
The front camera is powered by a 16-megapixel Sony IMX371 sensor, 1-micron pixels, f/2.0 aperture, and EIS. This camera offers Portrait Mode, giving a depth-of-field effect using a new AI algorithm. It also has a Face Unlock feature which is said to be capable of unlocking the phone in 0.4 seconds.
OnePlus also included a Slow Motion video recording option which can capture 480 frames per second, while adding a new in-device video editor.
Connectivity
Connectivity is also an important factor to consider when getting a phone. OnePlus 6 supports 4G VoLTE as well as Wi-Fi 802.11ac (dual-band, 2.4GHz and 5GHz) with 2×2 MIMO. It comes with Bluetooth v5.0 with support for aptX and aptX HD. NFC, GPS/A-GPS and USB Type-C (v2.0) are some of the other connectivity options supported by OnePlus 6.

Battery
Running on a 3300mAh battery, and enjoying the company’s Dash Charge (5V, 4A) fast charging technology, OnePlus 6 is said to deliver a “day’s power in half an hour”.
Water Resistance
OnePlus claims that the OnePlus 6 offers ‘daily water resistance’, and that it is safe from regular splashes. However, this does not seem to be certified as there is no detailed IP rating.
