OnePlus Nord 3 5G price in India: OnePlus has officially revealed the first look of the upcoming OnePlus Nord 3 5G smartphone.
The smartphone manufacturer has unveiled the back panel design of the upcoming smartphone.
The first look has been shared by the OnePlus COO and President Kinder Liu.
OnePlus Nord 3: Expected India price
The upcoming OnePlus Nord 3 is expected to be priced under Rs 30,000 in India. The company’s original Nord series phones are targeted at those who have a budget in a similar price range and so, the next generation phone is also expected to cost under Rs 30,000.
OnePlus Nord 3 Will Cost More than Rs 30,000
According to the tweet, the OnePlus Nord 3 will come in two variants. The base model will come with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. This is said to cost Rs 32,999.
On the other hand, the top-of-the-line model with 16GB RAM and 256GB storage is set to be priced at Rs 36,999.
The tipster also says that his source is 90% sure about this price, which means, that there could be a slight change in the actual pricing as well. Further, if OnePlus brings some bank offers, the pricing could also vary based on that.
For context, the OnePlus Nord 2 from 2021 was launched at Rs 27,999 for the base model with 6GB+128GB combo, the 8GB+128GB variant was priced at Rs 29,999 and the 12GB+256GB model was priced at Rs 24,999.
So, going by the current tipped price, the 8GB model is all set to get a Rs 3,000 price bump in comparison.
