One word: Nord.

Carl Pei, and the OnePlus team, are eager to revisit what made OnePlus a fan favorite in the first place, which are good specs at a great price. Originally self-proclaimed as the flagship killer, we’ll see if OnePlus still has it on them. While its latest phones are simply ‘simple’ flagships, the upcoming OnePlus Nord promises to be a quality mid-range phone at an affordable price.

In an interview with Android Authority, Carl Pei explains:

… the OnePlus Nord is our concentrated effort to target more consumers through a more affordable price …
