One bit of misinformation: you don't have to buy a wall adapter to do wireless charging. The wall adapter that comes with the phone is used with the wireless charging base.
yes! finally someone speak about the software updates.....
What updates? 🤣
Well, I had the Oneplus 7 pro before and they somehow had managed 2 times to deliver the updates faster than Google did. I definately can't complain about the Updates. Sure as soon as there was the 8 Series the update frequenzy dropped and after nealy 2 years you got to know that they don't really care about you anymore. But it haden't been advertised that there will be long term update support. But look at the 5 Series. Even this series of phones did receive Android 10.
2 years of software update for a thousand dollar phone ??? that's just not acceptable.
ATleats its not 1 year on ONLY Security Update and 4 months of software Update :v
@@extreme123dz Who does that?
It sounds like a thing apple would do. But fr??
@@gekgamerdk Apple does 5 years of security updates
@@gekgamerdk except apple provides 5-6 years of major software updates lol
Got my oneplus 9 pro and boy oh boy this thing is a beast... the money I spent on it is totally worth it in my eyes.... very satisfied.
should i get it?
Still feel that way?
hey hello!! m planning to buy this phone 9pro but i am hearing that there are huge problems regarding over heating and battery draining quickly.m scared now. can u please tell about it? would u suggest this phone?
@@karthiknaidu7271 i was going for the 9 aswell but it seems that users are having serveral issues... This week I' m going for the s21 instead
@@mdhairul10 I would say get the 7 pro way cheaper. Same phone.
No you don't. You buy the wireless charging stand and use your phones charger (cable + wall adapter) with it.
The wireless charging stand comes with its own cable too.
I currently have the OnePlus 6T and plan on upgrading to the 9 pro.
Did anyone ask
@@oheclipse2646 Anyone ask you for your opinion?
I got the 6 and pre-ordered mine yesterday.
I still have my 5T ... Y'all are tempting me loool. I want the 9 pro but I still feel like my 5T is great. Sigh. Only downside on the 5T is the camera.. which isn't terrible anyways. I'ma keep watching videos. Gotta make up my mind soon because if I buy the 9 pro I wanna take advantage of the pre order and get the free wireless charger.
I have 5T 😅
Still using the my op 7 pro, upgraded to 8 pro for a couple of months, then went back to 7 pro. For me it is the most complete android phone
My OnePlus 7 Pro got stolen ...
@@zaynumar0 very sad😭
I'm also writing this on a 7 Pro... Why do I feel like this COMPLETELY FULL display with NO NOTCH OR HOLE PUNCH is MORE advance than all these other tumor spot screens lol
@@DreamsOfLegend I'm still on my 7pro and like the camera that pops up since the screen is blemish free. But wonder if I should upgrade, tmobile is giving 365 off with a trade in
@@ripvanwinkle3432 me to... I'm wondering that same exact thing.. but I also wonder if NEXT years 10 pro will be the return of the blemish free screen... If I jump the gun I might regret it
Great review as such. Here in UK, you get the wireless charger free with the mobile. This is probably just for the pre-order to push the sales, but it does make that expense much more easier to swallow !
Damn you get the charger free?
@@blulemon7481 Yes.. You can choise from either the Wireless Charger or Earbuds.. I chose the charger. My mobile gets delivered tomorrow 30th March.
@@dafyddr8678 slick deal!
Upgrading to oneplus 9 pro from galaxy j7nxt🤷♂️. I am excited
That's one giant leap
Still using OnePlus 3T and happy with it 🙄
Android Police is now my fave android phone tech channel.
The simplistic and clean cinematography and editing is just so good for the eyes.
Sorry for my bad english
The PetaPixel review of the OP9Pro, which concentrates more on the camera, seems to indicate much better results from the camera than AP implies. Also, the written review comes off as if it was written by someone who isn't terribly familiar with photography
exactly..I use a full frame camera and there's nothing wrong with One Plus cameras..it's BS
i was gonna upgrading from my 7 pro but as long as they dont have indisplay-cameras i'm not going to...🤷♀️ i'm spoiled of that seemless front
it Gets old. i still Have my 7 pro as well, but since the 9 pro was a dissapointment i ended up getting the 8 pro .
I'll also stick with my OP 7T Pro until the next one. That wireless charging seems so tempting tho.
indisplay cameras are shit, only the sliding-out camera is the good option, but no water-resistance sucks
i have 7 pro i thought upgrade but now i notice no need.
@@chel8343 there is water resistance though. and also why the hell are you dunking your phone underwater?
for me the battery life is very important so I'll skip it, unfortunately, I really like their software
I've been oneplus user for a few years. From 8 pro i switched to Samsung S21 Ultra. Deal breaker for me were cameras.
What is the status of heating issue of 888 processors? Is it a hardware or software issue? Should we avoid 888 processors for the heating issue?
Yes
can you use the swipe up gesture to open the menu with the curved screen?
yeah it works a treat
so is xiaomi mui 12.5 better or best android os ??
I have the Oneplus 5 and it still running very well !!
The Oneplus 9 (and 9 pro) have generic cheap design, even the Oneplus 7 pro from two years ago looks more premium.
For those who own Oneplus phones, you know that they have become very bad at handling updates. The Oneplus 5 was left with a buggy build, the Oneplus 7 series just got Android 11 few days ago, the Oneplus 6 series have yet to get the Android 11.
The camera hype was too much, they have a long way to go.
I still got no reason to upgrade to another Oneplus device. I will keep mine for another year, maybe i will give them a chance but I'm considering the Pixel or iphones as well
Also on a OP5. OP6 won´t get A11 irrc.
If Google would sell their devices in my country, I would have bought a 4a 5G.
no wallpapers link..🤔🤔
Can you tell me where the cast function is? it is not on the swipe down menu. My wife has an iphone hand she doesn't have any of the pain I have with this phone
My OnePlus 9 pro doesn't have the option to changed display resolution to fhd or qhd. What should I do?
was literally about to purchase this read the review and watched a few videos... no Sd card slot so out of the cart it went
DO NOT PURCHASE. GET AN S21. I would rather go back to my S7 than continue on with this painful crap phone
Zach your b roll is always incredible
Sorry I'm just now seeing this 😅 Thanks so much Jacklyn!
Thx
One Plus laid the smackdown on Apple and Samsung YEARS ago,and there's a TON of FACTS to back that up.I paid $780 dollars for my Samsung Note 3,with a IR Blaster,removable battery,Headphone jack,charger,cable,,and it STILL works.This is my third One Plus phone,and they have KILLED Samsung/Apple with value per dollar.OP was smashing Samsung with refresh rates,years before Samsung even caught up,and the battery charging alone,tossed them in the grave.Next,i dont really care about camera phones but mine is fine,and I have a full frame professional camera,so all those opinions are subjective,and about a camera on devices that fit in our pockets.Now,even if OP 9pro is $1000,you do get a damn charger,and the Samsung batteries are not that much better,if at all. It kills me when anyone makes claims but doesnt learn a device and how to make it work for them,before judging it.Next,I dont know what kind of math some people learned,but to pay $1200-1400+ for a Samsung phone with LESS vital features,than it's $780 Note 3 equivalent,and get NO charger,is not exactly mathematically sound.If anything,flagship Samsungs should have ALL of the features from before PLUS MORE AND a damn charger in the box.One Plus,you know if you gave us IR Blaster and headphones jack,removeable batteries,you would be undisputed...
What are the differences between note and non-note versions?
What note?
Using OnePlus 6 , can't wait for a upgrade. Sticking with OnePlus.
Same pal 6 is still decent feel like it would be fine if it weren't for the battery death
After 4 years with OnePlus 6 (best phone I ever had !! 1+6 was a beast) but is time to say goodbye.. I just got the OnePlus 9 pro.!! So excited 🔥
5:51 what is the source of wallpaper?
Unsplash
OP9P is only missing ... 4.5 things
1. A bigger battery
2. Gorilla Glass Victus
3. Better front facing camera
4. 1500 nits display
4.5. Fingerprint scanner needs to be placed slightly higher, like on 8 Pro
so if you buy the wireless charger, you wont even be able to use it ?
you seriousle have to buy the cable seperately ???
Is this phone have over heating issues ?
6:07 ? Why don't you use the one included in the box? Like why should I buy a 2nd one when Ican easily unplug the phone and plug the wireless stand in? I took the preorder and got the wireless stand with a Oneplus cable and just 1 Wall adapter. And this is more than enough!
Mi 11 Ultra is the phone of the year. If i didnt have my lovely Lg V60 id be getting that phone then or the s21 ultra. One plus 9 pro is right there... 525 ppi i think for the screen? And they started the higher refresh screen. Still a good option but Mi 11 ultra boyz
I was thinking of getting the Pro as a upgrade from galaxy 8 but not so sure now
Get Samsung only trust me you won't regret it !! If your in us it's a no brainer. Their after sales service is shit!! M a long term 1 + owner currently on the 8pro
I really dreamed to have this phone since Oneplus 1 came out when I was a kid. Now that I bought this Oneplus Pro 9 Pro, I was really disappointed on the updates. I thought they really listening to the users. Sad to know that most company phones forums are all the same.
i really don't know that there was a one plus pro in 2009
I am really annoyed how in Europe the only phone brands using the flagship qualcomm processors are Xiaomi and Oneplus.
I'm currently 13 withouta personal phone (as of me writing this comment), my Dad has an S21 Ultra, I hope the OP 9 Pro would get cheaper on 2023 so I could have a fast phone as my first one
bruh
Got to admit going from the Xiaomi mi 10t pro to the OnePlus 9 Pro I don't see much of a difference apart from better cameras on the OnePlus also the OnePlus is alot lighter the mi 10t pro but the battery on the Xiaomi is crazy good maybe that's why I think the battery on my OnePlus 9 Pro is very mediocre at best but the warp charge is insane so more than makes up for it. Just goes to show that mid range phones are catching up fast to the so called flagships
What is the wallpaper at 2:11?
Bro some one please explain how he got mario on his phone?
Ill wait a few months time till the 8gb RAM version drops to round €650 and then imma cop it
Wallpaper links ?
whats sound speakers model?
Using OnePlus 7T
Please do a 'Making It Mine' video for the OnePlus 9 Pro! This smartphone really has promise and I think that with the partnership costs that OnePlus splurged for this iteration of their phone, they would do the best they can to really make the most out of it.
Great job, man! God bless.
Why did you guys abandoned the android police instagram?
Eyeing this up Now 589 on Amazon deal of the day.
So what Mario game is being played? Because the only Mario game I know on mobile is Super Mario Run, and it doesn't look like he's playing that..
Yo Zach! 🔥👍🏻👌🏻
#Oneplus stop #TechDiscrimination with Indian users by removing features that are available to US users
When you live in the U.S.: go for the ultra. When you live in europe: it depends.. The ultra is still more expensive, and you only get the phone for that price, not a single extra. We're also stuck with exynos. if charging speeds are important for you and you want free accessories, go for the 1+
Same problem here in India, Exynos for Samsung phones. But the price difference is huge… About €817/$964 for the 9Pro 256GB and €1237/$1460 for S21U 256GB (incl taxes) and when I include charger cost and a basic case cost the price difference increases a lot!
@@bhatts18 that's an even bigger difference!
I'll buy it cuz the black is sexy af
@@blulemon7481 Which black? S21U or the 9 Pro? I checked out the black in the OnePlus store today and its awesome! It has a texture and feel something similar to a satin suit lapel...
@@bhatts18 ultra looks more dope also I would spend extra and get the ultra even if it's exynos. 1+ has peaked out with the 7t . I own the 8pro so m done with 1+. Samsung might cost a little more but trust me their after sales service is soo good I mean apple level good on the Android side compared to 1+ Its total shit alot of promises no fulfilment. 8pro is a dope phone but I had to replace my handset 4 times just to get a decent one without screen issues it was a horror experience. I never had that issue when I bought the S10 + . 1+ isn't what it used to be it's just on the money milking trip train especially in India.
3:47 how do you get that mario game? And which one is it?
It looks like an emulator. Im not sure which one though
He using Dolphin emulator and it's Mario Kart Wii
the fingerprint location... can that be changed via a future software update? i mean physically if that's where the sensor is located then it won't be but here's hoping someone will have some insight on this, cuz that location is more annoying than it looks
There is a physical sensor under the screen, I don't believe it can be moved via a software update
i have mi9 (the fp scanner is located almost on the same place), and ofc i had to get used to that location, but the face unlock usually works faster than any underscreen scanner, so thats a minor problem
It's a camera under the screen.
Oxygen OS 11 is a deal-breaker. I got my 7T Pro downgraded to 10. It's gonna be my last 1+ device.
i toh already switched to iphone
Why? I cant wait for something new and refreshing on my 7 pro, but didnt yet switch to oos11. Have been contemplatinf the switch back to iphone main reason being camera
@@irig0ld I switched to oos11 on my oneplus 7 a few days ago, there's a ton of aesthetic changes which are cool, but sadly other than that I've found little benefit. There's even a few bugs with it (most noticably for me is the brightness slider that's laggy for example). I'd recommend waiting to update until they've fixed those.
@@henri28 thanks henry! are you planning to stay with the oneplus 7?
@@irig0ld of course, I haven't noticed a drop in performance or battery life since I bought it almost two years ago. It's still my favorite phone to date. I don't know if my next phone will be a Oneplus though. Their main selling point for me has always been their value and they've gotten really expensive lately.
Lockscreen wallpaper!
Still on my 3T and happy
Same here! 🤜🤛
Same here!!!
Why the heck ain't anyone talking about the new Chrome 89 update !? It's a a huge jump in browsing!
People use Chrome?
@@cj7073 normal people at least use chromium-based browsers
You 2nd reason on battery isn't that good. Tell us how many hours you got. At peak brightness? Maxed out? What were you doing? Daily use? Gaming all day?....????
And please compared to the huawei p30 pro for me ;)
Complaining about fingerprint location meanwhile back in the day when we have home buttons there was no problem
What was the game played in this video
Thank you for this review, it was really helpful - made be leave out OnePlus (again) in my consideration for a new phone to buy. Had the first they made, stood without battery within half an hour, and it seems that it isn't fixed yet after all these years...yeah, you better need a fast charging :-/
Emulator please?
This channel is gold mine
It is amazing to me that I have not yet seen a single review talk about it being single SIM only.
Because its dual sim
@@irig0ld not in the USA. I haven't seen anywhere that shows dual SIM. If you can direct me to a dual SIM OP 9, I would appreciate it...
@@derbagger22 I'm from europe so might be different here, but try this and youll know for sure:
On the official (us) website go to buy op9pro then go to specs and scroll down. Under ports section it says the following here in EU:
USB 3.1 GEN1
Type-C
Support standard Type-C earphones
Dual nano-SIM
So check if it says that for sim in the US and I guess you will know?
@@irig0ld The US site shows Single-SIM only.
@@derbagger22 Unfortunate.. perhaps you can get your hands on an unlocked eu version if that even works over there. I dont know the US rules when it comes to that
Will there be a OnePlus 9T? And if there is should I wait for that instead? 🤔
Probably, they do some kind of T variant every year
So I got the 12/256 Pro model for $616 from Amazon. Is it worth it at that price or is the S21 still a better value @$900 dollars? Any help is appreciated
I got s21 ultra it gets hot in summer i mean when the weather is above like 30c or higher the phone always hit and it really anoying gor for op9 or op9pro for sure
I think that oneplus has a 3 years os updates if someone knows for sure please let me know because I am looking forward to buy oneplus phones in the future
Android 11, A12 ed il terzo anno con patch sicurezza, proprio come Samsung
No OP hasn´t said anything in this regard, unfortunately.
For everyone complaining about the cameras of the 9 Pro, Just know that the OnePlus has 12 bit raw support and the Hassleblad color science is only available in the Pro mode for now. And like if you are into photography and like editing your images, Why not use pro mode. Like if I have a phone with 12 bit raw support then I wouldn't even touch the Auto mode unless I dont have time to fine tune my images. And if you are unable to utilize Pro mode properly then you're prolly not a big photography enthusiast and can use the color filters in the camera app to get by.
If I got anything here wrong or factually incorrect please notify me, I will reply within an hour or two🙂😊
Two things that I desperately miss in smartphones:
1. Fingerprint scanner on the back (still faster, less "risky", and more ergonomical than today's solution)
2. Headphone jack!
This...... I am jealous of rear fingerprint sensors... Even apples face id is better than this bullshit in display scanners
I saw reviews in amazon for one plus 9 pro it is 3/5....worst review's from the pple for one plus 9 pro 12gb variant...is it true??? 8gb and 12 gb varies by performance please reply
yes
@@MadanKhadka so what do u say? We don't want to buy one plus 9 pro? Or we can buy ?
@@id4142253198 if you want a smoother UI and incredibly fast charging times, go with the OnePlus 9 Pro,
but if you want longer battery life, overall camera versatility, and a more premium design then the Galaxy S21 Ultra is the clear choice to go with.
@@MadanKhadka I think instead of one plus 9 or 9r,we can buy 8t... what's your thought on this?
One plus is in kind of deep trouble
Not spending anywhere near $1k for a phone.
Bit harsh saying you need to buy a wall adapter for the wireless charger when you can use the one included in the phone box. Also, in the UK I gor the 9 pro and the wireless charger on pre order deal for 829.... best phone on the market for the price. Great video tho 👍
Just bought this phone for $530 for my mom. She is rly not into specs and whatever, but she likes it. Never saw her this happy. Phone is great, but I think it's not worth of $1000
0:40 - IP68?! I haven't heard anything about that spec and can't find it on the official website. Where is that coming from?
The T-Mobile version says that, and there's no difference between the phones, only that t-mobile sells it. So we're able to assume it has IP68
@@edreyimendez7028 T-Mobile listing does NOT have IP68 in their specs. I just checked that.
@@MaksimLitvinenko it's common knowledge that op9 pro is ip68

Yes Zack!
Guys. Is it worth it to buy now the 8 pro?
Depends what you are looking for in a phone.
What I understand from the reviews, the cameras are better (especially the ultra wide where as the regular wide is a little better). The 8 Pro "only" has 30W charging whereas the 8T is newer and already has 65W charging.
@@FJsvc battery and camera’s. But the 8T seems to have horrible image quality in my opinion - which also depends on the reviews. So maybe I go with the nord. but if I compare to some Xiaomi models. I get more on paper for Xiaomi and so on :/
@@redds7 I feel you. I'm also looking for a worthy replacement for my ageing Huawei P30 Pro with focus on Battery and Camera. Haven't found the perfect solution yet either. Will also be waiting for other releases this year to come.
The camera of the 8 Pro was decent but not perfect either I think... (To my knowledge, the regular OP9 has the sensor of last year's 8 Pro). Maybe this is also an option bc the regular OP9 is supposed to have better battery than the OP9 Pro.
Very difficult after all 🙂
@@FJsvc thanks. Yes that’s the problem. Wait or buy. I’m currently on iPhone 7+ with poor battery but pictures are still great. I am more a fan of wide pictures than optical zoom. But good to have ois. There is a ton of phones but the struggle is there comparing android versions. Comparing his oxygen to colorOS.
Thx
Watching with my OnePlus 9 pro! I love it!
me too lul
Curved edges??? I wish they'd stop doing that
Give me back cover
Was that a OnePlus watch your wearing?
Watching from my Mi 11. :)
Maybe they can move finger scanner with a future update.
Of course impossible. You have a sensor physically installed at the current place.
@@szx8694 it was sarcasm...lol. because everything is going to improved with a future update its doesn't come as a tested and finished product. Always a rush job by one plus.
@@supersurfer1 It's kinda like that on Samsung phones too😂 Especially the cameras, I have an S20+ and it got about 4-5 dedicated camera updates to help autofocus and colours of the shot.
Very nice OnePlus 9 pro
Who's gonna root this say I
Oneplus is classy in user interface like iPhone. It will takes years to develop. But samsung is boring and inconsistent
$600 at the end of 2021 for One+. Crummy updates suck. Oppo Find X2 Pro sits at Android 10 with no date for 11. But X4 Pro is supposed to come out with Android 12? Insulting.
Oh, all 888/+ are running hot and throttle. $200 off right there. Police: more patrols.
OnePlus 9 Pro is probably the best thing to upgrade to, for me. Anything to get rid of the Exynos 990 in my Samsung Galaxy S20 5G.
S21 ultra says hi.
Exynos 🤮
Lol I love it. The one highlight on the camera... well... it's got accurate.... colors....
That image processing tho... 🤣
Crushed shadows, bad dynamic range...
Topping it all off with the fingerprint scanner location... the lack of ergonomics.... man... OnePlus is driving down a hill LG style.
what was the game and emulator playing
Really need to know!
@@konte641 it's annoying when these tech channels posted videos with no link in the description about what's being played
That was new super mario bros wii, probably the dolphin emulator
To be honest, I really think Oneplus has been slacking with the software updates. Maybe the departure of Carl Pei have something to do with this? I'm not sure.
Plus the I've expected something more from the Hassleblad collaboration actually, almost all TH-cam reviewer left unimpressed with the Oneplus 9 series camera results.
Simply dissapointed.
65w charge charges it super quick so what if it runs out of battery quick
It won't, just like the previous phones . My OnePlus X, oneplus 5, oneplus 6t and 7 pro still have great battery life
So disappointed with the Cameras on this phone, reviews have been negative. I'm going to hold on to my 7T Mclaren edition for another year.😳
hype was the real cause.
Reviews are negative, because the photos are not as oversaturated as on Samsung or iPhone. 🤦🏻♂️
@@BojanTomic No because it isn´t as good as Samsung or Apple but costs the same.
Dick move from oneplus on that last point about the wireless charging. How are you not going to give us the charging brick?
MY OPİNİON BATTERY MİN MUST BE 5000 AND CERAMİC , FRONT CAMERA DİSSAPOİNTED FOR ME MİN 4K 60 FPS MUST BE SOUND QUALİTY 24 BİT 192 HZ NOT ENOUGH SO MUCH BETTER
WHY ARE YOU YELLING SO HARD? MY EARS GOT ALMOST BROKEN.
With the sales that Samsung offers, s21 ultra comes even cheaper than one plus 9 pro. And for the same price going with s21 ultra is a no brainer. If this phone was priced around 750 usd then the odds would have changed dramatically.
Yep, the S21 Ultra is discounted almost everywhere and it's actually cheaper than the 9 Pro *and* you're getting a better camera. The only nice feature that OnePlus has, is faster charging.
Sorry, I can't see paying a g-whizz for a one plus phone. Besides it's a top3 📸? The 🍎 max & Ultra are better! But I must say, the charging is great?
Well, you get a 65-watt wall adapter and a cable in the box. you do not have to buy them separately.
NEVER AGAIN ONEPLUS! I've got 9 pro and im not happy with it at all. Full of bugs. The storage gets filled for no reason, the "Other" folder occupies 150 gb out of 250!!!
