OnePlus says the N6x was Amazon India’s highest-selling smartphone in August 2026. The September 25 claim gives the budget model a fresh sales milestone after its July 31 launch, but OnePlus has not publicly disclosed unit sales in the material reviewed here. That distinction matters: the ranking is a manufacturer claim, not an independently audited shipment figure.
What is confirmed
- OnePlus India announced on September 25 that the N6x ranked No. 1 on Amazon India for August 2026.

Why the Amazon milestone is notable
The N6x entered a crowded Indian budget market with a straightforward pitch: a large battery, high-refresh display and basic 5G hardware at around ₹20,000. OnePlus’s own product page frames several claims specifically against India’s ₹15,000–₹20,000 segment, which helps explain the intended competitive position.
The sales claim should still be read narrowly. OnePlus says the phone led Amazon India in August, but the announcement does not provide audited unit volumes or enough data to compare total India-wide sales across online and offline channels. It therefore supports an Amazon-specific popularity milestone, not a claim that the N6x was India’s overall best-selling smartphone.
What buyers should know beyond the headline
The 7,000mAh battery is the standout hardware feature. OnePlus advertises up to 2.5 days of use, but explicitly notes that real battery life varies with network conditions, apps, settings and usage. The official page also advertises battery-health retention above 80% after 1,600 complete charge cycles; that is a controlled-lab claim rather than a guarantee for every owner.
The 120Hz display can make scrolling feel smoother, but it is an HD-class LCD rather than a premium high-resolution OLED. Likewise, the 13MP main and 5MP front cameras position this as an essentials-first phone rather than a camera-focused model. Buyers comparing value should weigh those compromises against the large battery and durability features.
