OnePlus 6 ‘Infinity War’ edition is real, coming to the UK

The latest installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Avengers: Infinity War, drops April 27. Major brands are taking part in the enormous promotional push for the film, including Coca-Cola, Quicken Loans, Ziploc, and Chinese smartphone manufacturer OnePlus.

We heard rumors that OnePlus would be involved in the marketing campaign for Avengers: Infinity War, and assumed that there would be a customized OnePlus 6 device on offer. However, we now know it for sure, via Deadline.

To help promote the film, the upcoming OnePlus 6 Infinity War Edition will likely feature Avengers branding and a different color scheme than the normal edition will offer, similar to the OnePlus 5T Star Wars Edition that came out last year. It is confirmed that the Infinity War edition will feature 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal memory running on the Snapdragon 845 chipset.

We can also confirm that the Infinity War phone will definitely land in the U.K. sometime this year. However, we don’t have a launch date or any information on other parts of the world.

The OnePlus 6 is a hotly anticipated device. However, the revelation that the device will feature a notched display was met with severe criticism from consumers, and the rumored price tag in the $500+ range is causing controversy as well. We’ll have to wait until the phone launches to find out if OnePlus can continue its streak of success.
