OnePlus 9 Dual Sim 5g (8GB RAM, 128GB, Arctic Sky)

Love the product. Swopping data over from old phone was simple and quick. Screen refresh rate is impressive along with resolution, very smooth.Quality of the buttons on the side feels well made and not cheap or easy to break.Options to "overclock" the device by having options to assign extra 4GB of RAM to use. Very useful for gaming, which runs so fast and smoothly!Everything else is very intuitive and really quick and easy to learn and to adapt to features that were new to me. It didn't take more than a day or so to feel fully comfortable and acquainted with the phone.All in all, too happy with this model, very different to the Samsung S series in terms of the the normal functioning or menus and navigation, but if you not locked into a brands way of doing ... MoreLove the product.

Last time I make any decision on reviews. When I purchased phone reviews were almost all positive 5 star. Now give it a few months later and looks like not only I jumped on the making a decision by reading reviews. The phone itself suck, the camera is almost seeing thru the eyes of a 140 year old senior with cataracts. Don't even bother trying to install headphones with a 3.5mm Jack ain't going to happen. The gallery portion of phone likes to magically erase photos before they are even backed up onto the cloud. Did I mention no sd slot so you can't even back up those erased photos onto the SD card before phone maliciously erases them without your permission. The wifi antenna must not have been installed on these phone because good luck getting wifi even if you are ... MoreLast time I make any decision on reviews.

Memory on this is right in line with those extinct birds called do do birds. You know the ones that walked right off a cliff because they didn't remember it was there. And finally let talk about their awkward power button configuration and location. My 4 month old granddaughter could have come up with a better location than these idiots. Just a complete disaster of an idea. I was really praying One Plus was going to be the next generation phone but unfortunately I don't see that coming down the pipe line anytime soon. Looks like I'm sending my back to T Mobile. It can be their problem now not mine. Be aware if you can

Amazing phone for amazing price in amazing quality.

Everything about this phone is very well rounded and balanced for the price. The only thing your missing out on is the super fast charging (because no charger comes wiith the phone) although those who charge overnight won't really notice, and it has pretty enough juice to get you through the day with about 6 hrs of screen on time (after a year of battery usuage) with light and heavy usage throughout the. The cameras are better than anything for the price and ultrawide is a extra treat with its high quality and low distortion as well consistent color balance. The selfie camera is the only slight weak point being more of mid range quality but well above average for this price point. The display is decently sharp and very fluid and snappy with 120 hz refresh rate. ... MoreEverything about this phone is very well rounded and balanced for the price.

Overall phone performance is really fast at everything with no lag in opening and executeing any tasks you throw at it. Gets a little hot sometimes though during gaming. Overall form factor is bigger than average and isn't really a one handed phone, but isn't too big its becomes a hindrance. The software feels clean and bloatware free, and retains stock android feel while adding some meaningful features. Haptics and biometrics are good too, with subtle feeling vibrations(Has classic oneplus alert slider too) and a fingerprint scanner/face unlock that quick to use and setup. Retains relative new feeling in excellent condition even if it was bought used. Over all great phone for the price with some flagship bells and whistles too.

Amazing phone for the price!!!

I would like to just say that I got this phone as an upgrade from my Samsung Galaxy S9. I have been always intrigued by 1+ but never felt like their phones ever really checked all the boxes for me. I always liked the design of Samsung phones but liked the camera and pure vanilla Android experience you get from a Google Pixel (R.I.P. Nexus). Then enters the OnePlus 9. And WOW! I haven't loved a phone this much since my Moto X (yes I had a custom built one-of-a-kind etched and everything Moto X, just shows you the kind of nerd you're dealing with). I'll compare my experience with some you might find on YouTube.1. Camera, I feel like this camera is the best phone camera I have had to date. Far better than my Galaxy. I don't know if there was a software update but Damn ... MoreI would like to just say that I got this phone as an upgrade from my Samsung Galaxy S9.

I'll compare my experience with some you might find on YouTube.1. Camera, I feel like this camera is the best phone camera I have had to date. Far better than my Galaxy. I don't know if there was a software update but Damn this thing rocks. All my pictures have had amazing details and the color reproduction is amazing as well.2. Soft Haptics, I don't know if this is a phone to phone thing and I do have a T-Mobile 5G model but the haptics on this thing are strong and satisfying, and don't feel cheap at all. They remind me of my PS5 controller. Especially when you find out that the phones preloaded alarms make use of the haptics as well.3. The Screen, this one I was most worried about coming from a Galaxy with a 4k screen. Do not fret however this screen is amazingly crisp, color reproduction is beautiful. There are plenty of settings to tweak it so it's most comfortable to your eyes which I love. The only down fall it's not the brightest in the game but still plenty bright! And oh my Lord how a 120hz display changes your life! Something you just have to see in person!4. Battery, I work at a hospital with almost no cellphone signal all day and I'm constantly on WiFi. My Galaxy wouldn't survive a single shift with out needing to be charged with heavy usage. This thing... I've used it like crazy all day and at this time of writing this review I'm still at 50% so for me personally that's pretty damn good.5. OS, by far the best Android experience ever. Better than Pixel's. Oxygen OS has everything you want from vanilla Android and then just this beautiful amount of extra simplicity and customization added on top.6. Sound. This category I feel like gets over looked during reviews at time. The sound quality is absolutely amazing. I don't know how to explain it. I feel like Dolby Atmos and the native intelligence of this phone just produce a better sound quality than my Galaxy. I left my settings to dynamic but switched the intelligence setting over to "Warm" and my ears are in love! Also quick side note my Galaxy used to produce this weird high end "staticy pop" when it was paired with my Fossil Sport Watch and my 2011 Hyundai Sonata at the same time and I was playing music via Bluetooth. The OnePlus 9? No interference what so ever. Pure crystal clear sound coming from my cars infinity audio system. I was so extremely overjoyed (might be a slight audiophile 😉) that this simple correction justified the cost of a new phone in my heart immediately.7. Cost, I think we'll end here. While I did get an awesome deal through T-Mobile, they gave me $365 for my Galaxy S9 (in monthly credits of course). $730 MSRP for this phone is an absolute bargain!!! I seriously can't recommend any other phone out there at this moment for this price. Once you have it in your hands it all makes sense. The phone feels way more premium than what the price tag may suggest. But that's just my opinion, thank you for taking the time to read this review and if you did I hope it helped!

Best phone for 200$. Period.

Best bang for the buck out there right now. I got a Pixel 6 Pro for 300$ and this thing is 90% of the phone the Pixel is, sure the Oneplus lacks a curved 1440p display, an amazing speaker and the breathtaking camera of the Pixel BUT the user experience is honestly better, the form factor, the design, the feel and the software (hot take, I know) makes it a better user experience than the Pixel for the average user. The only complaint I have is my device came with 3900 mAh instead of 4500 mAh battery but that is to be expected since its over 2 years old. The phone's condition is excellent, no dents, no scratches anywhere it almost looks brand new. TL;DR Best phone for 200$ nothing comes remotely close.

CAN'T HAVE A CASE ON IT BECAUSE OF POCKET MODE WHICH ISN'T A N OFF OPTION!

Garbage. There's so many issues I have with this phone since day one. The biggest issue I have is that there was an update that won't allow me to take off pocket mode. When pocket mode is on I can't have a case on my phone. Because I can't have a case on my phone, there is so much damage done to my phone that I'm going to have to buy a new one. The phone is very slippery therefore it's hard to keep it from sliding out of my pocket or from falling because of common mistakes. I've been on the phone with T-Mobile a few times four hours try to figure out how to take pocket mode off and at the end of it I was told it wasn't an option!! This is the worst one I've ever had and I won't ever buy this type of phone again! It's unfortunate that I bought this phone at full ... MoreGarbage.

Word of advice, don't listen to any store associates!

Don't ignore the bad reviews like I did.

Don't ignore the bad reviews... Seriously. Before this last update, the camera was awful, it barely ever had service where my LG G7 always did. I couldn't make phone calls or send texts more often than not, even with full WiFi or 5G. I was on the phone with my carrier constantly and they couldn't find an issue on their end no matter what tactic they would try. Then OnePlus sends this latest update. Hah. This update deleted my very important texts messages and call logs. It changed every setting and personalizations I had on it. Still dealing with the same problems as before and if all of that didn't make me angry enough, now it won't receive text messages at all most of the time. If I am using RCS, most texts do not come through. I can see I have one in the ... MoreDon't ignore the bad reviews... Seriously.

My husband has the same phone and same exact issues. So, I know for a fact it is the phone. This phone is garbage. I'm not sure how OnePlus got a name for itself, but this phone was way too expensive to deal with this type of stuff. We use our phones for important work and this is unacceptable. I shouldn't have to ask someone to please resend their text 75 times a day. This phone is pure junk. I never had any trouble with my LG phones.. Ever. Between both of these phones, we still owe $1000 on them and I honestly would rather just flush that money in the toilet than continue using this phone another minute. Do not buy if you haven't already. Please!

Incredibly Fast and Responsive Android 11 Phone.

Shockingly fast phone, Malware scan takes seconds not minutes like my old phone. Battery is good but not multi-day. Watching HD video thru wifi uses about 7% per hour drain on battery. The 65W USB C charger will just about fully charge the phone in less than 30 minutes. I've mostly been using the 15W wireless and is a lot quicker than just plugging into standard USB port. Text is crystal clear on the Amoled screen. My favorite is watching movies and tv shows which is seamless. I you use the free OnePlus switch APP by installing on new and old phone it will transfer everything on old phone to new phone. I had a couple of secure APP that I had to run setup again but noting major. So Far I'm sold on the OnePlus brand. I have only found 1 issue that I hope gets fixed. ... MoreShockingly fast phone, Malware scan takes seconds not minutes like my old phone. Battery is good but not multi-day.

Not sure who is responsible for it but some of the pre-installed APPs (Netflix Etc.) can not be removed, uninstalled or hidden. I usually remove software I don't use or like to save space and privacy.

It has some weird malfunctions!

I bought mine 4 months ago and now I am ready to write my review about the phone. Basically, I didn't have a good experience using this phone. 1-The most annoying problem I have with this phone is its autorotation! While the feature is off, the display rotates sometimes and I have to turn on the autorotate, change the display and turn it off again. It happens few times a week and it is rely on my nerve. 2- the wallpaper sometimes just vanishes and I have to restart the phone to bring it back! And this is after only four months of regular usage! 3-After 4 month It seems the battery is not performing as good as the beginning. While I use the same amount of time in a day but it losses battery faster and needs to be charged more frequently.To sum up, I am not happy ... MoreI bought mine 4 months ago and now I am ready to write my review about the phone.

Would Not Recommend

I've never owned a phone this unreliable. I have been having issues with voicemails, calls, and texts since day one, you know, the three basic requirements of a phone. Aside from that I've had plenty of minor yet annoying technical issues that seem to get worse with every update. I've been to T-Mobile and the best they can do is replace my sim card. I just got off the phone with OnePlus support and that was a bummer. When their solution to my first problem hit a dead end, they just moved on to the next one and weren't able to solve a single issue. The only advice they could give me is to do a hard reset of my phone, which I would prefer not to do and honestly I don't think that would fix the issues anyway.

And it doesn't make me feel much better when I research my issues online only to find out many other OnePlus owners are dealitwith the same issues I am, to no avail. I can't wait to get another Samsung phone. I gave it two starts instead of one because technically, it is still a "working" phone. If I wasn't trying to operate a business with this phone and didn't reply on my phone very much, then it would probably be fine.
