Just a few days after writing our OnePlus 9 Features Wish List, an official tweeted that the OnePlus 9 and 9 Pro are currently in development under a refreshing codename. “Lemonade” is what the OnePlus 9 series is called, at least internally, according to tipster Max J. Maybe we'll see a phone with refreshing and colorful features. To that end, the tweet included a photoshopped image of the alleged OnePlus codename, superimposed by two blue flat-screen phones believed to represent the OnePlus 9 and OnePlus 9 Pro.

And when someone asked if the OnePlus 9 would be curved like the OnePlus 8 or flat like the OnePlus 8T, he said he "can't confirm or deny a curved screen at this point." It sounds like he expects the new line to launch in April 2021, which follows our own independent prediction of April or May 2021. That sounds like a guess, though, not a leak. (via Phone Arena)
