After giving a brief glimpse of its next budget smartphone, OnePlus has now confirmed when it will arrive. The OnePlus N6x is set to launch in India next week. It will be the second model in the company’s new N-series lineup, coming after the OnePlus N6. At the same time, the brand has revealed the phone’s appearance and the colour options buyers can expect.
OnePlus Confirms India Launch Timeline and Availability
The OnePlus N6x will make its India debut on July 31st at 12 pm. The smartphone will be sold through Amazon India and the OnePlus India website.
From the official images, the OnePlus N6x appears to borrow several design cues from the Nord 5. It features a narrow pill-shaped camera island on the back, paired with a clean rear panel that avoids unnecessary detail. The frame is flat, while the power button and volume controls are placed on the right edge. Anyone who preferred the simple look of the Nord 5 is likely to feel at home with this design.
The design also points to OnePlus aiming higher than the price might suggest. The phone has much in common with the Nord 5. That choice could help it appeal to buyers who want a polished look without paying flagship prices. OnePlus will offer the N6x in two colours: Burgundy Red and Ice Blue.
Expected Specifications, Pricing and Market Position
So far, OnePlus has said little about the N6x beyond its design and colour options. The rest is still open to guesswork. Even so, the phone is expected to follow a familiar path. It will likely share much of its hardware with an existing model. Buyers can expect a large battery, current software, and a set of features that should meet everyday needs without fuss.
The N6x may also have much in common with the recently launched OnePlus N6. If it keeps the same battery, it should last comfortably through a full day of regular use.
The OnePlus N6 is priced at Rs 22,999 for the model with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. The N6x will likely take a place below it, or sit beside it as another choice. That would give buyers one more option in the affordable mid-range market.
The launch is only days away, so the remaining details should not stay unknown for long. For now, the N6x looks like a phone that follows the familiar OnePlus style while keeping the price within reach. Anyone waiting for a budget OnePlus device may find it worth holding off a little longer before making a decision.
Final Words
While many of its specs are yet to be revealed, the OnePlus N6x looks like another intriguing addition in the brand’s budget lineup. The launch date is now fixed, the design looks very similar to Nord and the colour options are new, so it has already provided a reason for buyers to keep an eye on this budget smartphone. But good looks aren’t all a phone needs, unless it’s a fashion show.
The true verdict will be given when OnePlus unveils all the hardware, pricing and performance specs. With the right mix of value and usability, the N6x could prove to be an attractive option in the crowded mid-range segment in India. The wait is now on, and if you are planning to buy a new smartphone, you might want to wait for a couple of days more.
