- The
OnePlus Nord 2 is the company’s upcoming smartphone, slotted in the mid-range, just like its predecessor. - Some
OnePlus Nord 2 renders suggest that it could feature the same design language that we have seen on theOnePlus 9 series. - This could also be the first OnePlus smartphone to launch with a MediaTek chipset in India.
Going by the leaked OnePlus Nord 2 renders OnePlus seems to be continuing with the design language that is seen on the OnePlus 9 series. The rear camera module sports a prominent look, with noticeable outlines for the two main cameras.
The front of the phone is similar, too, with a punch-hole notch on the top left and thin bezels on the top, left and right sides. The bottom has a chin, but it is thin enough to maintain the modern thin-bezel look.
Apart from the camera module design, the leaked renders also show off the USB Type-C port, speaker grille and SIM card tray.
One of the biggest changes as far as OnePlus’ India strategy is concerned is the decision to use a MediaTek chipset instead of a Qualcomm one. The Nord 2 is said to be powered by the Dimensity 1200 chipset, paired with 8GB of RAM. Some benchmarks suggest that the Dimensity 1200’s performance is comparable with the Snapdragon 865.
The triple camera module on the back could house a 50MP primary camera along with an 8MP ultrawide angle snapper and a 2MP depth sensor. The punch-hole notch on the front of the phone could house a 32MP selfie camera.
There’s no 3.5mm audio jack to be seen in these renders. Notably, OnePlus had brought it back with the Nord CE 5G. Other than that, reports suggest that the Nord 2 could be powered by a 4,500mAh battery.
