While the periscope lens has been used mostly on top-of-the-line flagship models from brands, Realme has shown that the feature could be included in a mid-range offering with its Realme X3 SuperZoom. As OnePlus has built its brand from the ground up by offering premium features at budget, it does come as a surprise that the brand will be opting out of this feature with the flagship OnePlus 9. On the other hand, there are rumours that the OnePlus 9 camera setup will include Leica-branded lenses.

The OnePlus 9 specifications will reportedly include a 6.55-inch FHD+ (1,080 x 2,400p) panel with 120Hz display refresh rate and 20:9 aspect ratio. The phone will most likely be powered by a new Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset, coupled with 8GB and 12GB RAM options and up to 256GB built-in storage. On the software side, you can expect Android 11-based OxygenOS out of the box. The handset has been tipped to come with a 4,500mAh battery and 65W fast-charging support. It will reportedly also support 30W wireless charging and reverse charging.

On the optics front, the OnePlus 9 is said to feature a 50MP primary wide-angle sensor (f/1.79), which will reportedly be marketed as 'UltraVision' and will be coupled with a 20MP Cine ultra-wide sensor (f/1.8) and a 12MP telephoto sensor with a large f/3.4 aperture and OIS.

The OnePlus 9 price is expected to start around $600 (about Rs 45,000).
