The post OnePlus 9R Specs and Images listed on Amazon India ahead of launch appeared first on Gizmochina.

It’s a no-brainer that the OnePlus 9 series is arriving on March 23 globally and March 24 in China. The company has so far been promoting the OnePlus 9, 9 Pro devices but never spoke about the rumored 9R. That ends today as OnePlus CEO Pete Lau has confirmed it himself.

In an exclusive interview with News18, Pete Lau says that the company is excited to bring the OnePlus 9R. The device will be targeted for a flagship experience at an affordable price.

If we recall, an older Android Central report said that the company is planning to bring a third device with an older Snapdragon 865 chipset. This was first believed to be the OnePlus 9 Lite only to be revealed as the OnePlus 9R later.

Coming back, Pete says that both the OnePlus 9R and OnePlus Watch will launch alongside the OnePlus 9, 9 Pro on March 23. He goes on to say further that the device will focus more on “smooth scrolling, immersive gaming controls and a superior viewing experience”.

To aid the above parameters, the device will also have the technology and class-leading industrial design so that the company can give a balanced all-around smartphone as per Pete. Talking about 5G, he says the network provides improved speed, better latency for cloud gaming.

There were vague rumors about the third device launching with watered-down specs like Snapdragon 690 5G chipset but looking at Pete Lau’s interview we feel that the device will be closer to the OnePlus 9, 9 Pro in performance, user experience, 5G but sell at a lower price.

Apart from India, we can also expect OnePlus to bring the 9R to countries like China.

The post OnePlus 9R confirmed to launch in India on March 23, will provide flagship experience at affordable price appeared first on Gizmochina.

The OnePlus 9 series is said to debut in multiple countries on March 23 at 10:00 AM ET and March 24 at 2 PM Beijing Time in China. The launch event will include four products – OnePlus 9, OnePlus 9 Pro, OnePlus 9R(for India), and the OnePlus Watch. Let’s take a look at the expected specs, features, and prices of the OnePlus 9 devices ahead of launch.

OnePlus 9 series- What’s New?

Unlike the past, OnePlus has built quite the hype for the OnePlus 9 series cameras with the announcement of the Hasselblad partnership. The company will jointly develop natural color calibration with the Swedish camera maker. This partnership will continue for the next three-years as OnePlus invests about $150 million in its R&D labs situated around the world.

Talking about the design, high-quality renders show a revamped camera layout. We see the Hasselblad branding on both the models suggesting that the above-mentioned software tech could be available for both.

Either way, the camera layout gets a more refined finish as compared to the OnePlus 8T. Specifically, it looks like OnePlus has taken inspiration from the OPPO Reno series of smartphones.

However, unlike OPPO, the camera lenses inside are stacked in varying sizes. The OnePlus 9 Pro has quad-cameras while the non-Pro is said to stick with the triple-camera setup. The devices will launch in the following colors:

• OnePlus 9
  • Colors- Arctic Sky, Astral Black, Winter Mist.

• OnePlus 9 Pro
  • Colors- Stellar Black(sandstone-like finish), Forest Green, and Morning Mist(Silver)[2]*

As for the OnePlus 9R, the third device would be a first in the series [5](and launch in countries like India) as the OnePlus flagship lineup traditionally featured a standard and a Pro variant (if we exclude the special editions). The device is expected to feature a Snapdragon 870 chipset and provide a flagship experience at a more affordable price.

Not just the press renders, the static and live wallpapers of the devices have also been leaked. As you can see in the renders above, the wallpapers have a mix of color variants in them.

OnePlus 9 series Specifications and Features(Expected)
