THE ONEPLUS 6 will be the Chinese phone maker's next flagship smartphone, and while it's not set to launch until June, there's already plenty of rumours surrounding the handset. We've rounded up everything we know about the so-called OnePlus 6 so-far below. The OnePlus 6 will make its official debut on 16 May at a launch event in London, the company has confirmed. According to rumours, the phone will be available to buy less than a week later on 21 May. 749 (around £530) when it goes on sale later this year.

4/5/18: Yet more images of the OnePlus 6 have surfaced online showing off what looks like a glass design, adding more weight to the rumours that the handset could support wireless charging. The hands-on pictures, via ITHome, don't reveal much else we don't already know - there's a display notch, dual cameras on the rear and a redesigned fingerprint sensor underneath.

However, a second image shows the handset's specs - albeit in Chinese - and confirming that the OnePlus 6 will be made available with 6GB RAM, 64GB storage and Google's Android 8.1 Oreo OS. 2/5/18: TechTastic has got its mitts on yet more images of the OnePlus 6 ahead of its launch in two week's time, including one that shows the handset sized-up against the iPhone X (below).

While the image doesn't reveal much we didn't already know about the OnePlus 6, it does confirm that its screen will be bigger than Apple's 5.8in offering, complete with a smaller notch cutout. 1/5/18: Alleged pricing details for the OnePlus 6 have surfaced online, courtesy of True-Tech. It has heard from a "reliable source" that the 64GB variant will be priced at Rs 36,999 in India (around £400), while the 128GB variant will fetch Rs 39,999 (around £440).

There's no word as to how much the rumoured 256GB OnePlus 6 handset will cost. 30/4/18: The OnePlus 6 has been teased on video, thanks to a bunch of fans who got their hands on the device ahead of its release. The clip (below), posted to the official OnePlus YouTube channel, doesn't give too much away as the handset has been blurred out and the mention of certain features censored.

However, the footage does suggest that the OnePlus 6 will be available in white, while another shot of the device confirms that it will retain - as expected - the 3.5mm headphone jack. 27/4/18: A live image of the OnePlus 6 (below) has surfaced online, courtesy of iGyuaan, ahead of its imminent 16 March unveiling, showing off the handset's almost bezel-less FullView display complete with an iPhone-style notch.

26/4/18: The OnePlus 6 will support Galaxy S9-esque super slo-mo video recording, a teaser image posted - and promptly deleted - by OnePlus India has confirmed. 25/4/18: OnePlus has confirmed that its much-teased flagship, the OnePlus 6, will launch at an event in London on 16 May at 5pm BST. For the first time, the firm will be selling around 1,000 tickets to fans who want to attend, with prices starting at £16 if you buy before 27 April.

Sketches shared by Lau (above) also suggest that the OnePlus 6 will be curvier than previous OnePlus devices, and hints that the flagship will also see more vibrant colour options. Although unconfirmed, the glass back is likely also a sign that the OnePlus 6 will be the first to support wireless charging.

23/4/18: OnePlus has pushed out yet another teaser ahead of the unveiling of the OnePlus 6, this time promising "expert craftsmanship" and "new materials". All signs point to a ceramic back that will offer wireless charging, similar to the Essential Phone, and the tweeted image (below) reveals that the rear of the phone will come with a "Designed by OnePlus" engraving. More immersion in a refined form factor. If not ceramic, OnePlus likely will go for an iPhone X-style glass design, which would also bring wireless charging functionality to its smartphone lineup for the first time.
