Editor's note - This news previously was about OnePlus Malaysia teasing the arrival of the OnePlus 9 series. It has been updated

To refresh your memory, the OnePlus 9 series was revealed back in late March this year. There was no word on when it would arrive in Malaysia but looks like we got our first clue. OnePlus Malaysia just posted a teaser hinting that the OnePlus 9 series would be announced on 11 May 2021. an official date for the launch - 17 May 2021 in Malaysia. 

We have no doubt that both the OnePlus 9 5G and OnePlus 9 Pro 5G would come together. It's also important to note that the 11 May date is just going to be an announcement and not a launching date, so until then, do stay tuned for that. Knowing OnePlus Malaysia, they would likely announce the pre-order bundles and date for the Malaysian market. The live stream Facebook page is already live so you can head over here to book your date. The time scheduled is 12 PM and you can also watch it live on YouTube (link below). 

The #OnePlus9Series is on the horizon. We would like to invite you to witness the greatest live launch together. See...
