A new OnePlus Nord on the horizon: design and specs revealed

A new OnePlus smartphone has been spotted in the database of the Chinese certification authority TENAA. The commercial name of the device is unknown, yet we can already take a look at both the design and part of the specifications. Here’s what we know about this mysterious phone, a mid-range that could find space internationally as part of the Nord series.

New OnePlus smartphone certified by TENAA: design and specifications revealed, but not its identity

The device has appeared on TENAA’s portal with the model number PYR110: despite the presence of images and technical details, its identity remains still uncertain. The rear cover houses a squared camera module, containing the sensors and the LED flash, while at the center of the chassis we have the OnePlus logo in full view.

The phone features straight edges and a flat display, a 6.78″ AMOLED panel with 1.5K resolution (2,772 x 1,272 pixels). Below are all the details reported by the Chinese authority.

Some specs, as well as the design, seem to point to OnePlus Nord CE 6 — recently launched in India, but still unreleased in Europe. However, it doesn’t seem to be a rebrand of the latter, but rather a more affordable model with some details in common.

In reality the spec sheet echoes recent rumors about OPPO K15, a device arriving in China soon and appearing in TENAA’s database with the same model code as the OnePlus model (therefore PYR110). The device would be powered by the Snapdragon 6 Gen 5, so the OnePlus-branded cousin should also mount the same SoC.

The same phone, two different brands: the essence of the fusion work that has been talked about for some time, which sees OnePlus and Realme under the direct control of the parent company. In the meantime, it remains to be seen whether this new device will also arrive in the West, presumably as part of the Nord series.
