Our Take
Keep in mind that while neither device has an IP rating, both smartphones have AMOLED displays that are HDR 10+ certified. Furthermore, the OnePlus 10R 5G comes with Android 12 preinstalled, and the company promises three years of OS updates. On the other hand, the Android 11 OS comes pre-installed on the 9RT. Users may receive Android 13 in that case, while 10R will allow updates to Android 14.
Furthermore, the Snapdragon 888 processor is found in the OnePlus 9RT, while the MediaTek Dimensity 8100-Max SoC is found in the OnePlus 10R 5G. As a result, you may notice a difference in performance on both phones.
