Earlier today, OnePlus confirmed that it will launch the OnePlus 9 series on March 23. The launch event is said to happen at 10 AM ET. However, before the launch, the company has already confirmed that the OnePlus 9 series will come with a charger inside the box.
OnePlus Founder and CEO, Pete Lau, has revealed this information via a comment on the OnePlus community forums. Last week, Pete posted a teaser hinting at the OnePlus 9 series launch and the partnership with camera giant Hasselblad. In that post, a user had commented, “New phones launch WITHOUT CHARGERS”.
To this, Pete has replied, “Don’t worry about it. We have the charger inside the box.” This info falls in line with earlier leaks and unless there’s any new tech, the devices should ship with a 65W Warp charger inside the box.
Anyway, with this, he confirms that the Chinese smartphone maker won’t join the bandwagon of companies skipping in-box chargers. The trend of not including a charger was started by Apple and now giants like Samsung, Xiaomi have started to adopt it.
OnePlus 9 series specifications
As the top-of-the-line offering, the OnePlus 9 Pro will get the best hardware, starting with a 6.7-inch QHD+ display clocked at 120Hz. It will run a Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 5G SoC along with 8GB of RAM. Expandable storage seems unlikely at this point. We already know that the OnePlus 9 Pro will come with four rear cameras and Hasselblad branding featuring a 48MP main camera, a 64MP ultra-wide-angle lens, a regular telephoto lens that offers 3.3x optical zoom, and a depth sensor. All of this will be powered by a 4,500mAh battery.
OnePlus 9 will serve as an incremental upgrade over the OnePlus 8T with its 6.55-inch FHD+ 120Hz display. Its choice of SoC, memory and storage should be the same as the Pro variant. Its camera array will be scaled down too, but its battery capacity is likely to be 4,500mAh.
The entry-level, the OnePlus 9E/ OnePlus 9R is essentially an OnePlus Nord refresh with its Qualcomm Snapdragon 690 SoC, 6.5-inch 90Hz FHD+ screen, 8GB RAM, and 128GB storage. Its camera and battery specs are unknown at this point.
