A detailed report from AnandTech reveals that the OnePlus 9 and the OnePlus 9 Pro are limiting the capabilities of the Snapdragon 888 when running popular apps like Chrome, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp. OnePlus is known for offering fast and fluid performance, but it seems that the company is throttling the performance of some popular apps in order to improve battery life. The company has now issued a statement explaining why it is limiting the performance of the OnePlus 9 series. This has helped to provide a smooth experience while reducing power consumption,” OnePlus said in its statement. “It’s disappointing to see OnePlus handsets making performance decisions based on application identifiers rather than application behaviour.” the company said.
