The new smartphone from OnePlus has officially made a wave of buzz on the internet and it is coming to India on December 15. We are talking about OnePlus 6T McLaren Edition that was recently unveiled with a plethora of visual changes and a subtle change at its specs sheet that you’d love. The phone comes at a whopping price tag of Rs 50,999/- for its standard 10GB/256GB model.
Starting with its design, OnePlus has made a quite radical change in terms of design which is by far the most enticing feature. You’ll see the special edition OnePlus 6T built with AA-grade of carbon fiber along with carbon fiber frosted rear glass and a tinge of orange-colored brush at the rear bottom glass making it strikingly different from other devices that have earlier established partnerships with luxury car makers such as Oppo and Lamborghini, Huawei and Porsche, etc. The phone looks stunning with its carbon fiber-styled rear frosted glass with the bottom edge as earlier mentioned is clad with papaya orange braiding which has followed its way through the new Warp Charger as well. Finally, we have a McLaren logo at the back which is what makes the phone looks super cool after all you are paying around 5 grand more than a top variant.
After collaborating with McLaren, a British racing team, OnePlus 6T has intercepted a number of new features such as the upgraded 10GB RAM variant with a built-in storage of 256GB which is the highest among OnePlus devices. OnePlus has upgraded the special edition OnePlus 6T with a 30W fast charger called ‘Warp Charge’ which is known to charge the phone to its maximum capacity in just 20 minutes while the standard OnePlus 6T device would take around an hour to rack up the battery capacity to optimum.
Speaking about the specs, OnePlus 6T McLaren Edition offers the same 6.41-inch FHD+ 1080×2340 pixels AMOLED display with sRGB support and a tall 19.5:9 aspect ratio. The phone is powered by the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 octa-core processor with a max 256GB ROM without any expandability option. The optics remain the same which isn’t baffling if you are a keen OnePlus follower. The phone offers a 16MP selfie camera with EIS, f/2.0 aperture and 1-micrometer pixel size while the rear assembly offers a dual 16MP Sony IMX519 and 20MP IMX376K sensor capable of shooting super slow motion video, 4K@60fps and more. There are no changes to the various sensors and the battery capacity of 3,700 mAh.
All and all, the Chinese OEM is celebrating the 5th anniversary and perhaps, there is more joy to enjoy with every purchase during the offer period. the device will be available in India as Amazon Exclusive, OnePlus Experience Stores and various offline stores from December 15 to December 24 coupled with a number of offers including a 2,000/- additional exchange bonus, no-cost EMI on various credit cards and also a 1,500/- and 2,000/- cashback on buying the phone using EMI option and full retail purchase using Axis Bank credit and debit cards.
