OnePlus issued a statement to Android Authority addressing the matter: 'Our top priority is always delivering a great user experience with our products, based in part on acting quickly on important user feedback. We found that the OnePlus 9 series limits the performance of Google Chrome while older OnePlus phones do not. In some of our own testing, we found that AnandTech's data is on the mark. Geekbench called Oxygen OS's behavior a form of 'benchmark manipulation.' OnePlus has yet to issue a statement on the matter. After conducting its own investigation, Geekbench recently announced that it has removed all OnePlus 9 benchmarks from its charts. Geekbench, one of the more popular benchmarking sites, took these allegations seriously. According to the team's research, Oxygen OS apparently limits the performance of some popular Android apps - but none of those apps are benchmark suites.

Android Authority reports: Yesterday, AnandTech posted some information about 'weird behavior' it spotted with the OnePlus 9 Pro.
