Alex, 25 Mar 2021Where in the world S21 price is $699!? It's $799, so it's not any cheaper than OP9. ... moreAt the moment the S21+ is going for $799 on the official stores but you can find it at a cheaper price, like 750-760$ point if you look around.
Unlike the Samsung that are already been of the market for a couple of months and start getting cheaper and cheaper than the official MSRP, Oneplus prices remain the same until new model reveals .

    if not for gsmarena then i won't have known that this phone doesn't even have OIS. none of youtubers with their beautiful b- rolls and their 5-6 million subs mentioned it.

      I tell you why not to buy one plus 9:
      1. Very expensive and nothing new to upgrade
      2. Plastic body
      3. Poor touch response. S 21 has 9ms
      4. 1080p display only for 729usd
      5. Poor external speakers
      6. No telephoto lens and oversaturated main camera
      7. Entire phone looks like another Chinese phone. No premium feels and looks

      Millions dollar advise STAY AWAY

          why are they making them so big? with 3 version they could have offered a different body design. apple does it, Samsung does it, things are working well for them isn't it?

              Only 2 things missing . I was desperately waiting for oneplus from last 6 months.. plastic frame and lack of OIS change my mind to pay 50000 for oneplus 9.. I'm OnePlus 6 user. And i love that OnePlus . But OnePlus compromise in build quality and stabilization ..

                Considering low camera quality, short battery life and other missing things, 4.3 rating just hurts my eyes.

                  Wait, "impressive low-light performance", whaaat? C'mon, GSMA, open your eyes!
                  Why the heck night shots looks so grainy, as if they were taken on 3PM camera? What's with the focus been off all the time?
                  And the noise... even in daylight, how come!?

                    But even then S21 is a better value, with IP rating, third camera etc. And as much as I hate S21, I'd choose it between the two. Or stay without a phone.

                      Anonymous, 23 Mar 2021A piece of trash it is not , overpriced maybe yes but once you use their OS you cant go back ... moreOne of these great myths of the tech industry is that oxygenOS and stock Android are good, the truth is they are just featureless.

                            No headphone jack was ok as I could replace it with a USB-C3.5mm dongle, but OIS can't be added using yet another dongle. The Pro version is too expensive, I never bought it (op6,7t owner) and it's generally not worth paying that much money for a phone (my 7t is pre-owned, not new BTW). I will have to pass on the Oneplus 9 (hopefully Oneplus 9t will have OIS or I will just pass on Oneplus entirely.

Half of them were imported from China and I've never missed the local warranty! The same applies for everyone I know with Mi phones too!

                                    FlaviuN93, 24 Mar 2021Unfortunately it seems that gsmarena ratings do not hold up. How does this phone get a higher ... moreWe understand the confusion around the current rating. It's a fairly complex system that involves a lot of factors to be weighed in before averaging it out to a final number. We do agree that the final score is too high, especially compared with the competing devices that have the same score but are better overall. We are reassessing the ratings and the rating system in general. For now, we recommend just going by the text in the reviews.

OP9 series will ship with colorOS in China. It's only a matter of time that Oxygen OS is ditched to "streamline" R&D.
