#Moonshot: Pete Lau teases new OnePlus announcement; here's what Twitterverse had to say
On Monday, OnePlus fans were treated to a new announcement on Twitter after CEO Pete Lau posted a picture with the caption 'Stay tuned for March 8'. The company is reportedly set to launch three new smartphones — the OnePlus 9, 9 Pro and 9R — and a smartwatch this month.
The tech-giant has encouraged Twitter users to 'guess and win' after posting a screenshot of the picture with their answers. Users will need to tag three people and @OnePlus_IN, @amazonIN to win smartphones by the company.
Early specs
OnePlus 9 Pro is tipped to come with 65W wired fast charging, which is found on the OnePlus 8T.
The OnePlus 9 Pro will also support reverse wireless charging. This feature can be used to charge accessories such as Bluetooth headphones, or a smartwatch.
Android Authority reports that the OnePlus 9 is expected to have a 6.55-inch, 120Hz 1080p display, while the 9 Pro will have a 6.78-inch, 120Hz 1440p display.
Both devices are likely to house Qualcomm's Snapdragon 888 chip.
The cheaper OnePlus 9R (or OnePlus 9 Lite) may come with Snapdragon 865 processor.
OnePlus 9 Lite will borrow a lot from the recently launched OnePlus 8T. It may feature a 90Hz or 120Hz AMOLED display, and a quad-camera setup similar to the OnePlus 8T.
Twitter frenzy
Avid fans and tech enthusiasts found themselves posting possible answers on the micro-blogging website. And while it was no surprise to many, several found themselves expressing excitement over OnePlus' announcement since Monday. Here's what Twitterverse had to react:
