OnePlus 9 Review | Trusted Reviews

The OnePlus 9 is the latest flagship smartphone from the Chinese tech upstart but how does it compare to the crowded field?

Well calibrated screen that’s perfect for gamers and movie fans ;Solid camera with an advanced pro mode for tinkerers ;Outstanding, future proof performance

Lack of variable refresh rate means the screen eats up battery in its highest setting ;Camera’s image processing can be a little heavy handed

OnePlus 9 review

The OnePlus 9 addresses the brand's photography shortcomings, with camera smarts courtesy of Sony and Hasselblad.

Great specs for the cost Good camera Fast battery recharging

No telephoto camera No expandable storage Lack of flagship-material polish

The OnePlus 9 comes with a fix for the most glaring flaw of prior OnePlus flagships: courtesy of a partnership with Hasselblad, the cameras offer better color correction, and both regular and ultra-wide photos look great. The lack of a telephoto lens...

OnePlus 9 review

A smaller sibling of some serious stature

Good for gaming ; Detailed picture performance ; Decent built-in speakers

Screen could be subtler ; Flat audio performance

Flagship features and a big, clear screen make this mid-priced mobile a good option for your pocket

OnePlus 9 review: A flagship in disguise

Adding more capable hardware and improving the cameras has come at the cost of build materials for the OnePlus 9, but there's more to this story.

Speedy performance ; Really fast wired charging ; Wireless charging (finally!) ; Upgraded cameras are good ; Vibrant and fluid display

Plastic frame and chunky build ; Wireless charging maxes out at 15W ; No official water- or dust-resistance rating

The design may not have wowed us that much, but OnePlus knows its users are all about getting the best performance out of every area of its phones. So if cutting corners and adding in a plastic frame means being able to stick two flagship cameras on...

OnePlus 9 Review

The OnePlus 9 offers super specifications even if the brand no longer boasts unbeatable value for money. But how does it perform day-to-day?

— Great screen, solid camera, excellent performance

— Battery can drain quickly, no IP rating, still room for improvement with the camera

The OnePlus 9 is a very good all-rounder, and should especially appeal to gaming fans due to its powerful processor and brilliant screen. OnePlus has stayed true to its signature “light touch” user interface, and the camera system has been notably...

OnePlus 9 review

The OnePlus 9 is a powerful phone at a reasonable price but design changes and cameras flaws, despite Hasselblad's help, might make you think twice.

Fantastic screen ; Powerful components ; Super fast charging ; Oxygen OS

Colour options limited by specs ; No IP rating ; Chunky with divisive finish ; Camera issues

The OnePlus 9 is a powerful phone at a reasonable price with a stunning screen. However, it's hampered by a selection of issues that are no longer forgivable.
