There is a small punch-hole provided at the top left corner for housing the selfie camera and for unlocking the OnePlus 9, OnePlus has gone with the under-display fingerprint scanner. Here the edges are flat and almost bezel-less. On the bottom edge, there is a Type-C charging port along with a SIM tray and speaker grille. The right edge is carrying the volume rocker and the power button.

Coming to the rear, the design is neat and clean with only the OnePlus logo and a large camera bump at the top left position spoiling the scene. The colours and the material that OnePlus has gone with are truly awesome. The frame is made of plastic, which is not a welcome step though. The overall weight is just 183 grams, thus making it comfortable to hold.

OnePlus 9 is a premium range device with its display measuring 6.55-inches and exhibits an impressive 120Hz refresh rate screen. Not only this, the display of OnePlus 9 features 1080 pixels of resolution and along with an aspect ratio of 20:9. The Fluid AMOLED display is provided with Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection, however, the higher version would have been much appreciated. 

Some of the additional features supported by the display include Reading Mode, Night Mode, Vibrant Colour Effect and Ultra-high Video Resolution.

For seamless performance, OnePlus has offered the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset in OnePlus 9, which is a 5G processor.

Only the telephoto lens is missing here, which could have added more laurels to the camera section of OnePlus 9. The additional features supported by the rear camera include Dual LED Flash, Multi Focus and supports 8K video recording. The camera lens also comes with software support for world-class image processing powered by Hasselblad. 

For selfies, there is a 16MP sensor under the small-sized punch-hole on the front with a Time Lapse feature and supports 1080p video shooting.
