OnePlus 9 5G (UK) 8GB RAM 128GB SIM-Free Smartphone with Hasselblad Camera for Mobile - Arctic Sky - 2 Year Warranty

I don't understand why so many OnePlus haters seem to want to dis this phone! My first OnePlus was a 7Pro which I had from launch day and really loved it, awesome phone. I waited 2.5 years to upgrade to a 9Pro and really pleased with it too. The screen on the 7Pro was awesome, but the 9Pro is even better with super dark blacks and really crisp. I held off on the Android 12 upgrade until the latest C44 upgrade and I've had zero issues with that too. The phones performance is awesome, nothing stutters or lags, great screen, great camera, 65W charging is crazy quick... I don't like charging to 100% to protect the battery life and it charges so quickly most time it's at 100% before I realise, having only left it for 20 mins or so! The irony also is battery life is less of a concern because it charges so quickly, but I get 2-3 days between charges so it's not an issue for me, but I don't game or watch video on the phone so my screen on time is pretty low in comparison to those use cases. The only area of concern for me was the camera bulge but I bought lens protectors for the glass and a protector which fits around the bulge (ie flattens out the gaps between the lenses) and I'm happier now about not scratching/ damaging the lens glass. Oh, and maybe the green colour isn't the best compared to the blue of the 7Pro, but nothing a different case can't fix! OK so I did pick the 265GB version up at a great price (under £700) so maybe those who paid over £900 feel aggrieved, and maybe I've been lucky waiting as hardware / software / OS updates have been largely ironed out. For the right price it's an awesome phone IMHO. I was looking at an S21 Ultra 255GB but at almost half the price the 9Pro is no way half the phone.... All it lacks is the S21s super zoom, everything else is the same as far as I can tell... So, after just over 2 months of daily use I'm super pleased with my OnePlus 9Pro.

Ok, so you're probably wondering why it's cheap considering the specs and I'll be honest I have absolutely no idea because this phone competes with the Samsung S21 Ultra, which is 2x the price. As usual I was hesitant to buy because of a few not so good reviews, but I'm convinced they are left by people who are unable to set up a phone correctly. First of all, the phone comes as FHD+ as default, you need to change the display settings to QWHD to get that beautiful sharp display. And let me say, the display is absolutely stunning, sharp, beautiful colour production, amazingly smooth 120hz refresh rate that is immediately noticeable, and the screen also has software accelerated motion smoothing which further adds to the silky smooth video production. I purchased the 128gb 8gb version and the phone is actually extremely fast, sometimes it takes me by surprise!! Runs some more visually demanding games buttery smooth. The phone itself feels premium quality in the hand and the back is a thing of beauty, especially in the colour morning mist. The camera lenses are large and look really pleasing to the eye. Battery life is 4/5 BUT, This is a big BUT.. You have no idea how fast this phone charges. 30 mins to 100% and it's not spec sheet lies. It really does charge faster than anything I've ever witnessed! Amazing for people who use their phone a lot and wish to charge for a little bit after heavy use, 10 mins will easily charge to 30% Moving to the camera itself, if you are unfamiliar with Hassleblad whom collaborated with OnePlus to create the camera system create very high end medium format cameras. As a photographer with 20 years experience I definitely have a valid opinion of it's performance, the cameras are really great in well lit situations, with great colour reproduction, sharp images with great clarity. Low light is harder to get a sharp image but that can be corrected with a little tripod. My only gripe would probably be the shutter time, I've had phone's that are faster but as a landscape photographer this isn't a problem. The selfie camera is good and produces a bookah effect, although it's software produced, this is still not good enough to retire your DSLR! The operating system is android obviously but the oxygen OS mod that oneplus produced is by far my favorite, it's easy to use, plenty of customisation options and definitely has a one up on samsung. Overall, I'm still in shock at the price for such a phone.. have they messed up the pricing? Aha. Want my opinion? Just buy it, I'm literally over the moon with it. Hope this helped you decide. My apologies if I missed anything out.

This is Genuine UK Spec, not cheaper version. Fully recommend phone and supplier. Screen is awesome. Phone is so good, my wife wants one too!!

Overall good mobile but battery 🔋 performance very weak

Attention, La version reçue version LE2115 sans doute indienne ne supporte pas la charge sans fil... Trés déçu !!!!!

Mein oneplus 7 Pro, hatte nach jahrelangen Gebrauch jetzt leider ein Riss am Display, weswegen ein anderes hermusste. Ich selber bin eiglentlich einer der immer das neuste vom neusten und beste vom besten haben muss, überhaupt im Bereich der Elektronik bzw. bei meinem PC. Wenn es um ein Smartphone geht, bin ich relativ genügsam, da ich nicht die höchsten Anforderungen an ein neues Smartphone stelle. Es muss reaktionsschnell sein, gute Fotos schießen und kleinere Spiele flüssig darstellen und das alles macht das oneplus 9 Pro problemlos. Mit meiner Spiegelreflexkamera kann das Smartphone zwar nicht mithalten aber das erwarte ich mir auch nicht. Im Vergleich zu dem oneplus 7 Pro, ist das 9 Pro noch ein wenig stärker und die 120Hz machen sich im Vergleich zu den 90 beim 7 Pro, alleine beim scrollen bemerkbar. Einfach nur sehr flüssig und geschmeidig. Nebenbei wird das oneplus 9 Pro auf Leistung nicht so heiß wie das 7 Pro, was auch ein sehr guter positiver Effekt ist. Das Display ist gestochen scharf und bietet etwas mehr Helligkeit als das 7 Pro. Die HDR Leistung ist bei dem 9 Pro ebenfalls um einiges besser. Da viele Leute die Akkulaufzeit als den größten Kritikpunkt des 9 Pro's betrachten, war ich schon sehr gespannt wie dieser ausfällt und ich war eigentlich positiv überrascht. Der Akku hält bei minimaler Benutzung ca. 3 Tage. Bei normaler Benutzung, also hin und wieder Spielen und im Internet Surfer ca. 2 Tage und bei starker Benutzung etwas unter einen Tag. Insgesamt ist der Akkuverbrauch im Gegensatz zu meinem 7 Pro aber gleichauf, somit habe ich hier nicht wirklich etwas zu kritisieren. Das oneplus 9 Pro ist einfach nochmal ein verbessertes 7 Pro und in allen Belangen ein wenig besser. Ich wollte mir schon fast das 10 Pro oder 11 bestellen, bin aber froh das ich mir doch das 9 Pro genommen habe. Um den akutellen Preis von 300-450 Euro, ist das 9 Pro jeden Cent Wert!

Lots of options for use like hands free calling, start maps running and turn off display and it will keep going by talking to you. desent battery life.
