On the back, the phone gets a dual-camera setup led by a 50MP primary sensor. OnePlus has not shared details about the secondary camera yet. The phone will also support video recording at up to 60fps and include Dual-View Video mode, which lets users record using the front and rear cameras at the same time. 

For selfies and video calls, the OnePlus N6 comes with an 8MP front camera. 

OnePlus is also bringing a vapour chamber cooling system with a 5,300 sq mm heat dissipation area. According to the company, this is the largest cooling system in its segment and is designed to keep temperatures under control during gaming and other demanding tasks. 

Battery and charging speeds 

The smartphone packs an 8,000mAh battery, matching the capacity found on the higher-end OnePlus Nord CE 6. 

OnePlus claims the battery can last for up to three days on a single charge under typical usage. The company also says it is designed to maintain its health for up to seven years. 

Charging is handled by 45W wired fast charging. OnePlus claims that just five minutes of charging can provide up to 1.7 hours of YouTube playback. 

Processor, software and colours 

While OnePlus has not officially confirmed the processor, a recent Geekbench listing suggests the N6 could be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 chipset. The listing also showed 6GB of RAM, an ARM Mali-G57 MC2 GPU, and Android 16. 

On Geekbench, the phone scored 788 points in the single-core test and 1,993 points in the multi-core benchmark. It also recorded AI benchmark scores of 532 for single precision, 945 for half precision and 1,072 for quantized performance. 

The OnePlus N6 will ship with Android 16-based OxygenOS 16 out of the box. The smartphone will be available in two colour options — Fresh Mint and Midnight Green. 

Expected price and availability 

OnePlus has confirmed that the N6 will launch in India on June 30 at 12 PM IST. The phone will be sold through Amazon and other authorised retail channels.
