About OnePlus 9 Pro

The OnePlus 9 Pro is the newest flagship device from OnePlus. It’s the successor of the OnePlus 8 Pro. And this device is camera-centric as the company partnered with Hasselblad to fine-tune the colors of photos. While OnePlus phones are getting better each year, their prices are also cutting deep into pockets. They use to be the flagship killers but now they’ve turned into expensive flagships themselves.

Growth is a good thing but also come at a cost. With that aside, let’s focus on some of the intriguing specifications of the OnePlus 9 Pro with emphasis on its camera.

Chipset, CPU, and GPU

Let’s kick things off with the chipset of the device. OnePlus 9 Pro comes with Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset built on a 5nm process. It has an Octa-Core processor clocked at 2.84GHz and uses Adreno 660 GPU.

This chipset is arguably the best Android chipset in the market (as at the time of writing this content). Samsung and Xiaomi also used the same chipset in the Galaxy S21 Ultra and Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra (two flagship devices from the companies). So, if you are looking for a smooth gaming experience and fast processing, the OnePlus 9 Pro got you covered.

Cameras

OnePlus 9 Pro comes with a quad rear camera with a 48MP main camera, 8 MP telephoto, 50MP Ultrawide, and a 2MP depth sensor. Yes, it’s true that the sensors of the cameras are not the biggest but they come with nice features.

For example, the 48MP comes with omnidirectional PDAF, Laser AF, and OIS and can record 8K video. While the 8MP telephoto comes with 3x optical zoom and also has OIS. Then there is the Hasselblad Color Calibration to help switch things up with natural colors.

Although the 16MP selfie camera can only record 1080P video and it also has gyro-EIS. Using the back and front cameras will give you an incredible camera experience. You don’t have to be a pro to turn on these features as most are turned on by default.

Display

The display type of the OnePlus 9 Pro is LTPO Fluid2 AMOLED, with 1B colors, 120Hz, HDR10+, 1300 nits (peak). Its display size is 6.7-inches and the phone is both water and dust-resistant. There is also a corning gorilla glass 5 protecting the display. With the 1300 nits of peak brightness, you can use this phone under the sun without having to strain your eyes.

Note that the 120Hz refresh rate is not adaptive which means you have to be mindful of your battery life if you want to rock steady 120Hz. Also, the display is slightly curved to the edge, so if you are more into flat displays you might want to look somewhere else.

RAM, Storage, and Battery

OnePlus 9 Pro comes with a minimum of 8GB RAM and a maximum of 12GB RAM. Its internal storage has a minimum of 128GB and a maximum of 256GB. There is no space for storage expansion via a microSD card.

The battery capacity is non-removable 4500mAh with a 65W fast charge that can charge the phone from 0-100% in 29 minutes. You also get to enjoy a 50W wireless fast charge.

Software and Sensors

OnePlus 9 Pro runs Android 11 out of the box along with OxygenOS 11.3.3 skin software. And the company will also be providing software updates and security patches for at least 2 years.

The following sensors are available for you; Fingerprint (under display, optical), accelerometer, gyro, proximity, compass, and color spectrum. Sadly, there is no 3.5mm jack. So, say Hello to the world of Earbuds and wire headphones. Below is a summary of the key specification of the OnePlus 9 Pro.
