If the unveiling of the Nord is not enough of an indication of OnePlus wanting to penetrate other markets, the brand launched two more affordable Nord phones with the Nord N10 and Nord N100. This is the first time OnePlus is actually entering the lower mid-range to entry-level market, and both phones offer compelling features.
The Nord N10 is OnePlus’ most affordable 5G phone with its Snapdragon 690 processor, though you are limited to sub-6Ghz networks. Aside from that, you also get:
- 6GB RAM and 128GB internal storage;
- A 6.49-inch Full HD+ display with 90hz refresh rate, stereo speakers, and a punch-hole for the 16-megapixel selfie snapper;
- A 4300mAh battery with support for OnePlus’ WarpCharge 30T wired charging; and
- Quad rear cameras consisting of a 64-megapixel main snapper, 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera, 2-megapixel depth sensor, and 2-megapixel macro camera.
The Nord N100, on the other hand, is OnePlus’ first foray into the entry-level segment. As a budget offering, the Nord N100 is a 4G device that is powered by a Snapdragon 460 processor. Its features include:
- A 6.52-inch display with stereo speakers and a punch-hole for the 8-megapixel selfie snapper;
- 5000mAh battery with 18w wired charging
- 4GB RAM and 64GB internal storage, with the latter being expandable; and
- A triple rear camera setup consisting of a 13-megapixel main camera and two 2-megapixel cameras: one for depth-sensing and one for macro shots.
The Nord N10 is priced at 349 Euros(~Php 20k) while the Nord N100 is priced at 199 Euros(~Php 11.4k). European pricing is always more expensive, so expect both phones to be priced lower when they become official in the Philippines.
