Notably, it will be the first Nord smartphone to offer a 16GB RAM configuration, with an expected base price of around ₹33,000 in India.

The Nord CE 3 is a more affordable variant of the Nord 3, featuring toned-down specifications. It is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 782G SoC and a 5,000mAh battery. Like the Nord 3, it supports 80W charging and comes with a 120Hz AMOLED display, offering a superior viewing experience compared to the LCD panel on the Nord CE 2. The rear camera setup also consists of triple cameras, with the main camera featuring a 50-megapixel Sony IMX 890 sensor with OIS. The Nord CE 3 is presented in an “Aqua Surge” color, resembling the teal blue of the original Nord phone.

Lastly, the Nord Buds 2R resembles the original Nord Buds in design, featuring silicone tips and short stems. However, the stems now have a rounded finish, providing an aesthetically pleasing look. The earbuds boast 12.4mm drivers and Bluetooth 5.3. OnePlus claims they offer 38 hours of backup with the case. The anticipated price for the OnePlus Nord Buds 2R is ₹2,299.
