Today only: Get the OnePlus 9 for just $499 ($230 off)

It’s not even OnePlus Wednesday, and yet the smartphone giant just dropped an epic deal. Today only, you can pick up the OnePlus 9 for just $499 ($230 off).

Deals on the previous-generation handsets were to be expected in the wake of the OnePlus 10 Pro launch, but this is the best price we’ve ever seen on the OnePlus 9 by some distance. On a good day, you might have been able to pick it up for just under $600 in the past, but a 31% price drop is unprecedented.

The OnePlus 9 packs a host of features and specifications that elevated it above the OnePlus 8. It uses the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 processor, can take in a day’s power in only 15 minutes, and has built-in Alexa functionality. In terms of specs, the OnePlus 9 has a 120Hz 6.55-inch HD display, triple camera system (48MP, 50MP ultrawide, and 2MP monochrome), 8GB of RAM, and 5G capabilities.

While dwarfed by the massive savings on offer today, there are a couple of other nice aspects to this deal. You also get a free Sandstone Bumper case worth $25, and if you have an old OnePlus device, you can trade it in for a further $100 off your purchase.

The deal ends tonight and we have no idea when or if it might be offered again, so hit the widget below to check it out.
