OnePlus Nord was recently confirmed to pack quad rear cameras and dual front camera setup.

Accompanying the 48-megapixel camera, there will be an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera, a 5-megapixel depth camera, and a macro sensor, the executive added. It was also noted that the dual front camera setup would include a 32-megapixel primary selfie camera.

The development was shared on the company forum by OnePlus Nord Imaging Director Simon Liu. He also noted that there's an ultra-wide camera with 105-degree field-of-view accompanying the 32-megapixel main selfie camera.

"Both of Nord's front-facing cameras come with algorithms that automatically leverage the power of AI and long exposure technology to brighten up selfies and reduce noise in low light," Liu explained.
