- iPhone 12: https://click.pckt.shop/to/uHxMfFKRVb
This is the OnePlus 9, and by all counts, I think this is the phone we were asking for. I mean, don't get me wrong, I don't know anyone who wouldn't want all the hardware on the 9 Pro, but the price is kind of steep, and if the implementation still doesn't add up, the 9 might just be the right amount of everything.
What's interesting is that I think the dynamics of the flagship killer have changed a lot. Back in 2014, the OnePlus One's selling point was flagship specs for a crazy price. For context, that same year, you could buy two of these OnePlus phones for the price of an iPhone 6, or if you wanna really compare apples to apples, two and spare change for those specs on a Galaxy S5.
So of course OnePlus went viral. It challenged traditional smartphone pricing, marketing, and the concept of value. It was proof that a good enough product at a no-brainer price could make every competitor look bad, and that's with minimal marketing spend, and less certifications.
The problem is when the business case is so good, that the big kids followed. To quote the Dark Knight, it was only a matter of time before the hero lived long enough to become another villain. Right now every single flagship maker has their own flagship killer, and for a price that's caught up with the yearly price bumps from OnePlus. It's come to a point where the difference is so minimal, that if the price can't save you, the implementation better be as lunar as all the hype in the marketing. I'm Jaime Rivera with Pocketnow and this is our full review.
