Haha this is big hype but fizzles out in the end laugh.gif laugh.gif

Maybe wait for the actual phone to be out first for real impression? hmm.gif Seems like nowadays a lot of new phone are flops. The Samsung S21 series plagued by overheating and performance issues, The Mi11 random shutdown and overheating/ throttling processor issues. So seems like sticking back to our current phones might be a good option? icon_idea.gif

ya, waste my 1 hour time watch the launch event, been a big fan of oneplus ( owned oneplus 3t, oneplus 6t, oneplus 7 pro,now oneplus 8t)but now they really shxt up their product,guess 8t is my final oneplus device for now.

better look into samsung flagship next time, their support for software much better these day (just received android 11 for my tab s6 lite)

The high selling prices of these new models is not helping either.

Not a huge issue though. Color OS is still pretty good.
Order directly from taobao then. Around the price of S21 lol.

Ppl are being too harsh on this phone la. 😁 Of coz it won't leave up to the hype, but it is still a very good phone
*
The problem was that the expectation was too high to begin with. But I don't blame the potential buyers though. They are going to pay top dollar for the best from Oneplus and of course they would be expecting nothing but the best. Previously, we were only paying a fraction of the price for flagship features on a Oneplus phone so we didn't complain much. But its a different ball game now. I personally think Oneplus should just stick back with the tried and tested and do away with the fancy features which drives the prices up.

true bro,

too many competition at every price point, oneplus need to stick to what they good at, great software, decent price, now they messed up with 2 of their strength, at the cost of camera (not good to begin at)

vanilla 9 is build with plastic frame,i dont remember oneplus flagship even got plastic frame before(op1 to 8p), really facepalm
*
Ya man... well its a different company now. Its trying to be in the same league with the big boys in the industry now.

Xiaomi is doing pretty well I might say. They are still sticking to their roots and playing the "high specs, mid range price factor" with their products. Personally its only MIUI which is their weak link right now but I heard it has gone through some major revamp.

Since when did any manufacturers succeed in living up to their own hype though? Enthusiast appreciate the old oneplus, but sticking to it's old strategy means oneplus will never be able to sell their phone to the mainstream customers and continue to only serve a niche group of consumers. Good strategy for a new startup but obviously not good enough for a growing company.

We've seen many local food stall starting to expand their business and move to shop lot while expanding their menus and increase prices along the way, some continue to attract customers while some disappear after a while. Unfortunately that is how business grown

For the average consumers, it doesn't matter to them if the camera performs inferior to the S21 ultra. As long as it takes good picture (to average consumers) and comes stapled with a hasselblad branding and celerbities endorsing the camera marveling about how good the camera is, then it's a good camera for them. Branding means everything to the average cosumers lol

Having said that, how is the oneplus not a compelling device? Lets take the S21 Plus as comparison (similar price point)

Better screen (1hz to 120hz)
qhd Resolution
Better haptic engine (x motor compare to older z motor)
Alert slider
Much faster charging, wired and wireless
Snapdragon to exynos
Laser focus

What else? 😁😁
*
Well said bro rclxms.gif

Let me add on to your list

-Oxygen OS is very much lighter, slicker and more refined
-Less buggy
-Much lesser bloatware
-Faster updates
-Faster and more accurate on screen FP sensor
-Users can participate in a Beta community to help refine and update Oxygen OS.

from mkbhd review, it said the FP sensor on OP9P not fastest yet
yet, the FP sensor position they put too low laugh.gif

Yup... MKBHD did say it was too low. Personally I think so too. But I can say Oneplus onscreen FP sensor is one of the fastest and most accurate I have used. nod.gif Way better than Samsungs.

Might have been better if they didn’t over-stress on the Hasselblad part, hahaha... That way we all will manage our expectations better.
Not ROG 5 ah? hmm.gif

Err.. Hasselblad is the selling point.

They oversold it, haha... If the OP9 arrives here at the same price as the OP8 pro or maybe 200 more at 3899 it'll have a chance. Anything above 4k will be challenging. I’d argue the S21+ would be a safer buy even for it’s Exynos chipset.

That could be true also bro. sweat.gif

Nice. HK set is the same "international set" as MY set, not to mention it's even cheaper than MY sets.

QUOTE(ChipZ @ Mar 24 2021, 11:50 PM)
Any idea how to get OP9R?

Wait for parallel importers to start bringing them in, won't be cheap though. Better to wait for official MY set which would be soon.

QUOTE(coolkwc @ Mar 25 2021, 09:21 AM)
Is a norm for every smartphone/OTA device nowadays.
They need to rush so that won't miss the launch windows, that's why we have all these so called 'day-0' 'day-1' OTA updates. They already planned in advance and risk was known, just that they need more time for the SW department to really fully test/verify it.

OP Give Update complain, no give update also complain. Apa lagi mau? rclxub.gif rolleyes.gif laugh.gif

'faster update' is this still valid though?

For you the only factor is exynos vs snapdragon maybe lol

Updates should be coming regularly now since Op9 series is finally here already.

S21 series also can get SD version bro. Getting the Exynos version is like throwing money into the sea. laugh.gif

Got people start selling also already. International unit.
*
Those interested better check with this seller because seller never mention if theirs is China set with Color OS or international set with Oxygen Os. Oxygen rom for Op9 is not out yet so you might be "stuck" with Color OS without playstore for the time being.

lol so long ago u remembered i used Oneplus? hopefully Malaysia set wont be overpriced again.

Hahah.. I remember all the old timers who have been using Oneplus. It was a very small community because not many people knew about the brand back then. laugh.gif

Overpriced? Seems like this would most probably be inevitable. My advice is either to get imported sets or go for older models. Oneplus MY is offering discounts for the OP8 8GB at Rm2199 and OP8 Pro 8 GB at Rm2899 on 27/3 only.

Is it so hard to ask for a flat display 1440p reso phone? OnePlus always put on a curved screen on their pro version haih
*
According to the reviews, the curve on the OP9 Pro is only slight curved compared to last year's OP8 Pro. If flat screen is what you want, why not opt for the OP9 instead?

OP9 is only 1080p FHD right? looking for a non curved 1440p phone. Thought finally they will not use curved screen anymore but guess not...
*
Yes. The OP9 comes in a Full HD Plus display of 2400 x 1080 similar to the OP8T. All the flagship phones comes with curved glass nowadays, its a trend and it makes the phone look more premium. Anyway, why dont you wait for the real phone to arrive then only decide as MKBHD did mention the curve on the OP9 Pro is very slight. Maybe it would suit your taste.
