OnePlus expands its much-hyped Hasselblad relationship to the OnePlus 9, rather than only the 9 Pro, which is fantastic. With enhanced sensors, the same charging speed, and the same display refresh rate as the One plus 9 Pro, the One plus 9 appears to be a worthy successor to the One plus 8.
Price & Color:
Is it, however, a better value than One Plus' own 8T and 8 Pro with new enhancements, how does it stack up against other brands' offerings? Now is the time to find out. At present, this model is priced at Rs. 130,999 in Pakistan. Astral Black, Arctic Sky, and Winter Mist are the three colors this phone is available in.
Camera:
he 50-megapixel ultra-wide camera has a professional-style sensor and lens combination, while the third camera has a 2-megapixel monochrome sensor. Because the OnePlus 9 lacks a telephoto camera, all magnification is done digitally. The main 48-megapixel sensor is taken from the One Plus 8 Pro, with Hasselblad's color science added for good measure. The OnePlus 9's cameras are a significant improvement over its predecessors, owing to improved sensors.
RAM & Storage:
One Plus 9 comes in two options. One is with 12GB RAM and 256GB internal storage, and the other one has 8GB RAM and 128GB of storage. The Winter Mist trim's pastel lilac tint is lovely, but the shiny surface is prone to fingerprints.
Display:
The OnePlus 9 has a 6.55-inch AMOLED display. It offers full HD+ resolution. In addition, an in-display fingerprint sensor is included, which, despite its oddly low positioning, performs admirably. The display of the 9 model is flat, unlike the 9 Pro's curved edges, yet the borders are evenly thin all around. In the upper left corner, there's a puch-hole cutout for the selfie camera.
Battery:
In addition, an HD video battery loop test lasted an hour longer, coming in at over 17 hours, since OnePlus 9 has a 4500 mAh battery, it is expected that this phone would last all day with the regular use, including a bit of gaming, movie watching along with social media and Chrome usage. With intensive camera use and gaming, the battery can be depleted in less than a day, but in most circumstances, you can expect to get a full day's worth of use on a single charge.
The OnePlus 9 charges remarkably quickly, even when it runs out of battery, thanks to the 65W charger. It has an excellent battery life, even better than the 8 series, in my opinion.
Processor/Chipset:
The OnePlus 9 has the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 as the OnePlus 8, but it also supports an additional 5G band in comparison to other models. The OnePlus 9 lacks an IP designation for dust and water resistance, as well as wireless charging capabilities. One Plus is likely to keep these features reserved for its Pro model, but the price of this model is high itself, hence users can expect more advanced features in the simple OnePlus 9 model.
From the start, the performance has been excellent. The OnePlus 9 is a more pleasant phone to use than the OnePlus 8T. The lighter weight and thinner thickness contribute to a superior in-hand feel, while the flat display virtually eliminates inadvertent touches. Any gesture feels quick and smooth because to the 120Hz refresh rate.
The OnePlus 9 can run even the most demanding games in the Google Play Store, just like any other pro phone, hence there have been no complaints in that regard. Because everything is produced at full-HD+ rather than QHD+, so it doesn't get too hot even after long usage hours. On the other hand, has removed optical stabilization, which I believe was a curious decision.
Extra Features:
In my personal opinion , the OnePlus 9 is a decent phone, but considering the price range it could have been better in terms of extra features and specifications. However, there are few things missing and the price is also quite high that we settle for any less.
The display is fantastic; the colors are rich, the brightness is outstanding, and the viewing angles are better than before. The stereo effect provided by the earpiece and bottom speaker is excellent, and the volume level is enough as this is a high-end phone, all these features need to be taken into account. This makes gaming and watching videos a true pleasure.
