A few hours after it held the global launch event in London, OnePlus has now announced the arrival of its most recent flagship device – the OnePlus 6 in its homeland, China. Alongside the regular OnePlus 6, the company also announced the OnePlus 6 Avengers: Infinity War Limited Edition in the country.

OnePlus 6 fans in China are in luck, as all the OnePlus 6 variants in that country cost less than what was announced yesterday for other countries. The 6GB RAM + 64 GB storage variant will sell for 3,199 Yuan (~$503), the 6GB RAM + 128 GB storage model for 3,599 Yuan (~$566), the 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage model for 3,599 Yuan (~$566), the 8 GB RAM + 256 GB storage for 3,999 Yuan (~$628), while the 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage model in silk white will go for 3,599 Yuan (~$566).

Gizchina News of the week
With the headphone jack intact, the OnePlus 6, unlike previous models, is now more water resistant. The OnePlus 6 flaunts the biggest screen ever found on any OnePlus device, featuring a notched 6.28 inches display protected with Corning Gorilla Glass 5 with the trendy 19:9 aspect ratio. The device is powered by the same chipset found in most other flagships so far released in 2018 including the Galaxy S9 duo and the LG G7 ThinQ – the Snapdragon 845 chipset with up to 8GB of RAM and as much as 256GB of storage, but still lacks the microSD card slot for memory expansion.
Powered by a 3,300mAh with dash charge, the Oneplus 6 boots Android 8 Oreo (with Oxygen OS 5.1 on top) out of the box, but interestingly, OnepLus beforehand has announced the device will support the new Android P Beta from Google, giving you a sneak peek at some of the new features of the next Android OS.
Packed in a box styled like Iron, the OnePlus 6 Avengers: Infinity War Edition is the same as the regular OnePlus 6, albeit its Carbon-textured back with a gold Avengers logo near the bottom, as well as a Gold plated alert slider.
