Pros and Cons

OnePlus 9 Pro

Strengths

The phone has lots of screen to mess with at 1440p resolution.
The camera tries to fix the reputation of having a decent camera, even though it's not perfect.
The phone has lots of RAM and storage that comes stock, making it suitable for heavy users.
The performance is still really good, feeling better than a Samsung phone with the same processor.
Using the phone is actually good like really good, especially with Oxygen OS 14.
Double tap to wake and sleep are still present, and the always on display looks good.

Weaknesses

The battery life can be a bummer, and it gets warm for basic usage.
The monochrome camera is a flop and shouldn't be included in the phone.
The telephoto sensor has poor focus and megapixel count, making it not as usable as expected.
Nighttime shots are easy to blur and the color science gets confused.
The price is mid-$200s, which might be too high considering the battery life issues.
The camera doesn't change the association of OnePlus having a decent camera rather than a flagship camera.

OnePlus 9 Pro

The OnePlus 9 Pro is a flagship phone that promised much but delivered less. Despite its impressive specs and design, the camera struggles with night shots and the battery life falls short of expectations. With Android 12 and Android 13 initially marred by an awkward merging of color OS and oxygen OS, this phone was a long time coming to its own. Is it worth considering despite its flaws? Let's dive in to find out.

Honor Magic7 Lite

The Honor Magic7 Lite promises to deliver a robust and feature-rich mid-range experience. This phone boasts a massive battery life, making it an ideal choice for those who need a device that can keep up with their daily demands. With a 5-star SGS certification, the Magic7 Lite's durability is put to the test - can you scratch its back and front sides with your keys or coins? Drop it from 2 meters high? Take it down to -30°C or heat it up to +50°C? This phone has been designed to withstand the toughest conditions. In this review, we'll dive into the Magic7 Lite's capabilities and see if it lives up to its promises.
