The OnePlus Nord may be one of the most interesting smartphones we know nothing about.1 Introduced at the end of the 6th month as a concept rather than a real product, the OnePlus Nord shows the efforts of emerging phone manufacturers to return to their roots in producing high-quality phones with premium features that are much cheaper than major devices. And that philosophy extends to more than just a mobile phone.

However, the phone should be at the heart of OnePlus's efforts with nord, at least initially. The only thing was that there was little official news about what form that phone would take. It is expected to change to 7/7, when OnePlus is supposed to elaborate on the latest phones and how to balance high-end features with more modest prices.

Leading up to that event, the biggest questions facing OnePlus Nord are: The only thing we know about OnePlus's new phone release plans is that at least on the first Nord device, even before OnePlus's sneak peak at the ONEPLUS Nord in part of its initial deployment plans, CEO Pete Lau said the product will be launched in India and Europe for the first time.

"But don't worry, we are also looking to bring more affordable smartphones to North America in the near future as well," Lau said June23 Fora

"The near future" could mean a lot — perhaps later this month, or OnePlus will usually be the latest flagship (in this case, the iPhone). OnePlus8T) will be on display later this year. OnePlus is expected to unveil details of the Nord phone for77.7 million or less, but believes it will focus on India and Europe at that point.

We've already explained why OnePlus thinks it shouldn't wait that long to bring the Nord phone here. For now, when OnePlus said that a more affordable phone would eventually come to the U.S., it must be satisfied with the idea that it would mean sooner rather than later.The OnePlus Nord teaser event of 6/29 did not provide much detail about the budget phone that OnePlus plans to launch. We expect to hear more about Nord's phone on 7/7, but until then, it has the same leaks we've heard since it was rumored that the device was called the oneplus8Lite and later called the oneplus Z.It helps to set expectations. In that case, the OnePlus Nord is expected to have a 6.4-inch AMOLED panel.

It will probably feature a Snapdragon 765G system-on-chip, providing the right power, game-focused performance, and perhaps most notably an affordable 5G connection. (The Samsung 599SAMSUNG Galaxy A71 5G and Motorola699Motorola Edge both have a Snapdragon 755 chipset, which is one of the cheapest 5G phones you can buy, at least for now.1)

The only thing we know about the OnePlus Nord's rear camera is that it has more than one of the same number of lenses as the OnePlus8 seen in the 3. The Oneplus Nord comes with 32 cameras with 8MP main sensor and 2MP wide-angle lens, allowing you to take a snap selfie. In terms of battery, there are rumors that the oneplus Nord's power pack will be slightly smaller than the OnePlus8's 4,300 mAh battery, but the budget phone is expected to feature OnePlus's Warp Charge30T technology, allowing for faster charging.

But that's just speculation for now. The real proof of what's inside the OnePlus Nord will come a few days after OnePlus will tell you more about its budget phone. If OnePlus hits its sub-と500 price tag with the promised Nord, that means the new phone will cost at least least8 less than oneplus200. So how does oneplus save money without sacrificing too much quality features like making the oneplus Nord appeal to budget-conscious shoppers? This may explain the use of something other than the top-of-the-line Snapdragon 8 chipset with OnePlus8 and Oneplus865pro. Wireless charging could also be a sacrifice at the OnePlus Nord's altar of cost awareness. (The OnePlus8Pro was able to charge wireless, but the OnePlus8 was not able to charge.

OnePlus can pick multiple cameras with OnePlus Nord, but that's hardly an unusual feature these days for budget phones. For example, the Moto G Stylus has 3 rear lenses, and the price of that phone isド299. But not all lenses are created in the same way, so oneplus Nord expects to stay true to its budget roots by sticking to more common arrays like the main sensor and wide-angle camera while avoiding expensive components like telephoto lenses.

How OnePlus distinguishes the OnePlus Nord from its expensive flagship will be revealed later this month.

One of the ways that the OnePlus8 series phones stood out from the other best Android phones was that the display refresh rate was fast, with OnePlus8 at 90Hz and OnePlus8Pro at 120Hz. We make an important bet that 120Hz is off the OnePlus Nord table, but OnePlus, contrary to convention, is able to feature a 90Hz display on budget phones (even in the current iPhone11 lineup, most smartphones have a refresh rate of 60Hz. That will certainly make the OnePlus Nord stand out from other budget offerings. So far, phones that can refresh the screen quickly tend to be expensive flagships like the Pixel4 and Galaxy S20, as well as gaming phones like the ROG Phone2. OnePlus8Lite/OnePlus Z Back in the day Some rumors suggested that OnePlus was looking at a 90Hz refresh rate for its budget phone, so we'll see if there's any truth to that chatter. In a "new beginning" video that featured the OnePlus Nord, OnePlus described Nord more like a product line than just a phone. An attractive-priced smartphone will lead the way for OnePlus Nord, but it's not just the phone that has been released under the nord name. Instead, OnePlus, in the words of CEO Pete Lau, sees this as "an exciting new chapter for OnePlus." "The spirit of 'Never Settle' is centered on sharing the best technology and products with the world, but it's also about challenging yourself and going beyond the comfort zone.

So what does that mean when it comes to other products that OnePlus might introduce as part of Nord's efforts? With the new Nord coming next week, a pair of earbuds could also be in the works. Before the Nord event at the end of the 6th month, rumors flowed about a new OnePlus wireless earbuds that could rival Apple's AirPods. It is likely that they will soon be able to see the light of day.

OnePlus has also entered the TV business producing sets for the Indian market. Just this Thursday (May 7), the company announced a new range of TVs highlighted by the OnePlus TV U2, a 55-inch 4K set that runs on Android TV OS. It costs 49,999 rupees in India, or about6668 based on the current conversion rate. Nord-branded TVs could be part of OnePlus's plans and could be cheaper, but they will be in the United States, a country where OnePlus has not launched a TV
