Let’s start with the basics. We’ll help you figure out how to download and set a wallpaper.

Start by downloading the wallpaper you want. Don’t simply download the previews shown in this post. Those are compressed images and don’t offer all the image quality a worthy background image deserves. Instead, click on the button below each entry. This will take you to a download page where you can get the full-resolution images.

Send the full-resolution image to your phone. You can use Google Drive, send yourself an email, or transfer it using USB or Bluetooth.

Once the OnePlus wallpaper is stored on your phone, go ahead and follow the steps below to set it as your background.

Note: We came up with this process using a OnePlus 9 Pro running Android 11. We’ll also include instructions for setting a wallpaper on a stock Android device, using a Pixel 4a running Android 11. Just keep in mind that steps may change depending on the device and software your device is using. Some of these steps may be different for you.

The OnePlus 9 features minimal and colorful wallpapers very similar to Samsung’s. The images are a bit more abstract and playful, though. We know many of you will enjoy them, and they come in a variety of colors, so chances are one of these will look great on your phone.


OnePlus 8T

The OnePlus 8T was the first to feature Samsung-like wallpapers. They are pretty different from the newer ones on the OnePlus 9, though. Colors, while vibrant, are not as saturated as others coming from OnePlus. They might fit some smartphones better.


OnePlus 8

You can see designs get a little wilder here. That’s because the OnePlus 8 and its predecessors were a bit more… adventurous. These wallpapers have more saturated colors and higher contrasting hues. They aren’t as elegant as newer OnePlus wallpapers, but they sure are fun! By the way, these are also available straight from the artist.


OnePlus 7T

The OnePlus 7T wallpapers are also colorful, abstract, and bold. They will look great on any screen, but they’ll be especially stunning if your display can produce high contrast, vibrant colors, and deep blacks.


OnePlus 7 Pro

The OnePlus 7 Pro wallpapers are much more dynamic. Especially the ones that feature stormy clouds, which make for a very moody look. These are great for users who want more bold and in-your-face OnePlus wallpapers.


OnePlus 6T

OnePlus 6T wallpapers are hard to decipher, but the abstract designs are very colorful and look awesome. They aren’t many, but they’re worth a look.


OnePlus 6 wallpapers

The OnePlus 6 backgrounds look psychedelic, right? These wallpapers are very unique, but they’re also some of the best ones the company has released. This is why they were actually included on the OnePlus 6T. They will look great on any phone, though. Go get them!


OnePlus 5T wallpapers

The OnePlus 5T takes things up a notch with some very wild and bold wallpapers. These all have strong lines, aggressive curves, and strong colors. They’re not for the subtle users among us, but we know some of you will love them.


OnePlus 5 wallpapers

The OnePlus 5 came with a gorgeous AMOLED display, a technology known for its deep blacks, stunning contrast, and vibrant colors. You can see them trying to showcase these capabilities in their wallpapers. The best part about these wallpapers is that they’re available straight from the artist who created them, Hampus Olsson.

OnePlus is a fun company, and it can be a bit spontaneous. The company released some surprise wallpapers right after a major rebranding, and right before the launch of the OnePlus 8. We’re glad they did, because these are some of the funnest in existence. Just don’t expect them to be subtle. On the contrary, they are super colorful and will stand out in any crowd.
