OnePlus had launch its flagship OnePlus 6 and OnePlus 6 Marvel Avengers Limited Edition smartphone. Now, today they have introduced the OnePlus 6 Amber Red Edition version of its flagship OnePlus 6 smartphone. Other than the color, this smartphone sports same specifications as OnePlus 6. Like, It sports a 6.28-inch Optic AMOLED display with a notch, 84% screen-to-body ratio and is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 5. It is powered by Snapdragon 845 Mobile Platform with up to 8GB of RAM and runs on Android 8.1 (Oreo) with OxygenOS 5.1.

It has a fingerprint sensor on the back of phone which is in stylish oval shape. It also comes with face unlock feature that can unlock the phone in 0.4 seconds. OnePlus has confirmed that it has daily water resistance, by using a special type of foam layered on the gap between the screen and the battery cover that prevents water from seeping into the wiring. Along with that the waterproof materials in the headphone jack and fingerprint scanner, and silicone loops in gaps around the buttons of the device also makes it daily water resistance device. Although it can survive a drop in the water, rain or spilled water sink, rain or a spilled glass of water, but do not go for swimming with it.

It has dual rear camera the primary is a 16 MP with Sony IMX519 sensor, f/1.7 aperture, OIS as well as EIS, the secondary is 20 MP with Sony IMX376K sensor and f/1.7 aperture, for portrait shots and 2x zoom. On the front side it has 16 MP camera with Sony IMX 371 sensor. While the company has promised that user will be able to take portrait mode using the front camera through software update.

OnePlus utilized a never-done-before technique utilizing optical coating, evaporative film, and six panels of glass to capture the perfect red. To allow more light to reach the bottom layers of glass before being reflected off the device an added anti-reflective layer was used, that creates a sense of depth. The OnePlus 6 Amber Red smartphone has a radiant glossy red which appears because of translucent orange layer intermixing with the red base layer.

OnePlus CEO, Pete Lau, commented on the launch:

We believe power and attitude can be both elegant and humble, and we have strived to achieve this with the OnePlus 6 Red Edition. We worked to avoid an overly bright red color while still capturing a sense of self-confidence and positivity. Achieving the amber-like effect took several months to refine and perfect.
