OnePlus 9
The OnePlus 9 is the new minimum standard for flagship-grade smartphones from the popular Chinese brand, featuring a brand-new design that embraces the glass back panel while doing away with the metal frame to save some weight. The smartphone gets some of the best components available on the market today, including a reliable Snapdragon processor, lots of RAM and Storage, and a special camera array that has been developed in collaboration with Hasselblad so that you can enjoy their superior colour science and imaging technologies. The only thing average about the smartphone is the battery size, which could have been larger to accommodate the high-resolution display.
