So OnePlus 9 Pro is set to debut in a week's time on March 23rd and ahead of the launch, a huge news has just been revealed by none other than the CEO of OnePlus himself. Along with that, there are tons of new information about the OnePlus 9 including high-quality photos of the handset itself. First up, since flagship phones have gotten better and pricier and as a result, people are holding on to their devices much longer than in the past. So OnePlus has announced on Weibo that they are extending the warranty on the OnePlus 9. Instead of the usual 1-year warranty, they will double the time to two years of official warranty on the OnePlus 9 and 9 Pro. By the way, I'm not talking about the software support but the hardware support which means OnePlus is giving you the guarantee that the OnePlus 9 will be repaired or replaced if a defect should crop up that is determined to be the fault of the manufacturer.
The vast majority of manufacturers offer a warranty for one year from the date you purchase your smartphone. So this is actually a big deal if you ask me. Sure some regions for e. g. the European Union already have 2-year warranties for all electronics, but most of the world does not.
So this is great news for OnePlus consumers who only get a 1-year warranty as this will give them peace of mind that any hardware defects will be handled without extra costs. By the way, since the company announced this on their Weibo account, there's still some confusion whether this is only for China or for Worldwide. I guess we'll know soon enough. Also, the CEO of OnePlus has shared some beautiful photos of the OnePlus 9 Pro. It's kinda weird for a company to showcase the full handset even before the scheduled launch event.
But hey, it's OnePlus, they know how to create buzz around their handset and this is one of the tricks in their playbook. Anyway, as you already know the OnePlus 9 will offer 65W of fast charging support with charger included inside the box. But not only that the OnePlus 9 Pro will also have 50W of wireless charging support, up from 30W of its predecessor. It has a 4500mAh battery so it will take less than 50 minutes to charge it 0 to 100 with the wireless charging. With the wire, it will take only 29 minutes.
So the battery life of the OnePlus 9 Pro is not going to be an issue at all because you can just spend ten minutes filling it up by half. Also, OnePlus is showing the low-light camera samples of the handset. They are using Sony IMX789 sensor, which has been custom-designed for the phone. And even though it might not sound as thrilling as the Hasselblad partnership, it does bring some powerful potential for both stills and video that will almost certainly be more important for its camera than the Hasselblad partnership. This Sony sensor will unlock a series of features that include 12-bit raw, the ability to shoot 4K/120p video, and 'digital overlap' DOL-HDR, which is a new take on HDR image-making.
OnePlus has even shared a sample of it on Twitter. The advantage of the digital overlap HDR on the conventional HDR is that HDR ghosting is not an issue here. Something that happens with the conventional HRD sometimes for example the constant motion of a tree’s leaves as they blow in the wind can result in ghosting. In any case, I'm looking forward to seeing whether all of this can live up to that billing when it launches on March 23. Let me know what do you think down in the comments and as always I'll see you tomorrow... peace out!.
