OnePlus made a sensational debut in the smartphone market with ‘flagship killer’ tagline for the OnePlus One phone in 2014. On Friday, the Carl Pei who is one of the co-founders of OnePlus reposted OnePlus One’s announcement tweet from 2014 along with text that read, “It’s been a while…” The handset had launched with an impressive price tag of $299. Probably, the tweet could be hinting the price of the OnePlus Z (or OnePlus Nord) mid-range 5G phone that is expected to debut next month.

The OnePlus One came with a price tag of $299 for its 16 GB storage version. The higher 64 GB model came with a pricing of $349. Recently, the specifications of the upcoming mid-ranger from the company were spotted in a survey site in India. The listing didn’t confirm the name of the device. However, its details matched with the rumored specs of the OnePlus Z. The listing stated that the phone is priced at Rs. 24,990 (~$328).
Hence, there is a possibility that the OnePlus Nord could be priced around $299 to $349 or under $399. If it arrives with a similar pricing, it could be a good rival for the iPhone SE 2020 that is available for $399 in the market.
OnePlus Z (OnePlus Nord) specifications
The OnePlus Z survey listing revealed that it will have a 6.55-inch S-AMOLED display that offers Full HD+ resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate. The Snapdragon 765 is said to power the device with 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage.
It may come with a 16-megapixel front camera and a 64-megapixel + 16-megapixel + 2-megapixel triple camera setup on its rear. The handset may house a 4,300mAh battery with 30W fast charging support.
It is still unclear whether the handset will debut as OnePlus Z or OnePlus Nord. Rumors have it that it may debut on July 10 in India.
