OnePlus Nord Special Edition accidentally revealed
OnePlus 8T pricing tipped ahead of launch
OnePlus 8T set to launch later today
OnePlus Nord Special Edition was accidentally revealed ahead of its official launch alongside the OnePlus 8T and new TWS earbuds later tonight. Moreover, the pricing of the OnePlus 8T has also been tipped courtesy of an advertisement that went live, revealing the starting price of the upcoming phone. OnePlus 8T has been teased heavily in the heads up to the launch with its key features already out in the open.
According to a post on OnePlus Forums that seemingly went live ahead of schedule, the OnePlus Nord Special Edition has been revealed and will allegedly be released in the Gray Ash finish. The forum post was taken down almost immediately but a cached copy gave us a look at the Nord’s new colour without revealing too much about the new finish.

Previous teasers have hinted that the new Special Edition of the Nord could have a textured finish that’s reminiscent of the sandstone finish, however, from the one image that was revealed it looks like a glossy finish after all. Nevertheless, OnePlus will reveal everything there is to know about this Special Edition Nord later tonight.
