OnePlus has support for up to 4K video recording at 30 frames per second. The camera setup also includes an 8-megapixel ultra-wide camera with a 120-degree field of view and a 2-megapixel monochrome sensor with an f/2.2 lens.

The phone has a triple back camera array with a 50-megapixel Sony IMX766 main sensor and an optical image stabilisation (OIS)-enabled f/1.8 lens. The OnePlus Nord 2T 5G is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 1300 SoC in conjunction with up to 12GB of LPDDR4X RAM. The display with the hole-punch design has HDR10+ certification and is covered by Corning Gorilla Glass 5. OxygenOS 12.1 is installed on top of Android 12. The dual-SIM (Nano) OnePlus Nord 2T 5G is equipped with a 6.43-inch full-HD+ (1,080x2,400 pixels) AMOLED to display with a 20:9 aspect ratio and a 90Hz refresh rate. These are two notable improvements over the Density 1200-AI SoC and 65W charging seen in the Nord 2 5G. However, the new phone has 80W quick charging and an octa-core MediaTek Dimensity 1300 SoC. The OnePlus Nord 2 5G that launched last year gets a modest improvement with the new OnePlus phone.

It appears that OnePlus has held back quite on the upgrades its given the Nord 2T 5G, probably to keep the prices low but its also possible that its saving the big changes for the Nord 3.OnePlus Nord 2T 5G was introduced in India on Friday. With just minor upgrades, the OnePlus Nord 2T 5G really won't appeal to those who already own a Nord 2 but could pose as a good value offering to those looking for a mid-range smartphone with the OnePlus software treatment. There's not much bloatware preinstalled either other than Netflix the app. During my initial use, the interface ran smoothly without any hiccups. The software experience remains OnePlus's biggest selling point. The OnePlus Nord 2T 5G runs OxygenOS 12.1 which is based on Android 12. The company claims it's now possible to charge the phone from 0-100 percent in just 27 minutes. OnePlus has used a MediaTek Dimensity 1300 SoC which is said to bring some performance and imaging improvements. While the capacity of the battery is still the same 4,500mAh, OnePlus has included quicker 80W charging and thankfully, provides the compatible charger in the box. Other than the design, the second big change in the OnePlus Nord 2T 5G is the processor. The OnePlus Nord 2T 5G retains the iconic Alert slider for changing the device's sound profiles The display also has an HDR10+ certification and the phone has stereo speakers, which should be good for watching videos. The optical fingerprint reader is embedded in the display and it works well. It's an AMOLED panel and offers a 90Hz refresh rate, just like before. The size of the display on the OnePlus Nord 2T 5G is still the same as the Nord 2, which is 6.43 inches.
