The OnePlus 8T may have been launched recently, and it’s still pretty hard to come by for American readers, but it seems like the Chinese company is on its way to work on the OnePlus 9.
91mobiles has taken over the CAD versions of the upcoming OnePlus 9 and unsurprisingly it seems to take many of its design cues from the previous model, including a flat screen, a corner camera, and a hole-punch selfie camera in the corner. upper left. from the screen.
But there are differences, of course. For one thing, the site says the phone will feature a larger screen than the 8T, which itself wasn’t exactly small at 6.55 inches. The camera bump also looks a bit smaller, and is more reminiscent of the Samsung Galaxy Note 20.
There’s not much else to take out of the picture, although it appears the company will continue with the in-display fingerprint reader, a staple of OnePlus devices since the OnePlus 6T, and you’ll see a three-camera array with LEDs. flash.
It is worth noting that in recent years OnePlus has been released with two versions of their phones: a regular model and a Pro edition. The above CAD rendering is purely for the regular model, and the Pro version may have a design more radical or more cameras.
The 91mobiles source has only two details in terms of specs: first, as mentioned above, that it will be larger than the 6.55-inch OnePlus 8T, and second that it will feature a 120Hz refresh rate display. That’s perhaps not surprising, given that the 8T shared this display spec, but an earlier rumor suggested that OnePlus might be pushing things to 144Hz, and that seems to be not the case after all.
Based on previous rumors, the OnePlus 9 will arrive in March 2021 and will likely be powered by Qualcomm’s upcoming Snapdragon 875 SoC, backed by at least 8GB of RAM. We’re also hopeful that the 64-megapixel camera sensor originally rumored for the OnePlus 8T will make its way to the OnePlus 9. The phone is likely to have 65W fast charging support and runs an Android 11-based version of the OxygenOS. of the company. .
Prices are still up in the air and OnePlus has gradually increased the cost of its phones in recent years. But given that Samsung says it will launch and launch the Galaxy S21 in January, hopefully OnePlus will be more aware of the need to be competitive when its new phones arrive two months later.
