OnePlus is now known for launching series of affordable Smartphones, and the latest is the OnePlus Nord 2 5G with Dimensity 1200-AI.
The OnePlus Nord 2 5G is the official successor to the first-true original Nord that was introduced last year.

OnePlus Nord 2 5G sports a single 32-megapixel in-screen camera with a Sony IMX615 sensor but lacks the Nord’s extra ultra-wide lens.
As with the case of the dual to single selfie shooter, and now instead of a four-camera system on the first Nord, the successor comes with three camera sensors.
It starts with the 50-megapixel Sony IMX766 sensor, which is the same sensor used for the OnePlus 9 Pro‘s camera and larger than the Sony IMX586 sensor used on the first original Nord.
The main camera comes with optical image stabilization for shake-free shots and videos and Digital Overlap HDR (DOL-HDR) helping synthesize exposure data from two images into one end shot.
Accompaning these camera sensor are 8-megapixels 119° ultra-wide snapper and a 2-megapixels monochrome sensor.
