OnePlus Nord 2T

OnePlus has announced two new phones on the 19th of May in Europe: Nord 2T 5G and Nord CE 2 Lite 5G. The 2T has an upgraded SoC and faster charging; the Dimensity 1200 of the Nord 2 versus the Dimensity 1300 of the Nord 2T. The Nord 2T can also charge with 80W (this is 65W for the Nord 2). Remarkably, this is the first time OnePlus uses a T-version for their Nord phones. It lacks a headphone jack, which the Nord CE 2 Lite does have. The price of the Nord 2T is €399 for the base 8GB/128GB variant. That's the same price as the previous Nord (e.g. Nord 1 and 2)-phones. The 12GB/256GB variant is €499. The Nord 2T will be released next week.

OnePlus Nord Buds

OnePlus announced their first TWS-earbuds in the Nord line-up: the Nord Buds. They're budget earbuds and don't have active noise cancellation. They are IP55-rated and thus protect against water splashes. The earbuds have 12.4mm drivers and it has four microphones to reduce to filter away background noise. The earbuds have a 41mAh battery per earbud, while the case is a 480mAh one. The 41mAh batteries can last up to 7 hours, according to OnePlus. The case makes it up to 30 hours of total battery life. The earbuds charge with 2.75W. OnePlus says you can charge your earbuds for 10 minutes and then listen to music for 5 hours. The Nord Buds have a low latency mode that reduces latency to 94ms, but do mind that this feature is only available on OnePlus phones. The Nord Buds cost €49.
