The company has used a new film coating process for the OnePlus 6 to achieve an “amber-like” depth and clarity. In an effort to maintain a bright coating, the design team at OnePlus included an evaporated layer of brightening film, to make crystal clear. This is how the company achieved a sizeable glossy, transparent layer over the red coating.
