Today is the Launch day of the OnePlus 9 series and, at this point, almost everything there is to know about the next cost-effective devices has been leaked, disclosed or provoked directly by OnePlus.
Everything but a small detail – the price of all those supposedly first-rate specifications at affordable prices. At least prices used to be affordable when OnePlus was the underdog, but now that it’s pouring $ 150 million into its mobile photography efforts with Hasselblad, his ambitions are much greater.
The alleged price of the OnePlus 9 Pro and the release date were leaked
The phones have already appeared in a European retailer, reports GSMManiak, and while prices are par considering the flagships of popular brands Snapdragon 888, the 9 Pro is slightly higher than the OnePlus charged for its predecessor:
- OnePlus 9 Pro price in US dollars: $ 1139 (12 GB / 256 GB), $ 1039 (8 GB / 128 GB)
- OnePlus 9 price in USD: $ 905 (12GB / 256GB), $ 805 (8GB / 128GB)
- OnePlus 9 series pre-order and release date: pre-orders on March 31, launch in April (EU)
Of course, these OnePlus 9 prices are after the conversion of the local currency, and Europe has higher taxes on electronics imports, so U.S. prices are likely to be at least a Benjamin lower in dollars, but still the fact that we can see the first OnePlus phone to break the $ 1000 price barrier is a little worrying.
About that, Winfuture’s Ronald Quandt confirmed European prices for entry-level models as well, and they do not differ from what the Series 8 commanded at launch, but it is the top memory models that can exceed the $ 999 limit.
