OnePlus has teased the arrival of ‘something new' in India. There is no clarity on what it might be, but given that the OnePlus 9 series was unveiled in March, the company is likely to introduce next-gen OnePlus Nord handsets. Rumours claim that OnePlus may be gearing up to launch the OnePlus Nord 2 and OnePlus Nord CE 5G. These two phones have been leaked in the past and are reported to launch in June. OnePlus may be teasing the arrival of these two phones in India.

The company via the OnePlus India Twitter account shared a cryptic tweet with the words ‘you figure it out'. It seems like the company has used sign language to convey a message that decodes to, ‘Something new is coming'. If our interpretation is correct, the company could be gearing up to launch new products in June.

Recent leaks suggest the arrival of OnePlus Nord 2 and OnePlus Nord CE 5G. The former looks to be the successor of the OnePlus Nord launched last year, whereas the OnePlus Nord CE 5G is reported to be the successor of the OnePlus Nord N10. Both the phones were spotted on BIS certification site recently, hinting at an imminent launch in the Indian market.
