The Nord lineup from OnePlus this year is a real surprise for smartphone users. OnePlus prepares for the budget segment of the market using Nord phones. The first smartphone was launched in the midrange segment in July and garnered rave reviews. Now, there are rumors that OnePlus will launch two more smartphones before the end of 2020. Reports indicate that one of them will be the Nord N10
OnePlus has not officially mentioned this other than the Instagram teaser released a few weeks ago. But popular tipster Max J, who has a reliable track record for the OnePlus leak, shared a blueprint teaser for the Nord N10 design. The Nord N10 attracts a lot of users from the OnePlus 8T frontline we saw a few weeks ago. It has a similar square camera design and curved edges on the back
OnePlus Nord N10 design leaked
No wonder OnePlus borrows the design of the 8T for its budget offer. The Nord N10 is said to be the cheapest OnePlus smartphone of all time. It will be released in several markets including India and US. Previous leaks for the Nord N10 indicate that it will be a 5G smartphone using Qualcomm's budget segment chips. However, it may come on the market with traditional OnePlus features
The Nord N10 will be available with a 5G Snapdragon 690 SoC chipset. This is Qualcomm's chip for offering entry level smartphones. This chip is paired with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. Of course, it is expected to hit the market with the OnePlus Oxygen OS interface. It remains to be seen whether the OnePlus Oxygen OS 11, which is based on the latest Android 11, will be avilable.
The Nord N10 will also feature a 6.4-inch AMOLED display with 1080 pixel resolution and 90 Hz refresh rate. The 64 - megapixel main camera for the entry level OnePlus phone is rumored to come with an 8 - megapixel ultra wide camera. It is expected that there will be two more cameras for depth and macro duties. The battery capacity of this handset has not been revealed yet.
However, there are rumors that an 18W fast charging system will be introduced. The Nord N100 is expected to launch in November along with the OnePlus Nord N10. Unless it decides to cut the OnePlus price, it will continue to sell at the current Nord price of Rs 24,999.
