On Friday, March 26, the OnePlus 9 and the OnePlus 9 Pro became certified for Verizon's network. Before that, T-Mobile has accidentally leaked a possible discounted price for the model. The company provided information about the phone as well.
What networks will have the phone's 5g capability
According to The Verge, Verizon has officially announced that OnePlus 9 and OnePlus 9 Pro are now certified by their network. This means, that in its launch date, the phone will be made available on the platform, with its 5G support.
Meanwhile, the only network that will be able to use 5G with the phone currently will be T-Mobile on launch day, based on the leaked report.
From the beginning, the 5G story for OnePlus 9 series phones has been confusing. Only the mmWave-equipped Pro model comes with 5G connectivity, and according to T-Mobile's announcement, only the T-Mobile network will offer it.
At the time of the announcement, AT&T will be continuing to charge its customers for 5G access even though they cannot currently use it.
On the current OnePlus compatibility chart, AT&T bands are not listed among compatible bands, so this indicates the phones are not compatible with them.
Although there was some confusion at the outset, reports show that the phone can now be utilized on two of the three largest US carriers.
It's still unclear whether when these phones will be listed in the Verizon store, yet if you lease an unlocked OnePlus 9, you can use them with either an existing Verizon account or a new Verizon account.

As reported by TmoNews, T-mobile has given specific details about the details of the respective mobile devices.
For a limited time, T-Mobile customers have the opportunity to get a discount on either model for a limited time. The OnePlus 9 is 50% off, while the OnePlus 9 Pro 5G will cost up to $365 if consumers choose to carry two lines or upgrade.
The OnePlus 9 5G is equipped with a 6.55-inch FHD+ 120 Hz display along with three rear-facing cameras that include a 50mm ultra-wide camera.

The device has a Hasselblad camera system with a 48-megapixel main sensor, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide sensor, and an 8-megapixel wide-angle lens. Both wireless and wired charging options are available.
