Best OnePlus 6T screen protectors
The OnePlus 6T is the first OnePlus device to come with an in-display fingerprint sensor. But the question is, will a screen protector break the functionality of the sensor? The answer is no if you choose your protector wisely.
A thick screen could indeed mess up the accuracy of an in-display fingerprint scanner. So the best route to ensuring best results would be to get one directly from OnePlus. Case in point, the OnePlus 6T will ship out with a plastic one pre-applied. However, if you feel prefer tempered glass, OnePlus has yet to offer one. Although it will probably do so, soon enough.
While we wait on that, you can look at these third-party tempered glass screen protectors.
Orzero Tempered Glass Screen Protector
The Orzero screen protector is made of such a thin layer of glass, you won’t even feel it. Even so, it’s really really tough (rated 9H) as to keep the 6T’s display from being scratched by sharp objects. The protector offers 99% HD clarity and preserves the original touch experience. The product ships with a dust remover and screen wipe. It’s available in a 2-pack.
KuGi Tempered Glass Screen Protector
Accessory maker KuGi has also made a tempered glass screen protector for the OnePlus 6T. It’s rated 9H in hardness and also smudge-and-fingerprint-resistant. KuGi says the accessory boasts 99% touchscreen accuracy and retina clarity, so you won’t even notice the difference once it is on.
TopACE Bye-Bye-Bubble Screen Protector
This tempered glass screen protector from TopACE also boasts a 9H rating in surface harness and 99% transparency for a great viewing experience. It benefits from an oleophobic coating, so you can say bye-bye to fingerprints. The accessory is available in All-Clear or with a Black border. TopACE says it’s bubble-free guaranteed.
OnePlus 6T cases
Again the best solution, when you’re looking for protection for your new and shiny OnePlus 6T, is to go for the official cases. The company will start selling them soon, and you have a few options to choose from.
OnePlus Bumper Case
A stylish case featuring shock-resistant bumpers and a robust outer shell. Featuring a slim profile, the case is the perfect way to go if you want to make sure your OnePlus 6T stays in pristine condition.

OnePlus Silicone Case
The official Silicone case is another neat protective option offered by OnePlus.

Almiao Ultra-Thin Case
Since at launch the OnePlus 6T only comes in Midnight Black and Mirror Black, you might feel like wanting to add a splash of color to your device. A case can do that, like for example the one offered by Almiao. It’s super-thin and also crafted of durable material as to be able to provide excellent protection against stretches and scruffs. Get in bold colors like Rose Gold, Red or Pink.
OnePlus 6T audio accessories
OnePlus Type-C bullets
The OnePlus 6T is the first smartphone in the company’s portfolio to come sans the 3.5mm headphone jack. Which is why you’ll need to use USB Type-C headphones with the new phone.
Obviously, the company will soon start offering its own earphones in the form of the Type-C Bullets which cost only $20. They come with advanced DAC support for superior audio and a subtle in-line remote controller for easy pausing or answering a phone call.
OnePlus Bullets Wireless
If you’re into something more modern, OnePlus also offers a wireless alternative in the form of the Bullets Wireless. They are available in a wrap-around neckbud style and can give you 5 hours of sound with just 10 minutes of charge. You can grab them in Black, but with the OnePlus 6T, the company also introduced a Red version.

This tiny device can juice up 60% of battery in just 30 minutes. Made of premium aluminum and reflective silicone and polycarbonate material, the charge is built to last.
Anker PowerCore external battery
