OnePlus has created its brand name around “flagship killer” offering almost all the capabilities and features of a flagship phone at half the value or even less. Presently, flagships are generally launched at a price beyond Rs 1,00,000 and the pace has been kept by OnePlus. The latest OnePlus 9 and 9 Pro were introduced recently with the starting price of Rs. 49,999 and Rs. 64,999 respectively, keeping them true in the premium wing. Today we will discuss a OnePlus 9R 5G review.
It is unfortunate that for many buyers, the purchasing capacity has not increased quite a lot. The type of customer who felt like they were receiving a great deal when the OnePlus 5 was launched at Rs 32,000 in the middle of 2017, is not likely to see it the same way as the present generation when it is time to upgrade.
OnePlus 9R 5G Review: An Overview
The OnePlus 9R is an answer to increasing prices and a try to cater to the customer base who wish for something fresh and is okay with a few cut corners. The OnePlus 9R 5G price in India is Rs 43,999. Even though if we compare the OnePlus 9R vs OnePlus 9R Pro, they both might look like siblings, the OnePlus 9R astonishingly looks the same as that of the OnePlus 8T from the inside. There are a lot of OnePlus 9R customer reviews available on Amazon. To read the OnePlus 9R review Amazon, visit Amazon’s website.
So is OnePlus 9R 5G a good phone to consider for this year? Let us have a look at that through this OnePlus 9R 5G review.
OnePlus 9R Design
If you look at this model from a distance, this phone looks like the sibling of the OnePlus 9 and the OnePlus 9 Pro. The only factor that will allow you to distinguish this model from its former is its shape. The only missing factor here is the Hasselblad Logo, the 9R is not benefited from the high profile brand association. There is one more noticeable thing, the 9R has 4 cameras similar to that of 96 Pro whereas 9 had only 3 cameras.
Another factor that offers this model an added advantage compared to its more expensive preceders is the body is constructed with metal in place of polycarbonate. This definitely offers the 9R a more premium feel and also portrays how restating the OnePlus 8T’s design can both be a good and a bad thing. The back side and front side are made up of Corning Gorilla Glass.
There are two color choices available with this model: Carbon Black which offers a more frosted and matte texture, and Lake Blue which offers a glossy, smooth finish.
OnePlus 9R Specification
To start with the specification of this OnePlus 9R 5G review, the biggest difference between 9R and 8T is the OnePlus 9R processor. The latest model offers a Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 SoC in place of the older flagship Snapdragon 865+. If we do a close inspection of the specifications, it can be found that the minor update that operates a tiny bit quicker but also drops curiously Wi-Fi 6E compatibility is 870. This SoC is situated right below the flagship of this present year, the Snapdragon 888, and will likely provide multiple other “value flagship” phones very soon. OnePlus asserts that it has used an extended cooling system with several temperature sensors to ensure user comfort and ease of use.
OnePlus 9R Camera Review
Unlike the previous models like 9 and 9 Pro, the users with 9R do not get a Hasselblad branding, so there are not many hyped color developments. Having said that, 8T was good at capturing images. The same is expected in this case as well. The primary camera is of 48 megapixel wide-angle sensor, the macro lens is of 5 megapixels, and it also has a 2 megapixel monochrome filter camera which has limited use, as that filter will not be employed for regular use.
Verdict
After the OnePlus 9R 5G review, it can be concluded that the OnePlus 9R is a slightly hyped version of 8t, and the huge decrease in the price of this model makes it more popular in the market. Look wise it is modern and sleek. The body which is made up completely of metal offers a premium feel and the software is also quite good. So in this price range if you wish to experience OnePlus then this is a good opportunity.
