The OnePlus 9RT is yet to make its entry into India, although we have reason to believe that it is now closer than ever.
Tipster Mukul Sharma on Twitter today revealed that the OnePlus 9RT launch event for India is “not too far away from now” and is right around the corner. The same launch event will also be lifting the curtains on the OnePlus Buds Z2 TWS earbuds, so there’s that.

For the uninitiated, the OnePlus 9RT features a 6.62-inch AMOLED panel with a punch-hole design. It offers a Full HD+ resolution, a 20:9 aspect ratio, and a 120Hz refresh rate. The smartphone is powered by the Snapdragon 888 5G processor, LPDDR5 RAM, UFS 3.1 storage, and a 4,500mAh battery. It supports Warp Charge 65T fast charging.
The phone went on sale for the first time today in China where it managed to surpass 100 million Yuan worth of sales in just 5 minutes, thus proving its popularity and demand. If calculated at the price of 3,399 Yuan ($577), the units sold must’ve been around 30,000.
In India, the OnePlus 9RT could be priced between ₹40,000 to ₹44,000 (~$533-587), as per a new report.
As already mentioned, the OnePlus Buds Z2 will be launched alongside the phone. The earbuds are an upgrade to the Buds Z that were launched last year. They feature better audio quality, battery life, and other improvements. Specs include ANC, Bluetooth 5.2, 38-hour long battery life, and IP55 water resistance. They’re being sold in China at a price of 399 yuan (~$62).
