It’s been just five days since the launch of the OnePlus 8T and we are already staring at the leak of probably the next OnePlus device. Max J, a well-known tipster for OnePlus has posted a vague side-view of a smartphone with a codename, “Lemonade”.

 

Max J has shared the image on his Twitter account(@MaxJmb). The image has two supposed side views of a device. They are barely visible and are extremely thin. They probably represent the usual placement of buttons on either side. That said the attention is really on the background of the image. There is a big “Lemonade” written and is intentionally yellow in color.

Now, Max hasn’t really shared any other details on his tweet but has replied to one of the comments saying this it’s about the “OnePlus 9 series codename”. This pretty much sums up what we are looking at. However, this is not the only time we hear about the “Lemonade”. A month ago, an XDA member shared that OnePlus was working on a device with codenames- lemonade, lemonadet, lemonadev, and lemonadep. While we thought of this as some other OnePlus device, Max’s clarification today puts a pin on the OnePlus 9 series.

Previously, we have come across codenames like “kebab“, “Billie“, and “clover“. Of course, these are just developmental or project names and don’t hint us about design or specifications. And that is the case with the OnePlus 9 series but rest assured “Lemonade”  is now its codename if we look at the track record of Max.

OnePlus 9 series – Early guesses

Since it’s very early to be asking for the OnePlus 9 series leaks, we will just speculate on it for now. Max has mentioned it as a “series” and hence, we can at least expect a 9 and a 9 Pro here. However, he doesn’t know if the display will be flat/curved yet.

Being a flagship lineup, the OnePlus 9 series will surely have the next Snapdragon 8 series SoC(probably Snapdragon 875), AMOLED display with at least a 120Hz refresh rate, a minimum of 65W charging(or more), may have a 64MP camera sensor(long-awaited), and more. It will most likely be launched around April of 2021.
