It bears a Full HD+ resolution of 2280 x 1080 pixels which translates to a 402PPI pixel density producing a sharp and crisp display. Design-wise, the OnePlus 6 looks different than all of its previous versions. This is due to the notch located on the top of display. The phone rocks an all glass body. A Corning Gorilla Glass is fitted on the top of the screen as well as the back to ensure protection against accidental damage & scratches. There is a USB Type-C connector for charging and transferring data. The phone retains a 3.5 mm headphone jack for connecting any audio accessories. On the flip side, the dual rear cameras are now vertically aligned along with the fingerprint sensor mounted below. Both are located in the middle.

In the photography department, the OnePlus 6 is not much different than the previous OnePlus 5T. It sports a dual rear camera comprising of a 16MP primary sensor assisted by a 20MP secondary sensor. It has an aperture of f/1.7 and is accompanied by a dual LED flash for better pictures in low light. The primary rear camera now offers Optical Image Stabilisation (OIS) along with Electronic Image Stabilisation (EIS). Upfront, there is a 16MP snapper with f/2.0 aperture for clicking selfies. The rear camera is capable of recording 4k videos.
