OnePlus Nord CE 5G could likely take the successor title over OnePlus Nord N10 5G. As per tipster Max Jambor, the upcoming OnePlus Nord budget phone won’t be called OnePlus Nord N1 5G as it was previously reported.
The tipster earlier reported the device to come under the ‘N1’ moniker, however, he now cites that OnePlus has changed the name. Jambor further said that the company using the final name for a phone a month before its debut, which means the supposed OnePlus Nord CE could debut way ahead of the usual launch timeline. To recall, OnePlus Nord N10 was launched in October 2020. It isn’t clear what CE stands for, and besides the new moniker, the tipster didn’t share any information about the upcoming OnePlyss device. However, leaks in the past have given a fair glimpse of the supposed OnePlus Nord CE 5G design and few key aspects.

As mentioned earlier, the OnePlus Nord N10 5G was launched last October with a 6.49-inch FHD+ display, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 690 chipset, 6GB of RAM, 64-megapixel quad-rear camera, and a 4,300mAh battery.
