Nexus 6 vs OnePlus One - Dogfight!

- The Nexus 6 and OnePlus One are two incredibly powerful Android smartphones on the market and both of them go after the Android enthusiasts, but which is top dog? Well the Nexus 6 is certainly the more favored device by Google, running their latest software Android 5.0 Lollipop, but it might be too expensive. Costing as much as other flagships do, its not the same Nexus device we saw last year with the Nexus 5. On the side of the OnePlus One, it is the Android customizer's dream phone with stock options being interchangeable without rooting. It also runs a skin called Cyanogenmod which is preferable to many Android users with custom ROMs available.

That title was very misleading, there was no dogfighting...
OnePlus One has no flaws other than OnePlus Customer Service and certain units that people have issues with. Amazing all around
But so is the Nexus 6.
I would be surprised if they didn't have any units with problems. All phone manufacturer's experience a bad batch from time to time but customer service really needs to improve and that would be awesome.
the gps has some issues. and the touch screen drivers still need a bit of work.
besides that, it's pretty amazing.
Yannick Wolfe my touch screen was shit in August but with the latest drivers it's on par with my brother's Nexus 5 and I couldn't be more happier and the GPS issues probably don't bother me cause I keep it off or on battery saving.
Touchscreen as improved a lot, that's for sure. As for the GPS, it's still an issue so it's not a perfect phone :)
I have a lollipop build on my one plus and it is a beast..super fast, 6 to 7 hours of screen time ..easily lasts an average user 2 days, apower user 1 1/2 days..Add in the cost difference and its a no brainer..I was hoping for so much more with the latest nexus devices,but I am disappointed .
I'm gonna wait for CM12s I have lollipop on my N4 and N7 2013 so I can wait xD
Yeah but eventually one could put cyanogenmod on the nexus 6 or better yet eventually hopefully get xposed to work. The one plus is great, but media consumption is unmatched imo. after hearing the front facing stereo speakers on the nexus 6 I don't know if I could go back to rear firing ever again. Top that off with a qhd screen you got one hell of a video streaming experience. It's not the best display, but it might be second best. It might not be the best speakers but it's probably second best also. But the point is that it has both a big beautiful crystal clear display with stereo front facing speakers. I also just like the look of the nexus 6 more. The nexus 6 is top notch. The oneplus one by far has better value, but I still see the nexus 6 as being superior. Software problems are fixable on n6 but you can't change the hardware of the opo.
You're making me salivate, can't wait for 12S.
Brandon Villatuya ok so u get al that for paying double the price, hmm that makes sense
Brandon Villatuya Nexus 6: The most superior flagship billboard.
I don't know how the nexus 6 wins this dogfight. It has worse battery life, mediocre 2k display compared to others and is just flat out ugly billboard on the back of it. Only thing nexus 6 has better is camera. doesn't matter about lollipop opo will have it in few weeks
It's a better phone overall.
Actually the nexus 6 last about 32 hours normally! It's display is one of the best on the market! Not sure where you got that info! The display is the same amoled Samsung use being that's who makes the display:) nothing mediocre there! If you one who keeps your brightness down you can get 5 hours on screen time, me I keep mines on auto, so what you got 30 minutes more screen on, not a big deal lol. What device you own? Have you used either of these?
+Cleo williams No. :) Nexus 6 uses an old generation AMOLED screen which means; graininess , low brightness, easy burn in.
Oh and worse battery efficiency. :)
Alex Papas where you get you info?
I like that Marco actually picks a winner at the end of the video. So many reviewers waste 10 minutes just to say "it's up to you". It's good to see someone who is not afraid to state his opinion.
One thing I'm curious about is the ring "flash" that the Nexus 6 has. this could be really good for macro photography *if* the minimum distance to the phone (while retaining focus) is small enough...
I have bought the opo along with a protective case to dissipate the impact in case I accidently drop it face down.
If on a budget: OPO
If no problem spending about double the price for the better phone, Nexus 6.
I've had the oneplus, and sold it. Cyanogenmod was buggy enough to make the experience not worth it, though I loved the customization. So unless you are a developer, I'd go with stock lollipop, solid as a rock.
Oneplus One clearly wins.
Today I say that we don't need 2k displays I perfectly enjoy every video that I watch on my Oneplus one, I'm not able to see any pixel, I think 2k it's marketing, also the nexus 6 display is a cheap version of an amoled display as some units are presenting burning marks.
Oneplus one has a better battery life and the DCI 4k option is awesome!.
Also the size is perfect for my hands 6 inches are crazy!
Nowadays invites aren't hard to get, you can even buy the phone witouth an invite!
Funny you say 6 inches is big, the one plus is only sneakers by an hair lol. There had been no burn issues with the nexus 6 screen and FYI companies tend to get their displays from the same manufactures (amoled displays/Samsung) note 4 camera wasn't in the top ten foot smartphone cameras! The only android services that made it on DXoMark are the, z3, z2, S5, nexus 6! By the way all these smartphone use sonu sensors for the camera as well:)
kareem williams sorry man but it really make the diference on handling one hand or two hands, one plus one are on the edge of an one hand used phone, nexus 6 are on the 2 hands territory! so 5,.5 inches turns out to be the best of two worlds, gret display to enjoy your phone, and gret phone size to still hanlde it one hand! sorry for my bad english
in almost every review i have seen, you guys miss the sound quality/performance of the nexus 6, it surprised me how much better it sounds ( i came from a nexus 4 )
Both are amazing. However the one plus one I would say is a dead tie with the nexus when running lollipop. I have a cyanogen nightly mod running and it is flat out fast. Completely outperformed my moto x 2014. Which was faster when running the cyanogen mod 11s from the factory. Expect huge performance increase with lollipop
I bought my OPO through an invite 3 months ago just as I was about to give up on getting one. I am really happy with the phone and I have no intention of upgrading again for at least a couple of years. Does everything good enough without any issues that are a turn off which is what I want. I believe if a phone is great in one field and lacking in another field this is not a good phone but the OPO is not one of these phones
OnePlus support almost non existing...i have with random reboot and then developed issues with my mic not working. This is now ongoing for 2 months ...OnePlus will not reply to my support emails...2. they dont want to replace my handset....4. they will close your ticket as solved without solving the problem. 5. i had to open a paypal case which made them to offer me a replacement. Owned phone since Aug 2014, only used it for 2 months...been trying to recover my money and replacement since. Would I want a replacement after the service from support? No....so now they dont want to give refund hence paypal chasing them.
Major major issue with support. Got more important things to sort out than to chase OnePlus support for stuff like these
Nice dog fight, I would pick the Nexus 6 even though its the pricier of the two. At least I would know who to contact if something goes wrong with the phone.
Had my Oneplus One since July. I looooooove it. Amazing battery life and zero problems here. Running 25r
that sandstone black edition gets marked up pretty easy which sucks because it does feel great in the hand
Why would you use the opo on screen buttons? Thats another great thing about the opo. It's an actual 5.5in of useable screen because it has physical buttons.
Have you not dug through developer settings? You can turn up the animation speed.
OnePlus One wins easily... I have one and screen scharpness is the same as nexus 6 (you cant see a difference above 300 ppi so why even bother?!) the onplus one is user friendly, if you don't want to tweak you can easily use the exact same way as the nexus... Specs are the same because the nexus needs more processor and battery for its larger and higher resolution screen... And yes nexus gets fast updates and it has software that is build specifically for the device but so does oneplus one, they only have one phone right now and updates have been perfect and software is perfectly optimized... oh and the onplus is like 2 times cheaper ... I'm really disappointed in the nexus, i thought they would try to compete against the onplus making a good cheap phone but nope, they fucked up...
...big time and very well said.
You should say we were expectin good affordable nexus successor not cheap ;-)
Seeing a difference over 300~PPI is all about the distance you hold it from your eyes, remember.
A 40" 1080p screen looks great at 30ft away, but get closer and nope.
Just a factor to bear in mind.
jackr88 if i'm not wrong, on a 300 ppi plus screen pixels aren't visible no matter how close you hold the object to your face... you would need a magnifier of some sort to spot pixels...
lennertbontinck you are wrong, that 300ppi number is taking into consideration that most people won't have their smart phone inches from their face. But if you do this, you can start to see pixels, especially on some amoled with pentile matrix displays.
Guys after watching this video and a nice comparison, I bought the One Plus One, which is now almost 2 months precisely. For the price it's really a very very good phone with amazing features.... Till now no issues concerning Cyanogen MOD SW (OS). Seems to be gr8 one indeed.
Forgot to mention the front facing speakers on the nexus 6.
Regardless of the price, which androids smartphone is the fastest now? Which one would you buy?
If you think about it they are really in an eternal tie. This is all due to the cyanogen mod that is really available on any new android phone this also means the Nexus 6 because with super user access you really can do anything on your android device this includes changing the pixels for battery life or even running a different kernel the only con on the nexus 6 would be that u have to install cyanogen mod manually and the difference between the two phones would be the design and generally the way the person uses it and the look and feel of it then again that's my opinion
Isn't the battery life rodonkulous on the 1+1 and atrocious on the N6? How was that not highlighted more?
they said that Oneplus One can't run Music and Camera at the same time
Looked like MKBHD's Nexus 9 review at 6:25
Yeah. (:
You know you can adjust an animation timing on developing options on the Nexus phone!
Jeeze look at the N6's screen! You would think that Google would add an option to add a resizable Keyboard for 1-Hand Swipe typers.
opo is much better when we make a parallel between hardware that was installed in product and its endprice.
You never once mentioned the cpu, gpu or ram of the Nexus 6.
Proud to be a OnePlus One owner :)
I think you forget to say that oneplus one has capactive buttons, and a better front facing camera.
i bought a nexus 5 a while ago, 2 days later got the one plus one invite ... * sigh * decisions decisions
I would've gone for the Nexus 6, if not for the average batterye life. I simply prefer the larger screen, but at what cost?.
I've tried both of these awesome devices. The Nexus is my favorite because of the simplicity and overall compatibility with my other devices (i.e. my TV, watch, car). The Oneplus is great being able to choose everything and the awesome feel of the phone. I just wish the price for the Nexus was lower and the back had a better grip. I guess it just depends on preference.
I had very high praise & thoughts for the Nexus line, until the Nexus 6 and (to an extent) the Nexus 9 came out, just goes to prove there's no "go-to" in the tech world these days.
My money's on the OnePlus One :)
Ex-Nexus fanboy here. I bought a new Nexus 6 and in less than 2 weeks of use it developed obvious burn in on the top and bottom of the screen. Sold it quick before it lost it value and picked back up my OPO and it is clearly the better phone overall, especially since the Nexus 6 is twice the price. Aside from CyanogenMod and the mediocre camera on the OPO, its an amazing phone.
You're all missing the point. Even if the Nexus 'wins' this entirely subjective battle, it is by increments at most. Are you all really willing to put up an extra £2-300 for those most minute of improvements? However you justify it, ignoring the OnePlus One in favour of the bloated, expensive flagships absolutely baffles.
The only couple things oneplus one is losing to is specs and camera, but screen opo is better. Nexus 6 is known for terrible colors when you change brightness down or up too high. Software almost same just a little more features in OPO. Only the cpu/gpu is what makes nexus win... Battery life on Oneplus one is too good.. I got 6 hours on screen time twice with 20% charge left.
Where is the "Dogfight"
was that the middle tennessee state app? i just got accepted there! i'm in chattanooga
another difference in camera is that the OPO have raw support :)
G4- nexus6- one plus one-wish one is better please i need help thanks
just looking at this video where he holds the nexus in his hands demonstrates that they made this phone far too big, whats the betting that they will go back to a smaller size for the next one.
Where's Aaron?
How is this a dogfight video when you mostly just mention specs which can be easily found on the website. You need to do more comparison of the devices in terms of real world benchmarks, camera shootouts and so on... If I want to know about specs of the devices, I can just go to the oneplus or motorola sites...
I have no complaints with the Oneplus One! It's definitely the most amazing phone I've ever owned and I've had several other high end flagship phones!
If u want to buy Oneplus one you can get invite / buy it from their deal really easily. If you want OPO u can get it.
I find the Desing of the Nexus 6 ugly, it looks fat. While the One Plus One seems lot slimmmer.
Can i use wifi hotspot on OPO?
lollipop is shit. it just looks cool. i prefer kitkat way more actually
I just want to know how the Nexus won that.
There's no huge difference in the display upon viewing, but yet you sacrifice a ton of battery life for it. The performance is just as fast on the OnePlus One for half the price of that Nexus, and I honestly think the design of the Nexus is terrible. I loved the Nexus 4 when LG designed it. The OnePlus One is a very nice and sleek phone, and you just simply cannot beat the price.
OPO 64GB = $350, Nexus 6 64GB = $700
it's literally 2x the price.
389$ *
Rishabh Pahwa no it's $350, source: I just bought one.
tinostarks same, its $350, and the phone is spectacular
Idk man. I let a friend buy it from my account, maybe it was extra shipping then. He night have taken express, I didn't notice, chill :)
OPO is the best phone I used, and I been around note 4/iphone 6. Google is the customer service : ).
Nexus 6 just came out, once development community gets rolling will b untouchable.
which one should i buy it become tougher to choose struck at nexus 6, iphone 6, note4 and htc m8 help me..
Buy the OPO!
Get 1+1!
I am sorry but crap can't be mixed up with chocolate!
These 2k displays really aren't ready for prime time yet. Brightness and battery life suffer far too much. The note 4 not withstanding, I think they're a generation too soon.
They'll release the successors that still utilize qhd next year claiming to give you better battery life than previous year model, that's how they'll sucker you into shelling out another $600-900.
are u from OH?
Cyanogen is not the smoothest os in a phone. I own both the One Plus and Nexus 6. There are glitches marring a pretty decent phone where stock Android on the Nexus is smooth. The battery on the One is great but the Nexus battery life is pretty good too.
.
The Nexus 6 subpar battery life is enough to sway me away, along with its hefty price tag.
Well, OPO in my opinion is surely better than the Nexus 6?
I would also take in the battery life more. So please include this in your next video!
Namit,
Ultimate Destroyers.
I love my one plus one, and actually the battery life lasts me all day long even random moments of playing a game for an hour, browsing facebook, watching youtube videos, games that require more resources do eat at the battery life, but overall, it is a great phone to dick around on mod and tweak every week for a new feel.
lollipop 5.1.1 on one plus one now
OPO & N6 have the same camera sensor....
Just got an invite for the one plus one from reddit because i don't want to wait all the way till tuesday
HELP, Im looking to upgrade from note 2. I currently run a custom version of cynogenmod 12 made for my note 2. I dont mind big phones but im stuck on which one is better to buy new, the oneplus 1 or note 6. Any suggestions? P.S plz dont factor cost into the equation!
huggi2 Note is better if you're not factoring cost.
huggi2 note 6 or nexus 6 if nexus and ur not factoring cost definetly nexus
kenneth osele Note 6?!?
+Don't trust me, I'm crazy.. He is from the Future.
thanks for sharing
I've got a OnePlus One and it's amazing. Just wanted to let you guys know that you can now buy it without an invite every Tuesday. Cheers!
It's funny how a machintosh user presents Android and his opensources :')
I'd say the real winner here is the nexus 6 running cyanogenmod lollypop. Also, I always choose phones because they have oled, the concept that this is worse for the oled is retarded. The blacks are absolute black, the colors fly off the screen, and the power usage is better for most applications. The only thing lacking is brightness, which isn't a problem for most unless you use your phone in daylight more often than inside. Either way, both are great phones, and i love cyanogenmod, but I'm found with the nexus. Stereo speakers, clever led indicator placement (after you unlock it), oled, quad hd - this sucker is fully loaded. I do wish it had a replaceable battery, but it does have turbo charging.
2:56 LOL XD
I have a oneplus one with Lollipop with Blisspop rom, its way better than nromal cyanogen, WAY BETTER
***** I don't understand how you have your own website but in the video you are showing The Verge! Yes, The Verge is an excellent website but that is terrible promotion on your end. Marketing 101 promote your own products not others!!
how to update 5.1.1 on one plus one
you have to put it to your computer
Guys, I'm going to get a new phone in roughly 6-7 months (lol!) should I buy the OnePlusOne or is there a likely chance that the 'OnePlusTwo' will be out?
Cheers !
wait for oneplus two. I'm in the same boat tbh.
yolobabyy7 I'd say wait 6 months until you actually want to buy the phone, then choose...
Do you mean thé twoplus two
yolobabyy7 I'm a bit late, but seems like it's gonna be out this week. Maybe tomorrow.
Vaibhav Makar Cheers dude for the heads-up!
I think I'll wait till around Christmas to get the phone which means I'll have enough time to read some reviews and make my final judgment on whether I'll order it or not.
And thanks again, I was about to succumb to the iPhone trap x'D
***** i thought you're going to run some benchmarks rather talk about the two phones. Not even close to a 'dogfight'
N6: 700€
OPO: 300€
pls.
Good Comparison dude ... However you forgot to compare the price difference ... in which case OPO is a clear winner hands down ... :D
COME ON WITH THE CUSTOMIZING ONEPLUSONE. NEXUS 6 HAS CM12 TOO
nuff said.
oneplus one for the money!
posting from my Nexus 6. came from the iPhone 6
OnePlus does not back up warranties at all. I have a phone with a defective handset mic that is a common issue. They are of ZERO help. DO NOT BUY FROM ONEPLUS! They do not take care of their customers.
You can download cyanogen mod 12 on a nexus 6.. So... Nexus 6 wins
picklickwick it won't be optimized as OPO !
adminmovie
Idgaf everything is better on nexus otherwise
One plus one is a very good phone.
if it where not for the OnePlus Ones crazy price point, I would easily say the Nexus 6.
I must've entered in bizzaro world.
TheMusketITuckedIt Huh?
good luck replacing your Oneplus one screen if its broken.
they dont sell parts !!
i see one plus one is better because the price with technology
Sorry Jennifer but your obsession with the the Oneplus One, is showing. You think that a phone that next to no one can get can be as good as the latest offering from Google? No way! I don't have a Nexus 6, but I know technology well enough to know that the Nexus 6, if it were a dog would piss all over the Oneplus One, and it would expect the Oppo derivative to clean up after it. Just because you bought the Oneplus One with your own money, doesn’t mean you can ignore the fact that it's actually not that good of a phone.

Comparing a phone that you can buy with one that you can't does not make much sense.
Nice video.
Who the hell are you all trying to fool. The only phone that even compares to the nexus 6 is the note 4. Stop the insanity please
we all expected a affordable nexus 6
so the win goes to one plus one
Fucking Samsung needs to hurry up with its lollipop update. I have the note 4 and the phone is awesome, my only complaint is the connection issues and the slow youtube, but that's something Google has to solve.
OPO is Our Choice!!!
People hating on the N6 cause they can't afford it or get it ;).
yo ! man your awesome at electronics
two phones I want an cant order
anyway, its a battle between two chinese manufactures. moto is now a brand of lenovo and oneplus one is also from a chinese manufacture. but the price difference is huge! i just bid a 16g new oneplus one from ebay at $317.00 but at such a low price may i bought a fully functional used nexus 5 without its next gen. hahaha, lol and lmao! i am so smart!
So far I've been disappointed in what I've seen of the Nexus 6. Outside of Lollipop, there's nothing special about this big phone. Think I'm going to just wait and get the HTC One M9 (If that's what it's going to be called).
