OnePlus has confirmed that its next flagship, OnePlus 6 is set to launch in India on May 17, following its global launch on May 16. While most of the specifications around the next 'flagship killer' have surfaced on the Internet in various reports, the hype around the smartphone just does not seem to die down. To take it even further, OnePlus CEO Carl Pei has recently posted a teaser video on his Facebook account. The all-new teaser of the smartphone hints at a limited edition of the OnePlus 6. And since the company has announced its association with the upcoming Marvel movie, 'Avengers: Infinity Wars', OnePlus is likely to launch an "Avengers: Infinity Wars" limited edition of the OnePlus 6.
The new teaser video released by Carl Pei again highlights the OnePlus 6's enhanced speed. The new OnePlus flagship will be powered by a Qualcomm's most powerful chipset till date, the Snapdragon 845 SoC and is expected to come in two memory variants with one carrying a 6GB RAM and the other an 8GB RAM.
In a tweet earlier, OnePlus hinted at the water resistance feature being present on the OnePlus 6. The tweet read, "Don't you just hate it when you have to stop using your phone when it rains? So do we ;)." Attached was a video of falling raindrops. The teaser, however, does not reveal the level of water resistance on the smartphone. It can be safely assumed that the OnePlus 6 will feature an IP67 water resistance, considering that it is the industry norm for Android flagships.
