The OnePlus 9 RT is expected to launch on October 15, according to rumors, and it will be equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 processor. It seems that this report is incorrect, since a future OnePlus smartphone, most likely the 9 RT, was just discovered on Geekbench, sporting a Snapdragon 888 processor and 12 GB of RAM.
As a result of the codename “lahaina,” we are sure that this is the flagship chipset for 2021. As opposed to the Snapdragon 870, which has the codename “kona”. OnePlus 9 RT’s performance statistics for single-core and multiple cores are similarly closer to those of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888. This would result in the device is just a marginal improvement over the OnePlus 9R.
The decision to postpone the 9T/9T Pro flagship until 2021 was made. It is most likely as a result of the chip scarcity in the industry.
The OnePlus 9 RT will be equipped with a 50MP camera using a Sony IMX766 sensor. This is the same sensor used in the company’s two flagship phones the OnePlus 9 and the Oppo Find X3.
