OnePlus 6: What's Great, What's Missing

2018-05-17
the one plus six brings a revamped glass design a tall 19 by 9 aspect ratio screen complete with a notch and an improved camera experience so there's a lot of things that the one plus six gets right but we can't help but feel that they could have done more so here are three things that we really like about the one plus six and three things that one plus could have added to take the one plus six to the next level so let's start off with the three things that we liked first one is the price and even though oneplus phones have gone up in price over the years they're still very competitive and affordable when you look at it next to the competition such as Samsung Apple or even Huawei and the base model of the oneplus six starts at five hundred and twenty nine dollars and they completely maxed out one plus six will run you six hundred and twenty nine dollars which may sound like a lot of money but it's still a very competitive price and you're actually getting a lot for that money you're getting eight gigabytes of RAM and 256 gigabytes of internal storage so the bang for the buck is definitely still there with the one plus six number two is the software experience so while the software hasn't really changed all that much from the 5 T that's actually kind of a good thing because it's still very close to stock and oxygen OS offers a lot of great customization options and it's probably the best closest doc experience you can get outside of a pixel and what the oneplus 6 you're also going to have the option of running the Android P beta when the phone launches which is something that you can't say about other flagship Android smartphones number three is some of the refinement features that oneplus has added to make the experience even better on the 1 + 6 so for example the camera now has optical image stabilization it also has bigger pixels so it should be better in low light they've also added 4k recording at 60fps and they've also improved the portrait mode by adding additional bokeh effects and they also plan on bringing portrait mode to the front-facing camera with a software update my favorite enhancement that they've made is Moo the Notification slider to the right side which is much more ergonomic and easier to reach with your thumb instead of using your middle or index finger so I like that change a lot and their focus on refinement is really what makes the experience on the oneplus 6 even better now with that being said here are a few features that oneplus could have added to take the experience to the next level one is wireless charging and while I don't use wireless charging all the time I do find the feature to be useful and it does come in handy when it's there and a lot of flagship phones nowadays do have wireless charging the LG G 7th in cue the Samsung Galaxy S 9 and even the iPhone 10 have wireless charging and what the glass back on the 1 plus 6 it sort of feels like a little bit of an oversight for oneplus 2 not add this feature in number 2 is official certification against water and dust again this is another feature that a lot of flagship smartphones have now Samsung LG Apple you name it they're all IP certified and oneplus says that the oneplus 6 does have some sort of water resistance but it still would be nice to have that peace of mind and know that this phone is IP certified so that if you were to use it in the rain or drop it in a puddle it's going to survive now the thing that's really missing from the 1 plus 6 is a standout feature or an X Factor type feature so the Galaxy S 9 has the mechanical aperture the LG G 7th in queue has the boombox speaker and the quad DAC and all the other audio capabilities and then you have the Huawei P 20 pro with the triple camera setup they all have some sort of feature that really defines them and makes them stand out from the rest of the competition and the 1 plus 6 while it's a really solid smartphone it has a lot of great features it doesn't have anything that really makes it stand out from the crowd so that is really what's missing here I think oneplus could use something like that some sort of x-factor feature that makes people really interested and compelled to buy it and if they can figure out what that is this would be an even better smart phone but that's pretty much gonna do it for this video what do you guys think about the oneplus 6 do you think it's missing any features or do you think it's perfect the way that it is let us know down in the a section below and as always if you enjoyed this video please give it a thumbs up we definitely appreciate it subscribe to the channel which is also down below if you haven't already and of course hit that notification bell so you don't miss out on future videos and check us out on social media instagram twitter snapchat google+ all that good stuff and be linked down below and of course you check the website as well and georgia thorny calm because we are your source for all things Android
