OnePlus made the Nord CE 3 Lite official earlier this month, and in the meantime we've heard that it would launch in the US under a different name: Nord N30. Now that seems to be pretty much confirmed, since a Nord N30 5G bearing one of the model numbers associated with the Nord CE 3 Lite has just been listed by the Google Play Console.
That strongly suggests a US launch, and
the name is confirmed. Furthermore, the listing reveals that the Nord N30 will
be powered by the Snapdragon 695 SoC, and guess what - the Nord CE 3 Lite has
the same chip! Not just that, but the same amount of RAM (8GB) is involved too,
and the screen resolution (1080x2400) is identical. What are the odds?
The Nord N30 runs Android 13, just like
the Nord CE 3 Lite. If we assume the two are 100% identical, then expect the
Nord N30 to pack a 6.72-inch 120 Hz LCD touchscreen, 128 or 256GB of expandable
storage, a 108 MP main rear camera flanked by a 2 MP macro cam and a 2 MP depth
sensor, a 16 MP selfie snapper, and a 5,000 mAh battery with 67W charging
support.
Now that it's listed in the Google Play
Console, the Nord N30's launch definitely isn't far off.
