The news was out this week that premium quality tech brand OnePlus is developing a fourth consumer-friendly smartphone called the OnePlus Nord SE. Subsequent events, however, point to the release of a fifth model soon. The OnePlus Nord 2 is expected to be out by the first quarter of 2021.
Smartphone buff and tipster Max Jambor, with a reputation for posting sometimes undecipherable and prophetic tweets on smartphone brands, just tweeted on the codename ‘Denniz.’
While Jambor did not specifically link OnePlus to the Denniz codename in the tweet, in subsequent communication with Phonearena, he clarified that ‘Denniz’ is the name OnePlus may have chosen for the second-generation smartphone from its stable.
For now, information is scanty on the features and specifications of this new model. However, possible upgrades may include an updated Qualcomm Snapdragon 700-series chipset, an OnePlus 8T-like camera module with more powerful sensors, and possibly a 120Hz Fluid AMOLED display to replace the existing 90Hz display.

The OnePlus Nord 2 is projected to be released in 2021 as a replacement for the original model, launched in July 2020. However, considering the early development milestones that may have been reached, an early announcement could be in the offing.
It is also speculated that the price of this new offering could be in-between that of the OnePlus 9 and the upcoming OnePlus Nord SE.
