OnePlus 6T McLaren Edition Launched in India

Celebrating its fifth anniversary, OnePlus has tied up with McLaren and launched one its 'fastest' smartphones in India - the 6T McLaren Edition. This, both the company's claim, is the beginning of a partnership which 'celebrates speed'.

How? The OnePlus 6T McLaren Edition is the only model in the 6T lineup to feature a whopping 10GB of RAM. While internal storage capacity is capped at 256GB, the added memory should make it a faster phone overall - and help improve video capture and multitasking.

The 6T McLaren will also be offered with the 'Warp Charge 30' technology, which adds new ICs in the phone and charger along with a new power management system which charges the battery with 30 watts of power flow. The higher power flow should allow 'a day's power' in just 20 minutes of charging, OnePlus claims, without heating/performance penalties.
