While that doesn't tell us very much, OnePlus also announced that the Nord 2 would be the company's first phone to feature a MediaTek processor — more precisely, the MediaTek Dimensity 1200 AI.

"We've worked with MediaTek to build an exclusive AI-enhanced experience that takes photography, display tech, and gaming to a new dimension," the company said.
