OnePlus 8 Lite? OnePlus Z? And now, the past couple of weeks have seen us refer to the upcoming affordable OnePlus phone as “OnePlus Nord” or “Nord by OnePlus” on social media. The Chinese giant has been teasing this new smartphone series for long and has today confirmed its name. The upcoming OnePlus mid-ranger will officially be called “OnePlus Nord”. Not just that, we also got our first glimpse at this smartphone.

The company revealed the basics about OnePlus Nord in the first episode called “New Beginnings” of its short, four-part documentary over on IGTV.

In addition to the design, the first episode in the documentary series has also set a bar for price expectations. OnePlus co-founder and CEO Pete Lau reveals, “Nord will be our first product under $500 [around Rs. 37,750] in recent years. For OnePlus and the whole team, it’s a massive challenge.”

The company did not divulge any of the hardware specs in the IGTV video. However, if rumors are to be believed, OnePlus Nord will include a 90Hz AMOLED display. It will arrive with the Snapdragon 765G chipset with up to 8GB RAM and 256GB storage powering this device. We also expect to see a 4,000mAh battery pack with 30W Warp charging in tow.
