OnePlus was rumored to introduce a number of Nord phones in India, and as a step ahead on this route, the company has now announced that it will launch the long-rumored OnePlus Nord CE 2 5G on February 17 in India. OnePlus has also teased the design of the device via its official Twitter announcement post. Here’s a look at the details.
The tweet, while revealing the Nord CE 2 5G launch date, gives us a glimpse at what it will look like. We can see that the phone will come with a OnePlus 9-like design and will feature a vertically-arranged camera hump that will house two big camera housings. A small camera housing along with an LED flash was also spotted. The rear camera design also looks akin to the Realme GT Neo 2.

We don’t have any official details yet but there are a few rumors to look at. It is speculated that the OnePlus Nord CE 2 5G, which is touted to be something “#ALittleMoreThanExpected,” will feature a 6.4-inch AMOLED display with support for a 90Hz refresh rate. It is said to be powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 900 chipset, making it the second Nord to get a MediaTek SoC after the Nord 2. The phone might come equipped with up to 8GB of RAM and up to 256GB of storage.
Moreover, you can expect to find three cameras at the back, including a 64MP main snapper, an 8MP ultra-wide camera, and a 2MP macro camera. A 16MP front camera is expected too. A 4,500mAh battery with support for 65W fast charging can also be on the list. The phone will most likely run OxygenOS 12 based on Android 12.
