OnePlus phone cameras it just can’t compare to what you get on Apple and Samsung phones, but according to a new leak, help could be underway. It seems that the company is collaborating with Hasselblad on the future OnePlus 9 Pro.

The latest details about OnePlus’ next flagship phone has been unveiled to some extent, when a fan accidentally fell into YouTuber Dave2D’s Discord server claiming to have information about OnePlus 9 Pro.

After contacting the fan, Dave2D finally got a series of screenshots showing what it looks like genuine OnePlus 9 Pro, which includes a new quad camera module in the back, with clear Hasselblad marking, support for a 3.3x optical zoom and some other noteworthy specifications.

IIt’s all over these screenshots may be falsified, but based on previous plays for the standard OnePlus 9, which presented an almost identical room module, but with two shirts instead of four, this leak seems to pass the initial sniff test.

Unfortunately, when Dave2D contacted OnePlus CEO and co-founder Pete Lau, Lau did not confirm the leak or indicate that a similar camera system would be available on the OnePlus 9 standard. But Lau has already done highlighted saying that one of OnePlus’ big goals for 2021 is to focus on camera quality. Wwith other phone brands having a partnership with notable camera companies (see Huawei relationship with Leica and HMD’s with Zeiss for several Nokia phones), a collaboration between OnePlus and Hasselblad not only seems quite plausible, but also a very good idea for a company that wants to update its camera game.

Apart from the 9 Pros rooms, leak also detailed support for a 120Hz dynamic refresh rate similar to that available in the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and Galaxy S21 Ultra, along with 11 GB of RAM (which is kind of a weird number) and 256 GB of storage. And while it wasn’t mentioned which processor the phone used, based on OnePlus’ previous history with mobile chips, it’s a safe bet that the company will probably go with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 888.

And in a separate drain from Max Jambor, appears OnePlus 9 Pro will also be offers faster than 45-watt wireless charging and support for reverse wireless charging, in addition to the 30-watt OnePlus wireless charging introduced on OnePlus 8 Pro.

OK, when will we know more for real? The next batch of OnePlus phones is expected to be announced later this spring with a recent report from Android Central claiming that there will be some sort of launch event set for once in March.
