An Amazing Girly SmartPhone!
Very Pretty Design and still a Powerful Phone. Phone gets pretty hot real fast when using it. Not much different from my Asus Zenfone 8 that was release about the same time. Very good 5G connection on Metro PCS on T-Mobile network. It looks good with a girly phone case. Brought it for my mom. It is shipped with Android 11. You need to download ‘Oxygen Updater” from Google Play Store to update this phone to Android / Oxygen 12 then use the phone updater in system settings to update it to the latest OS. The max and last OS for this phone is Android 14. For a pretty phone, this phone need more default or community provided wallpapers. This phone does have AOD. The phone camera only works a lot better when it is updated to Android 13. At Android 11 the camera is a little buggy and slow.

Great value for the money! 6 month review
This phone is honestly great. Unlocked for your phone carrier and you could also unlock the bootloader too and root, install custom roms etc. I bought this at the time since it was one of the last oneplus phones that gave customers access to msm tools which allows you to restore your phone if you somehow mess up installing custom roms. The phone is fast, amoled screen looks nice and crisp. The snapdragon 888 processor is fast but it does heat up. I’ve rooted the phone and simply underclock it so it actually stays nice and cool all the time and even extends the battery life.If you’re deciding between an older flagship and a midrange phone, I think pretty much you’re always going to get a better deal with an older flagship (betters specs) unless you need a specific feature from a budget phone like sd card or phone jack.My only real complaint about this phone is the in-display fingerprint reader. It’s not as fast as back fingerprint readers but I can’t blame oneplus as android a whole has moved towards using in-display finger readers. Also if your thumb is slightly wet then it likely won’t read your fingerprint.

Replacing a failing Pixel 3XL, this has done the job quite well, but…there are some quibbles.
Full disclosure I enjoy the more pure Android eco-system. Having read about One Plus Oxygen being an open source port of Android that gets pretty good reviews I decided to go for the One Plus 9 5G. My carrier is Google Fi, and I was so disappointed they started selling Samsung phones, of which I’m not a fan at all.First thing I noticed after purchasing it was the fit and finish is quite nice. It’s not a brick, not svelte per se, but it has a good weight to it. The width was a welcome change from the Pixel 3XL. That minor reduction in width made this much more capable as a single hand phone. I’m not one to really care about fingerprints but you will get fingerprints all over the back and the face…again, whatevs.The speed. Out of the gate, when I dropped my Google Fi sim into the device the first thing I noticed was the speed. This is a fast tight phone. Which I do appreciate. Especially since my Pixel was on it’s last legs and I really did need a replacement that would be a decent upgrade.If you purchase the unlocked version you should be aware of a few settings so your coverage is taking advantage of both WiFi calling/data, and roaming. Which sort of leads me to believe that since you have to make those adjustments in the settings menu. I wonder how many people have purchased the phone and thought, damn my coverage is awful with this thing. So, I ding them for that….but then, this isn’t a on and done purchase. You have to do a bit of finagling with the hardware. Welcome to Android….lol.Charging. WOW…just WOW. I have a 15w wireless charger I used with my Pixel and it charges the One Plus 9 5G…just fine….and…not sure I get why people complain about the wireless charging but in my experience it’s just fine. At work I charge it connected to a docking station and…..it’s FAST. And that’s using my Pixel charging cable.Battery life. I don’t think this is intended as a battery sipper. it will go through a full charge in a day. With some room to spare. But overall I wasn’t dismayed by the battery life. I’ve tested it with the various and NUMEROUS battery life extension settings on the phone, some of which are confusing…again…welcome to Android. But I like playing around with stuff like this;Camera. Love it. It’s great. I’ve literally taken shots with my Pixel that I regard as stunning. And in the few weeks I’ve had the One Plus 9 5G, can’t complain at all. If anything, I’ve noticed a depth of color in both wide and closer shots that feels more realistic and to be honest I’m kind of shocked at how well the camera works compared to the Pixel 3XL, which…I really loved that camera, a lot. The interface is quite different but it’s responsive and the level of tweeking you can do to get your shot is miles apart from the Pixel.What’s not so great: Well, on the second week I scratched the screen, Just above the fingerprint sensor. I had it in my pocket with some keys, my bad, and I was kind of surprised it scratched so easily. I’ve had my Pixel for over 3 years, handling the exact same way and I never experienced that. The screen never had any wear at all. The scratch isn’t bad, you can only see it if you look at it at an angle. But still. This concerns me.Fingerprint sensor: hit or miss. It’s built into the front of the screen, which is nice. But, it takes multiple tries to unlock, and if your fingers are particularly dry, or just off from the sensor. Yes, you’ll get a warning and have to enter your pin after so many tries. To be honest, this doesn’t bother me that much. But it has been an annoyance a few times.Choices!: There’s a LOT to play with in the settings, for me not a big deal at all, for others….gives me pause. Not sure I’d recommend this phone to someone not into having fun with the settings. Or a person that just wants to turn it on a go.File transfers to Mac: It’d be nice if I could connect the phone to my mac to transfer files. The phone automatically offers a USB driver to install when you connect it to a PC. Not so much with a Mac. There was an article on the One Plus website about enabling developer mode so you could enable USB logging so you could do file transfers….tried it, didn’t work. Not a deal breaker but…..again, not the most user friendly experience.Conclusion: I like the phone, and I think it’ll serve me for what I need it to do. Speed, durability and camera. 5G coverage where I’m at is, spotty, but, have noticed a speed boost when it does show up in the top menu bar…which again…wow, LOADS of icons in the top home screen menu bar…it’s kinda funny. And Camera, I used my camera phone on my Pixel all the time. If this phone’s camera was lackluster or a compromise I would have sent it back fast. But from what I’ve experienced, especially the camera interface, I have a lot to play with and for that I’m excited.

I am disappointed. I ordered this product and it says that this is the US version and it has wireless charging well you guessed right it’s none of those things. It’s almost a scam.

The OnePlus 9 Astral Black is an outstanding smartphone with a sleek design and smooth 120Hz AMOLED display. Powered by the Snapdragon 888, it handles everything effortlessly, from multitasking to gaming. The Hasselblad triple-camera system delivers stunning photos, even in low light. Charging is incredibly fast with 65W Ultra Fast Charge, and the 15W wireless charging is a great bonus. Battery life lasts all day with moderate use. The built-in Alexa is a nice touch for smart home control. With 5G support, itâs a future-proof device. An excellent phone for anyone seeking premium performance and features!
