- nDF
500$ V30
- 2k Oled Screen
- IP68
- wireless charging
- way better camera : photo&video
- better battery life ( 93h vs 90h gsmarena )
- Quad DAC
- HDR10 compliant
- Always-on display
- microSD card Slot
- Headphone JACK
- Ultrawide camera - extremely usefull
- Stereo FM radio with RDS
And that is 2017 Flagship
If we compare it to 2018 flagships : Mate 20 Pro, Note 9, Lg V40, Iphone Xs etc etc IT KINDA LOOKS LIKE MIDRANGER
WHY THEY KEEP CALLING IT FLAGSHIP KILLER ?
- No STEREO SPEAKERS
- NO IR BLASTER
- NO ULTRA FAST CHARGING
- NO S PEN
- NO NOTHING SPECIAL ....
I mean, it's a good phone for the price. But NO flagship killer here...

What a nice way of saying that Android is crap - only ONE phone is able to work as it should over time. 2018 and Android still lags and stutters with 4+Gb RAM - WOW!
"A big part of what stands out in a Pixel is how smooth it feels in operation, how lag and stutters are nonexistent in day-to-day use, and how it seems to not slow down with time. Well, the OnePlus 6 is incredibly close to that level of smoothness. In fact, it's the closest of any device that's ever been put through the long-term review process."

Jeroen, 22 Sep 2018You only tell the benefits of the S9 and then state the S9 is better.
What I dislike the most... moreI'm not a Samsung fan, in fact i never bought one Samsung device, i work with them (i make apps for a living) and my girlfriend have 1. I have Htc u11 and she now have my Htc 10. she never used anymore her Samsung A5 after i gave mine Htc 10.
I hate curved screen from Samsung flagship devices. But comparing one plus 6 to Samsung S9 in hardware department, one plus loses hard. This weekend I was all day with a friend that have an one plus 6. I hated the fact that he hided the buttons to get bigger screen, and for that he had to use 2x more time to just pressing a back button or to go to menu. What's the point of having a bigger screen if you are slower doing things. 5.5 " its big enough for a phone why going bigger but with worst experience? Camera from one plus 6 was a disappointing, I still think my Htc u11 take better pictures than the one plus. My phone is +1 year and still looks and feels, much more premium than the one plus.
I didn't feel one plus software was better than htc. htc is almost stock, like one plus. I didn't notice any improvement from SD835 to SD845. both are butter smooth. Mine still is after 1 year. 6Gb or 8Gb is more placebo than you think. In 1 year I never passed 2.5Gb used memory and I test a lot of apps, since it's part of my job. When you will need the 6Gb, probably you will have a new phone, I know I will. Saying all this I do care about updates, so Htc lost me on that. 3/4 updates in a year is not good enough for me. The benefits is that is super stable. If it works....just don't touch it, but like i said....i'm a app developer...i love updates:).
one plus, have lots of updates..for the good and the bad...most of them are to correct problems that never should exist. so most of the time you will not enjoy 100% of your device because it was "beta" when it was launched. I will give a point on one plus vs samsung (I hate samsung skin), but if software is my main concern, the only brand I would consider is pixel, maybe nokia next or any android one device. To bad pixel is almost 1 year behind the rest in hardware, because if it was not, I would buy pixel 3 in a heart bit. I will only jump to a 7nm device now. Having a 10nm device..I'm not going to buy another one.

And being a disappointed customer, i have faced a lots of issues with the service. One should expect a QHD display, amazing outdoor visibility, top notch recordings and manual video modes with a flagship which oneplus fails to offer. The manual camera also fails to beat the best ones and even other decent ones. The issues with the proximity sensor while calling and others like dropped down notification bar with automatically turned on screen at instances is totally unacceptable when it comes to a phone of this range.
I ain't boasting about the S9 and myself have the LG Flagshio after being a long term user of the Samsung flagships and OP. The S9 however has an unmatched camera aperture and it counts less just to P20 pro (in terms of image clarity only) The LG offers a better wide-angle viz much better coz telephoto requires more stabilization.
When it comes to RAM, it only helps keeping background apps on and not with the initial starting speed. If you happen to keep on seeing the RAM usage, it's be a few hundred MBs below the maximum RAM available. The touchwiz has a better optimization and OP has a lot of bugs as well..

ZloiYuri, 18 Sep 2018The worst thing about this phone is price. Nothing special chinaphone but costs like it carrie... moreIf you ever touched pocophone it's reallya mind range device in everything except CPU.
Feels cheap and havea huge chin at the bottom, also has much dead space on the side.
Is good for it's price but it's not close to OnePlus good.
OnePlus is still cheap with only wireless charging missing really compared to other global brands.
Having close to stock UI and fast updates it'sa huge thing.
I like Xiaomi and own 3 phoner incl Mi Mix and 5S Plus but their phone is in a very different League compared to OnePlus

Anyone else is SERIOUSLY disapointed with the microphone (in during video recordings) ?
It's so much distorted and saturated, microphone is inferior to my old A5 2016.
Was in a concert, my frined had an old iphone 6......the difference in sound quality during video recording was astronomical.
That makes the OP6 a very bad videophone imho.

acemang, 19 Sep 2018so you are saying that if you had both phones (s9+ and 1+6) at the same price you would still ... moreYou only tell the benefits of the S9 and then state the S9 is better.
What I dislike the most in Samsungs your forgot: shit apps I don't ask for which eat up the RAM. S9 has just 4G RAM, where-as Oneplus has clean android and 6 or 8GB RAM.
Typically a clean android and a lot of RAM are the most important (for me); as these will improve the speed and performance.

OxygenOs is great (better than stock) : gesture inspired by iPhone X are great.
But the smartphone is too heavy to hold, the camera is not great, and no water resistance.

OnePlus 6's long-term view only lasts six months or until 6T is released. If you want headphone jack, then it could be even longer as the OP6 could be the last OnePlus flagship to offer it.
