The OnePlus Nord 2 is one of the most unique smartphones released by OnePlus so far. And this does not mean that the device has a unique design or something like that. The fact that makes it quite unique for OnePlus is that this is the first and only smartphone with OnePlus branding that ships with a MediaTek Dimensity 1200. OnePlus has worked alongside the Taiwanese chipmaker to deploy the handset with a tweaked version of the chipset called Dimensity 1200 AI. The company also had to make several adjustments to combine OxygenOS with the MediaTek chip. After all, after long years using Qualcomm Snapdragon chips, it’s easy to understand that company had to tweak its software to extract the maximum performance of this chipset.
The handset is giving another important step in the direction of the perfect software experience. The brand already rolled out a few updates with improvements, bug fixes, and security patches. Now, the OnePlus Nord 2 units in India are receiving a new firmware update that comes to improve the battery life and also enhance the gaming experience. The new update carries OxygenOS 11.3.A.13 and arrives with the latest November security patch. Meanwhile, users in Europe are receiving the OxygenOS 11.3.A.12 that still carries the old October security patch.
