A new OnePlus Nord N-series phone is on its way soon. OnePlus has revealed few details about its upcoming Nord N300, would fall under the budget segment with fast 33W wired charging and could be released in India with different name. Company spokesperson Spenser Blank says that the device is coming to North America next month, where it will follow up the very good OnePlus N200.
The Nord N300 is a successor to last year’s Nord N200. It certainly couldn’t compete with flagship phones, but at $240, it was tough to beat. With an excellent display, long-lasting battery life, and decent performance from its Snapdragon 480 processor, it set a gold standard for what you could expect from cheap 5G smartphones.
The company is offering only a few initial details about the N300 right now, and its price tag isn’t one of them. Of course, OnePlus’ own flagships charge much faster than 33W, including the ridiculously fast 125W charging on the 10T.
We also know that the OnePlus N300 will use a MediaTek processor — the first North American OnePlus device to do so — and that, like the N200, it will feature a screen with up to 90Hz refresh rate. That should make for smoother animations and scrolling than your standard 60Hz display, which is far more common under $300.
The first official render shared by OnePlus also shows off a refined design that pulls from this year’s excellent Nord N20 5G, which we praised as one of the best budget phones you can buy today.
