WHAT GEAR DO I USE?
Heart rate sensor: https://mikeobrienmedia.com/Polar-H10
(Polar H10 is known to be one of the most accurate in the industry and therefore acts as a great standard to which I compare smartwatch heart rate sensors)

ADDITIONAL REVIEW NOTES:
An elegant hybrid between the Pixel and iPhone’s simplicity, and the feature packed Samsung phones. This phone is fast, helps you accomplish what you need to, and gets out of your way. Fast screen, brief animations, quick access to actually practical tools, fast charging, and fast processor
PHYSICAL
I LOVE the switch
I love how the volume is on the left side
OnePlus still does stuff Samsung stopped doing, like shipping with an incredible charger, and also adding a screen protector, pre installed
Cannot sign in with the screen off
Fingerprint sensor is a bit low for my liking
In dark environments, the FP sensor can be blinding
Clean haptics - not the strongest, but well controlled and high quality
No expandable storage :(
Some people had overheating issues, but I have not noticed that yet
Screen curve is not a problem for me. Last year’s S20 for example had edge issues for me
50W wireless charging stand is insane! And 65W warp charging my not be ideal for the battery, but is so nice to use
CAMERA
No 16:9 photos?
Video is trash.
Sky looks too teal at dusk
Digital zoom is weak
Pro photo mode is great
Wide angle macro is great
1080p limit on front camera - sucks!
Camera isn’t a huge weakness, but in a world where cameras are the primary selling points of phones, focusing on everything that isn’t the camera might not have been the best idea, or maybe it was?
Natural looking photos - not too over saturated or too flat
SOFTWARE EXPERIENCE
Choosing a codec is easy. No developer settings required
Battery life is great. I'm getting 1.5 days with max specs - refresh rate, resolution, NFC
Zen mode is awesome!
Clean, elegant software with just enough features, but not too many
Google pay without doing anything - fantastic
This phone feels much faster than the S21, thanks to the lighter, smoother software with simpler and quicker animations
I love the swipe down interface, but I wish notifications and quick settings appeared there. I hate needing to choose
Android keeps pace with iPhones now with nearby share, Google RCS messaging, duo

It looks like OnePlus really made a complete package here. This is probably my favorite android phone ever… for now. The downside? The camera is good, but not as good as the iPhone 12 or S21 ultra. On the upside, it costs less than many top tier flagships and offers a superior experience. For anyone seeking the customizability of android phones but with the simple clutter free experience you get with iPhones, this is a fantastic buy. The OnePlus 9 Pro is fast and there when you need it, and gets out of your way when you don’t
