If there’s one noticeable trend about OnePlus’ smartphones, it’s that they keep getting more expensive with each passing year. Then again, it’s not just OnePlus that’s on this trajectory. Flagship phones have started breaching the $1,000 price mark. This is why there’s such big a need for good mid-range options on the market. Samsung already has its A series to address that demand and will probably have a cheaper Galaxy S20 soon. Apple revived the iPhone SE. And now, OnePlus is on the verge of launching the OnePlus Nord.
The OnePlus Nord, A.K.A the OnePlus Z, A.K.A. the OnePlusLiteZThing is shaping up to be a promising mid-range candidate. With its rumored Snapdragon 765 chipset, a dual front-camera system, a 90Hz display, and a 4,300mAh battery, the OnePlus Nord could be quite an attractive buy. So how much will you pay for it? We asked you, our readers, that very question. Out of over 4,400 total votes, the results are in!
