OnePlus 9 could launch earlier than usual in 2021, according to the latest report. The OnePlus 8T launched last week on October 14, exactly six months after the company announced the OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro. Now, it seems like the company is gearing to launch the OnePlus 9 a month before expected. 

OnePlus has been scheduling its flagship launches a month earlier than usual for a few devices now. From a launch in the month of May for the OnePlus 6 and OnePlus 7, the company announced the OnePlus 8 in April, earlier this year and is following the same tradition with its T-series.

According to a report by Android Central that cites “insider sources”, we may get the OnePlus 9 around mid-March in 2021. However, we would advise our readers to take this with a pinch of salt as there are many factors at play and plans could change between now and when the phone officially debuts. Nevertheless, an early launch would allow the company’s products to have an extended shelf-life than the current six months refresh cycle. Apart from that, there’s nothing known about the OnePlus 9, especially since the OnePlus 8T is still pretty new and has recently gone on sale across different regions.

As per a tweet by the noted tipster, Max J. the OnePlus 9 goes by the internal codename ‘Lemonade’. OnePlus 9 could likely to be powered by the next Snapdragon 875 flagship processor that is set to launch on December 1, later this year. We expect OnePlus to make significant advances in its camera technology next year and maybe update that selfie camera. It is also likely that OnePlus 9 features the 65W fast charging tech that debuted with the OnePlus 8T.
