OnePlus Nord sold out in a flash in first pre-orders

OnePlus is yet to confirm the launch date of its upcoming OnePlus Nord mid-ranger since it is busy building its hype. OnePlus recently confirmed that the OnePlus Nord is fueled by Snapdragon 765G. Most of its other specs are under wraps. Still, the smartphone was made available for pre-orders in Europe on July 1 and it was sold out in a flash. The company had only made available 100 units of the device for the first pre-orders. The Chinese firm will be carrying out the pre-orders again in the second and third week of this month.
