The New Thunder Purple OnePlus 60: A Review
Hey guys, I'm Thanh, the tech chap, and welcome back to my channel! Today, I'm excited to show you one of my favorite phones right now - the new Thunder purple OnePlus 6. The 6 is already a standout device in its lineup, but what makes this particular model even more special? Let's dive in!
The Midnight Black Color Scheme
I have to say that I was thoroughly impressed with the midnight black color scheme that came with my review unit. The gradient that fades from black at the top to purple at the bottom is subtle yet eye-catching. In a world of black rectangular phones, it's refreshing to see a splash of color. And when the back of a phone hits the light just right, you can actually make out a slight "S" pattern - it's genuinely a beautiful phone! Of course, this isn't a boxing video, so let's take a quick look in the box to see what else we get.
Inside the Box
As you'd expect from any OnePlus 6, there's a power plug, USB-C, and a USB-A port. But one thing I always appreciate is that Oneplus includes a case in the box, which is clear so we can still see all that purple goodness. It looks like any other 60 case at first glance, but of course, it's actually the gorgeous Thunder Purple model! Let's pull it to one side for a moment and take a closer look.
Headline Features - In-Display Fingerprint Reader
One of the standout features of the OnePlus 6 is its in-screen fingerprint reader. I'm happy to report that it works well, but there's a slight catch. The ambient display isn't always on, so you'll need to tap the screen or even just shake it a bit to wake up before you can use the fingerprint reader. It might seem like a minor issue, but it's definitely worth mentioning.
Which Phone Looks Best?
Now that we've seen what makes this Thunder Purple OnePlus 6 so special, I want to hear from you! Which of these phones do you think looks best - the OnePlus 6, the Huawei Mate XX Pro, or the Xiaomi Mi 8 Pro? Cast your vote in the poll at the top right, and who knows, maybe the winner will even receive a prize (although, let's be real, it's probably just bragging rights!).
Only One SKU Available
The Thunder Purple OnePlus 6 is available in only one SKUs - with eight gigs of RAM and 128 gigs of storage. It's not the most extensive options list, but honestly, I'm okay with that. The device feels solid and well-rounded, even without all the bells and whistles.
My Personal Experience
As someone who's been using the OnePlus 6 for a while now, I have to say that I've grown quite fond of it. There's something about the software that feels a lot closer to stock Android than some of its competitors. No bloatware, no long animations - just a clean, intuitive experience that makes me want to use my phone all day long. And let's not forget the gesture support on this device - it's one of the best I've seen so far.
Pros and Cons
Now that we've talked about what makes the Thunder Purple OnePlus 6 so special, I'm left wondering whether I should switch from my current phone to this new model. While the 6 has its pros (like the in-screen fingerprint reader and gesture support), it also has some cons - like the limited storage options.
Do you think I should stick with my current phone or take a chance on the OnePlus 6? Let me know in the comments below, and don't forget to vote in the poll! If you're interested in learning more about the 6, be sure to check out my full review by clicking the link at the top right.
