NEW ONEPLUS PHONES ON THE WAY
OnePlus will release its next generation smartphone series on March 23.
The OnePlus 9 series will feature for the first time the fruits of OnePlus’s multi-year collaboration with Swedish camera-maker Hasselblad.
OnePlus has been innovative in its camera offerings before, but working with a giant of the photography industry like Hasselblad could considerably up the quality.
The 9 series is rumoured to include the standard three different handsets – a regular one, and a “pro” model with expanded specs, as well as a “lite” lower-cost option.
Aside from the collaboration with Hasselblad, we have few confirmed details about the new phone’s features, but rumours suggest it will boast fast 45W charging, reverse wireless charging, 5G and a curved 1440p display with a high 120Hz refresh rate.
Cyprus has said it will open its borders to vaccinated Britons from the beginning of May – although UK government restrictions on foreign travel will still be in force.
Nearly a million people in the UK have received two doses of a Covid-19 jab, and the Cypriot government said those who had both jabs could travel without restrictions from May 1.
However, the date Cyprus has set to open its borders to Britons is still more than two weeks before the earliest people in England will be able to leave the country for holidays.
Cyprus’s deputy tourism minister Savvas Perdios said the country would allow Britons who had been given vaccines approved by the European Medicines Agency the right to enter without the need for a negative test or to quarantine.
Tourists would be required to have had their second dose at the latest seven days before travel, the minister added.
