I'm in the market for a new Android phone. My last 3 devices have been OnePlus, and I've had my 6T for 3 years so it's time to upgrade. I've heard mixed reports about the 9 Pro (and I don't fancy shelling out for the 10), so I'm considering alternatives. There seem to be some good deals on the S21 Ultra, and the camera setup on that does seem to be outstanding.

 

My main requirements are good camera, good battery life, wireless charging and good ongoing updates/support. Any guidance on which of these 2 options would work best, or should I look at something else?

 

I'm not keen on jumping (back) into the Apple ecosystem, so I'm not considering iPhones.

 

Thanks.

I have just ordered the one plus 9 bit cheaper than the pro and the price difference didn't warrant it for my case.

 

Been pleased with my one plus 6 but time to move on.

S21U would be my vote since you don't get 5G, VoLTE and VoWiFi on 9Pro or any of the newer Oneplus flagship these days but only if you care about those features being available.

 

Personally if I am paying for a flagship, I'd like all these features available on the phone.

Take into account for VoLTE support many sites do not have 3G
