OnePlus has launched the Nord 6, which is a great phone in an era where every phone’s price has increased, and OnePlus says that this is here to stay. While there have been some downgrades, it’s probably to keep the prices down.
Design
The OnePlus Nord 6 features a unique camera design, which is an excellent idea since it lets you identify that you have a new phone, and the phone features a triple camera system on the back. The phone features IP68, 69, IP69K, and IP66 for water and dust protection on the phone. The phone comes in fresh mint, pitch black, and quicksilver colours, which look cool, and the device comes in at 8.5 mm thickness and 217 grams of weight, which is great considering it has a massive 9000 mAh battery. It also features 3D audio localisation, the phone is 24% louder in-game footsteps.
Display
The OnePlus Nord 6 features a large 6.78-inch display with a resolution of 1.5K and peak brightness of 3600 nits, with 1800 nits on HBM. It boasts an impressive refresh rate of 165 Hz. Additionally, with Aqua Touch, which is great since we can use the phone while it’s raining without an issue, the phone has 3840 Hz PWM dimming. It also features a 3200 Hz instantaneous touch response rate with a custom touch reflex chip to accelerate touch processing and improve the responsiveness of the display. It also has a crystal guard for display protection, which is on par with Gorilla Glass Victus+ in terms of display protection.
Performance
The Nord 6 features a Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, which is a massive boost, according to OnePlus, getting a massive 114% performance boost based on the AnTuTu scores of the Nord 4. The phone also features a UFS 4.1, which is a 100% boost in read and write speeds, which is excellent, and the phone also has LPDDR5X RAM, which is 33% faster than the LPDDR5 found on the Nord 5. The OnePlus Nord 6 gets 165 fps for an hour straight on BGMI and Call of Duty Mobile, and thanks to the OnePlus G2 custom chip, which gives up to 44% faster Wi-Fi, a floor and room apart from the router, and 1.6x lower latency.
Thanks to the Jio 5G Advanced support from Jio, which features 3 times faster internet speeds on 5G-Advanced and up to 29x faster WhatsApp uploads even in a packed stadium, up to 6x lower ping for BGMI in a 5G congested food court, and up to 44% fewer stutters while watching YouTube live on moving trains.
Camera
The Nord 6 features a 50MP Lytia 600 as its main camera with dual-axis OIS on the phone with 2x in-sensor zoom. It comes with flagship HDR and color algorithms with support for 4K 60fps video capturing on the smartphone and an 8MP ultra-wide camera with a massive 112-degree field of view. It features a 32MP selfie camera with 4K video capture support with a 90-degree wide FOV on the camera, and it comes with AI features: AI eraser, AI perfect shot, AI reframe, and AI detail boost to enhance the photos captured. The camera performance has been downgraded since the LYT 600 has a smaller sensor for cost-cutting.
