Red OnePlus 6 becomes official and does not cost as much as you think

Simply nicknamed OnePlus 6 Red, the new color version of the handset would not be a limited edition similar to the Lava Red OnePlus 5T, or at least OnePlus does not say so explicitly. If anything, the company seems to want to make flamboyant color a regular option for future OnePlus consumers. The company admits that it has always been a little reluctant when it comes to diversifying its color portfolio, mainly by launching black and white devices, but not more.

As usual, a new color finish reveals a new set of technical challenges company had to tackle. When it comes to the fiery color, it's easy to go to the seaside and oversaturate things, but OnePlus contained and softened things in order to get a more amber finish.

The OnePlus 6 Red will be available with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage and will cost as much as the Midnight Black and Silk White versions of the phone that came in the same configuration – $ 579 / $ 569. As we said, you will be able to get the red OnePlus in all areas where the company sells goods. To put things in perspective, the Mirror Black 6GB / 64GB version of the phone sells for $ 529, while the 8GB / 256GB version sells for $ 629.
