A few days ago, we reported that OnePlus is working on a new phone powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 1200 5G chipset. At that time, there was no information on which model it would be, but this morning, the leaks industry has confirmed that.
Today, the OnePlus Nord 2 5G has been listed on the AI Benchmark site, in which it was further revealed that this new model in the Nord series would feature the Dimensity 1200 chipset. It would be the same Dimensity 1200-powered machine that was leaked before.
For the first time in history, OnePlus will use MediaTek chipset, and surprisingly, the first model will be from the Nord series.
Previously, the famous blogger Digital Chat Station revealed that this new phone will feature a single punch hole display with Full-HD+ (maybe 2400x1080p) resolution and 90Hz refresh rate. The screen-to-body ratio is also expected to be decent.
On the backside, the design would be similar to the OnePlus 9 series. The camera module would be the same as in the OnePlus 9 Pro. The only difference is that the Nord 2 will feature three lenses (50MP Sony IMX766 + 8MP + 2MP), and at the spot of the fourth lens, the LED flash will be placed.
A 4500mAh battery will be used inside the phone while the charging specifications haven’t been disclosed yet. It is worth mentioning that the expected price of this model is around $300. The Nord 5G has a starting price of $175, equipped with Snapdragon 765G.
This time, the OnePlus Nord 2 5G will be a flagship phone instead of a premium mid-range phone like the previous model. There is no news yet regarding the device’s launch.
