OnePlus is expected to bring the same memory variant to India. The Nord 2T retails globally in 8GB/128GB and 12GB/256GB configurations. The Core Edition, which aimed to leave the ‘core’ specs untouched while reducing the price, arrived last month for £299 (~$412), so where OnePlus places the Nord 2 relative to both these and the $729 OnePlus 9 should prove interesting when the phone is officially unveiled in 12 days’ time.Nothing Phone (1) versus OnePlus Nord 2T versus Poco F4: Specs, prices in India compared That price bracket is, of course, up in the air at the moment, but the original OnePlus Nord arrived at £379/£469 (it didn’t get a US release, but that’s around $522/$646) when it launched last year. Battery capacity has been tipped to jump from 4,115 mAh to 4,500 mAh 65W charging could feature, but the jury is out on that.

Leaked Nord 2 specs claim the main sensor will see a bump to 50MP, using the same Sony IMX766 sensor found on the OnePlus 9 Pro. Only three rear cameras are tipped for the Nord 2, with the depth or macro sensor potentially dropped. In terms of other specs, it's looking like the Nord 2 won't be a radical departure in terms of design from its predecessor there's likely to be a 6.4-inch FHD AMOLED flat screen with a 90Hz refresh rate and punch-hole selfie camera, and a plain plastic back with a rectangular camera bump on the top left. It will be intriguing to see how these promises bear out, and how the phone fares against other handsets in its price bracket which opt for a Snapdragon SoC instead.

OnePlus said the chip will use AI to help the new phone boost its image and video quality, with automatic color and contrast adjustments promised for photos, and a feature called AI Resolution Boost that will apparently enhance video resolution. OnePlus has already confirmed that the Nord 2 will be abandoning Qualcomm to use MediaTek’s Dimensity 1200-AI chip instead, which isn’t a SoC we’ve encountered before. But the company is taking a new direction with the upcoming handset. That the OnePlus Nord 2 is following up so quickly from the OnePlus Nord CE (the ‘Core Edition’ of the original OnePlus Nord) is a little surprising.
