The hype surrounding OnePlus’ upcoming
Nord series is reaching its tipping point as we’re expecting the phone to debut
next week. The latest promo video finally gives us a brief look at one of the
devices for a split second which also confirms the design. At around the
1-minute mark, we get a close up of the phone’s front which shows the display
with its dual punch holes and also reveals the right-hand-side which features
the alert slider and power button.
The ad then quickly transitions to a shot
of the phone’s back where we see the thin rectangular camera cutout, OnePlus
logo in the middle and the LED flash which is separated from the camera
modules. In addition to the video, we also got confirmation that the device
will be powered by the Snapdragon 765G chipset straight from the OnePlus Nord
page on Amazon India. This is hardly a surprise as One Plus co-founder Carl Pei
revealed the news in an interview earlier this week.
It remains to be seen how many phones will
be announced by OnePlus, given that Nord is a series and not just one device.
The only certain thing is that the Nord series will be competing in the
midrange segment where OnePlus started its journey back in 2014.
