OnePlus debuted the OnePlus Nord, a mid-range smartphone after a big gap from OnePlus X. However, the device is available only in select areas like Europe and India. A few days back, the brand officially teased the arrival of a new Nord smartphone. Now, Steve from Onleaks has broken the launch date of the device.
According to Steve, OnePlus will unveil two more Nord smartphones, the Nord N10 5G, and Nord N100 on October 26, at 12 PM GMT. However, he has mentioned N10 as a 5G device but hasn’t included it on N100. This could be an indication that the N100 might be a budget device that got leaked earlier with Snapdragon 460 SoC or a Snapdragon 6 series SoC. But OnePlus hasn’t confirmed anything yet.
That said, Steve has neither revealed the launch place and specs nor the availability. If we recall, an earlier report by Android central broke the news that Nord N10 would be a 5G smartphone. And will launch in the US under $400. As per the report, the device will feature a 6.49-inch FHD+ display with a 90Hz refresh rate. And Snapdragon 690 5G SoC, 6GB RAM,128GB storage, 64MP camera. The N100 could feature a 6.52-inch HD+ display, Snapdragon 460 SoC, 13MP main camera, and 6,000mAh battery.

It all started with a Geekbench score that showed a new OnePlus codenamed BE2028. Later, an XDA finding and a tip by Max J. revealed alleged renders of two new devices under “Billie” with a punch-hole display.
Following that, another Geekbench report hinted an OnePlus phone with the codename “Clover” with an alleged Snapdragon 660/662 SoC could be in the works. Later, an OnePlus device with Snapdragon 460 SoC was spotted on a proprietary source code hinting at the possibility of another device. Additionally, we also saw an 18W charger of OnePlus getting certified by TUV Rheinland.
Looking at all leaks and rumors, we feel Nord N10 will be a 5G device. And N100 could be a 4G device aimed at a cheaper price tag. We can expect more details from OnePlus post the OnePlus 8T launch.
