OnePlus is set to launch the OnePlus Nord CE 5G tomorrow (June 10). Ahead of it, the original OnePlus Nord from last year is out of stock in India. The device is no longer sold on OnePlus’ website and Amazon India.
The OnePlus Nord released in Q3 2020 as the first-ever OnePlus mid-range smartphone. The device features a 6.44-inch FHD+ 90Hz AMOLED display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G SoC, up tp 12GB RAM as well as 256GB internal storage, 48MP (wide) + 8MP (ultra-wide) + 5MP (depth) + 2MP (macro) quad-camera setup, and 32MP (wide) + 8MP (ultra-wide) dual-selfie cameras.
Other features of the handset include a 4,115mAh battery, 30W fast charging, in-screen fingerprint sensor, and OxygenOS 10.5 based on Android 10 (upgradable to Android 11-based OxygenOS 11).
The phone had been retailing in India for ₹24,999, ₹27,999, and ₹29,999 respectively. Anyway, it is worth noting that the base variant was mostly out of stock since its availability in September.
That said, for unknown reasons, OnePlus has quietly stopped selling the OnePlus Nord in India. As per 91Mobiles, the smartphone might have discontinued in the country ahead of OnePlus Nord CE 5G launch tomorrow.
However, the company is yet to officially confirm it. We might get the answers in a few hours at the OnePlus Summer Launch event.
The discontinuation of the OnePlus Nord is inevitable. That’s because the upcoming OnePlus Nord CE 5G has been confirmed to come with most of the features of the original Nord and some at an even cheaper price tag.
