OnePlus could soon launch a new cheap flagship phone. Dubbed the OnePlus 9RT, it could be an upgraded OnePlus 9R inspired by the OnePlus 8T.
Update, October 8,2021 (2 AM ET): We’ve updated our OnePlus 9RT hub with confirmed launch details, new renders, and more. Read on for the latest. Original article: The OnePlus 9 series burst onto the scene a few months back. As a follow-up, the company usually debuts a year-end T series device bringing a chipset bump and smaller improvements. You’d probably expect that phone to be the OnePlus 9T. However,2021’s lineup could be a little different. OnePlus could soon debut a new hybrid device line melding its T and R series. The OnePlus 9RT would be the first product to bear the new suffix and stand as the company’s year-end release. But what do we know about the phone? Below, we round up the hottest OnePlus 9RT rumors, leaks, and news thus far. Judging by its name, the OnePlus 9RT would be more a OnePlus 9R revision than a OnePlus 8T upgrade. Suggestions that the OnePlus 9R will be used as a base for the device adds credence to this theory. However, as OnePlus might not launch a OnePlus 9T series at all this year, the OnePlus 9RT could be filling a gap in that device line, too.
