OnePlus fans, and smartphone fans in general, are all eagerly waiting for the release of the OnePlus 12. The new flagship promises a powerful hardware, improved cameras and much more. While we are eagerly awaiting the release of this phone, OnePlus is working on a new mid-range phone for the Nord series. In fact, this device is not exactly “new”, but it has a “new” name. The company has implemented a rebranding strategy for its own releases. Therefore, it will re-launch the OnePlus Nord 30 as OnePlus Nord N30 SE. Through this article, we will share more details about the new rebranding.
The OnePlus Nord N30 SE has received its certification from the TDRA in the UAE. The certification confirms the name of the phone and give us its model number as well: CPH2605. At first glance, there are no problems, but upon further inspection we notice the familiarity. It shares the same model number with the OnePlus Nord N30, which was launched in North America, and the Nord CE 3 Lite. Therefore, we can conclude that the OnePlus Nord N30 SE is another variant of the same smartphone. The Spider-Man meme fits well here:
