At a rather dramatic virtual event, OnePlus has finally brought the OnePlus 9RT to India. The smartphone is a successor to the OnePlus 9R and brings slightly better specifications that match the high-end OnePlus 9 series. To recall, the OnePlus 9RT was first launched in China a few months ago. Here’s a look at all the details.

The OnePlus 9RT looks a lot like the existing OnePlus 9 phones; three big camera housings placed vertically in a rectangular bump on the back panel and a punch-hole display on the front. The phone features a metal frame, much like the OnePlus 9R. It comes in subtle Hacker Black and Nano Silver color options.

The camera section has seen an upgrade too; there’s now a 50MP Sony IMX766 main camera with OIS, a 16MP ultra-wide camera, and a 2MP macro camera. The front snapper, although, follows the same old OnePlus story and stands at 16MP. There’s support for a dual-LED flash, 4K videos, slow-motion videos, Night mode, Portrait mode, Dual-view mode, and more camera features.

Additionally, the phone supports 5G, an in-display fingerprint scanner, Face Unlock, WiFi 802.11 ax, Bluetooth version 5,2, NFC, dual stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos, and more.

The OnePlus 9RT comes in two RAM+storage variants and here are the India prices:

With this, it competes with the likes of the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE 5G, the Realme GT, and even the upcoming Xiaomi 11T Pro 5G in India. It will be made available via an early access sale on January 16. People can get an instant discount of up to Rs 4,000 by using Axis or Kotak Bank cards.
