Is it any good?
Priced at ₹44,999 for 8GB + 256GB and ₹50,999 for 12GB + 256GB, the OnePlus Nord 6 pushes the Nord line into upper-mid-range territory while packing a 9,000 mAh silicon-carbon battery into a 217g, 8.5mm frame. It also carries OnePlus India's clearest software commitment right now: OxygenOS 16 on Android 16 with four generations of Android OS upgrades and six years of security updates.
Performance comes from Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.1 storage, driving a 6.78-inch 1.5K (2,772 x 1,272) 165Hz AMOLED display rated at 1,800 nits HBM and 3,600 nits peak brightness under Crystal Guard protection. You also get IP66, IP68, IP69 and IP69K water resistance, MIL-STD-810H certification, 80W SUPERVOOC charging with 27W wired reverse charging, Wi-Fi 7 and NFC.
The obvious trade-off at ₹44,999 is the rear camera setup: beyond the 50MP Sony LYT-600 main sensor with OIS and 32MP autofocus selfie camera, you only get a basic 8MP ultrawide and no telephoto lens.
