As previously seen in the leaked renders, the new OnePlus Nord N20 5G features a boxy design like the iPhone 13 lineup. It sports a triple camera setup on the back consisting of a 64MP primary camera paired with monochrome and macro sensors. Over on the front, the device has a 6.43-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a hole-punch cutout in the top left corner for the 16MP selfie shooter and a chunky lower bezel.

Being an affordable device, the OnePlus Nord N20 5G doesn’t feature OnePlus’ iconic alert slider. But it does have a power button on the right edge and a volume rocker on the left edge next to the SIM card tray. The device also features a USB Type-C port at the bottom next to a speaker grille and an in-display fingerprint scanner.

On the inside, the OnePlus Nord N20 5G packs Qualcomm’s 5G-enabled Snapdragon 695 SoC paired with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. The device includes a microSD card slot for expansion up to 512GB. A respectable 4,500mAh battery rounds off the hardware and offers support for 33W wired fast charging with the included charging brick.

Pricing & Availability

The OnePlus Nord N20 5G will go on sale in the US starting April 28. It will be available through T-Mobile and Metro in a single blue colorway. The device will be available for $282 through both carriers when bought outright. But you can get it for free if you add a line via 24 months of bill credits. The Nord N20 5G will also be available through Amazon, Best Buy, and other retailers later in the summer.
