OnePlus has been hinting at the features and specifications of the Nord 2 5G in India, as it is set to debut today at 7:30 PM IST. The Nord 2, for those of you unaware, is the successor to the original Nord that was launched in the country in the month of July.

A new report claims that the company on Thursday morning discontinued the original Nord in India, with the report, coming from BGR India stating that the mid-range OnePlus handset was available for purchase until stocks lasted and, now, it is not on sale anymore, owing to the launch of its successor.

This is big news since it hints at a similar and, at most, slightly higher pricing and the discontinuation of a one-year-old model hints at OnePlus’ wish to not impede the sales of the new device, as some users might have expected for the price of the original Nord to go down, at which point they would swoop in and buy the same.

What Do We Know About the OnePlus Nord 2 5G?

In case you missed it, the Nord 2 5G is set to feature multiple upgrades in comparison to the original Nord, both in terms of hardware and main features.

OnePlus recently launched the Nord CE 5G, which featured core features of the Nord at a lower price, so this move seems quite tactical and not related to the supply chain issues that are plaguing most smartphone brands.
