OnePlus 9RT 5G specifications, features

The OnePlus 9RT 5G’s design is similar to the OnePlus 9’s. There is a corner punch-hole camera on the display and slim bezels all around. The glass rear panel has a matt finish and houses a rectangular camera module. There is no physical fingerprint sensor here as the company is offering an in-display one. The Alert Slider has also been retained, which comes as a sigh of relief for those who thought OnePlus was done with the slider.

As a flagship phone, the OnePlus 9RT 5G gets all the bells and whistles. It features a 6.62-inch E4 OLED display with up to a 120Hz refresh rate, 1300nits peak brightness, HDR10+ support, and 600Hz touch response. The device is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset coupled with up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB internal storage.

Notably, this is the first OnePlus phone to ship with OPPO’s new ColorOS 12 based on Android 12 in China. It isn’t certain yet, but rumours suggest the device will launch in India with ColorOS as well instead of OxygenOS.

In the camera department, the OnePlus 9RT 5G comes equipped with a triple rear camera system. The setup includes a 50MP Sony IMX766 primary camera with OIS and EIS support, 16MP wide-angle lens, and a macro lens. At the front, the OnePlus phone gets a 16MP camera for selfies. The device houses a 4,500mAh battery and it supports Warp Charge 65T 65W fast charging. Connectivity options include 5G support, Wi-Fi 6, and USB Type-C port, among other things.
