WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THE ONEPLUS EVENT!!!

 Oneplus, a Chinese smartphone manufacturer every year organizes 2 big events to unveil the best they can offer for the best price. Last year they launched their oneplus 8 series of phones and that was a big hit. So we expect oneplus to launch their next flagship series that is the Oneplus 9 series in a few months and here is want we expect oneplus to launch in that event.

ONEPLUS 9 AND 9 PRO

Oneplus since the launch of the oneplus 7 series has started to give 2 phones in a single event, one which is bang for the buck and skips off some features to bring the price down like wireless charging, IP68 rating. And then we have the high end PRO phone which directly fights with the big players of this game. For example, Oneplus 8 pro was the first truly "flagship" phone by oneplus as they didn't cut any corners (except the camera's). 

So same goes for the upcoming 9 series of smartphones. We can expect to get a oneplus 9 and a Oneplus 9 pro.

The specs for these models will be super high end (obviously). So a snapdragon 888 chip, 120HZ display with flat bezels on the 9 and slightly curved on the pro. FHD+ display on the regular 9 while the 9 pro will pack a 1440p display.

ONEPLUS WATCH

Now this sounds weird right? well let me explain. Oneplus as we know is a company which makes flagship killer phones but from the past 1 year , oneplus has been trying to get into some different departments. For example they launched their NORD series and got into the midrange market. Also they recently oneplus band which eventually was a rebranded version of OPPO band. 

As OPPO has also launched a high end OPPO watch, we expect oneplus to also launch a new smartwatch which they might call as Oneplus watch.

ONEPLUS 9 LITE / ONEPLUS 9E

As I just said oneplus has been trying to get into different markets and as their prices for the flagships is increasing year after year, there is a small price gap of 35000 - 45000 rupees where they will probably launch a new "LITE" version of the 9 series.

Till now the specs for this smartphones are not clear but we can expect it to be powered  by the last year's flagship processor that is snapdragon 865+ or maybe the recently launched snapdragon 870 which is just a 865+ with 3% increased CPU speeds. Also it is said to borrow a lot from the Oneplus 8T and will offer all of this for a lower price.

A BIG LEAP IN THE CAMERA DEPARTMENT

The only thing which lets oneplus one step back to become a true flagship is the camera. With the oneplus 8 pro this problem was quite solved but still it's camera is not even close to the one's present on the note 20 ultra, 12 pro max.

To solve this problem, the R&D department at oneplus has been working really hard and this year we are going to see some drastic changes in the camera department. This was confirmed when Pete lau, on his weibo page posted that this year we will see a really good flagship grade camera module on Oneplus 9 series.

CONCLUSION

This is what we expect oneplus to unveil in their upcoming event which we anticipate to be held in april or may. Also these all are rumors and there can be changes in actual product.

HERE'S YOUR FIRST LOOK AT THE UPCOMING ONEPLUS 9 !!!

We all know Oneplus is an independent brand and it works on it's own but actually most of the Chinese vendors like Oneplus , Vivo , Realme ,  Oppo are sub-brand of a bigger company called BBK electronics.

As they are all related to each other, they share their resources to save the R&D which eventually brings the cost of the device down. 

Oppo recently launched their new phone which is the Oppo Reno 5 pro in India and probably oneplus is going to take the design from oppo and use it for their new 9 series. 

 

Before talking about Oneplus, let's first have a look at Oppo reno 5 pro.

OPPO RENO 5 PRO

Oppo after the failure of their R series came up with this new Reno series which is the best oppo can offer and the reno 5 pro is no different. The phone comes with a modern glass sandwich design with frosted glass at the back. The phone is really thin and light weighing just over 170g.

The front of the phone sports a edge to edge single hole punch 6.55" super amoled display with a resolution of FHD+ and the display also sports high refresh rate upto 90HZ. The display quality looks good and the viewing angles are excellent.

Under the hood, Reno 5 pro runs on mediatek's dimensity 1000+ processor which paired with color os 11 based on android 11 will run everything you throw at it smoothly. 

The back of the phone holds a quad camera set up which consists of  a 64MP main camera paired with a 8MP ultrawide and two 2 MP for macro and depth. The front single hole punch holds a 32MP selfie shooter.

Coming to the security front, as the phone sports an amoled display, it also has an indisplay fingerprint scanner which is fast and accurate.

The phone is priced at the price of rupees 36000 and it is one of the best offering in this price range if not the best. 

I think Oppo has priced this phone really well and the new 1000+ processor has a performance equivalent to 855+. Also it has a decent 4350MaH battery with a 65W charger in the box. 

If you are looking for a good camera phone with decent performance then this is the best device to go for but if software is the main priority then maybe a oneplus 8 is going to be a faster and cleaner device.

ABOUT THE UPCOMING ONEPLUS 9

As we all know oneplus and oppo have been sharing parts with each other for quite a while now, like the design of Oneplus 6T was taken from the Oppo R17 pro and many more so we can say that oneplus 9 will take some design elements from oppo reno 5 pro (most probably the display design).

The Oneplus 9 series will be unveiled in the next 2 months so lets see how Oneplus will take on the big players in the market.

 

CONCLUSION

The Oppo reno 5 pro is a great device for the price and is an easy recommendation to anyone and more importantly it gave us a first glimpse at the upcoming oneplus 9 .
