A few days ago, OnePlus announced the Nord CE 3 Lite midranger. Definitely an interesting device, with a 108 MP main camera and a 5,000 mAh battery with support for 67W fast charging.
If the specs for these heroes intrigue you and you’re in the US, here’s something interesting spotted by a user on the OnePlus forums. was found to have been rebranded only.
This will be the successor to the Nord N20 from last April, so the timelines certainly match up. Compared to that model, the screen is larger and refreshes at 120 Hz vs. 60 Hz, but it’s LCD instead of AMOLED. As you might expect, the main camera has a higher resolution, and the fingerprint sensor has been moved from its location under the display on the 2022 model to the side embedded in the power button. very similar.
In case you’re wondering how the aforementioned OnePlus forum user figured this out, it all has to do with the archive containing the software build feature files showing the software properties of the Nord CE 3 Lite. These properties include the project ID (internal reference to the device),[設定]>[デバイスについて]The default device name that appears in the , and an indication of which market a particular build is intended for.
As you can see in the screenshot above, the device is named OnePlus Nord CE 3 Lite for the Indian market and OnePlus Nord N30 for the US market. The fact that all files feature the same project ID confirms that the two names are indeed the same device. Additionally, this will be available in the US not only from OnePlus itself, but also from T-Mobile. There’s also the Nord N30’s FCC ID hidden in the software, further confirming this whole scenario.
