The OnePlus Nord USA version will be released later this year, a OnePlus executive confirmed. The affordable OnePlus phone is currently available in Europe and India, where it’s priced cheaper than the second-generation iPhone SE that Apple launched earlier this year.
The recently announced OnePlus Nord is one of the best budget phones you can buy right now. The phone costs less than $500 in Europe and India, where it’s available to order and offers decent hardware for that price point. The phone is powered by the Snapdragon 765G mid-range Qualcomm processor that comes with built-in 5G support. Google will reportedly use the same chip for the Pixel 5 this year. The phone also features a large display with a punch-hole dual camera, plenty of memory and storage, a quad-camera lens system on the back, and support for fast wired charging. To keep the costs down, OnePlus cut some of the features available on its more expensive flagships, including wireless charging and water and dust resistance rating.
