The OnePlus Nord’s selfie cameras could be one of its best features, thanks to a dual sensor design that will allow it to accommodate even the largest group of friends in the frame.
As seen on the dedicated Nord OnePlus account on Instagram (via Android Central), the new mid-range phone will use an ultra-wide camera with a 105-degree field of view. As you can see in the video below, it is meant to be a replacement for the selfie stick as a way to see more than you would see through a normal angle phone camera at the end of your arm.
The post doesn’t mention the resolution of the cameras, but we’ve leaked and rumored details to fill in the gaps there. The main sensor is believed to be a 32MP camera, while the ultra-wide sensor will be an 8MP model.
Another advance from OnePlus via Instagram has once again confirmed the use of a Snapdragon 765G as the Nord chipset. While this isn’t quite as powerful as the Snapdragon 865 chipset found in OnePlus 8, OnePlus 8 Pro, and many other Android 2020 flagships, it should still offer more than enough power for everyday tasks. Also, it offers 5G if you have a compatible SIM and live in an area with a 5G network.
The rear camera block reportedly consists of a quartet of cameras, including main, ultra-wide, depth and macro sensors, which is much more than you would normally find in a phone that costs less than $ 500. The battery It should be a 4,115 mAh model capable of using OnePlus’ Warp Charge 30T fast charging technology, while the display will be a 6.4-inch, 90Hz AMOLED display.
It’s not just the phone we’ll be seeing at the AR launch event on July 21. OnePlus is also about to launch OnePlus Buds, its first true wireless headphones. We don’t have any definitive information on these, other than that they’re a real confirmed product, but the leaks suggest they will be AirPods-style buds with plastic tips and stems.
OnePlus is targeting Europe for the Nord launch, with no signs of a U.S. launch anytime soon, outside of a limited launch for winners of a competition OnePlus is hosting for American customers. We hope that the phone will finally cross the Atlantic, as it appears to be a powerful rival to the iPhone SE and the rumored Google Pixel 4a.
