OnePlus Nord 6 global launch rumored to be delayed

Unlike Motorola and Samsung, OnePlus doesn't have a vast portfolio of mid-range options — at least not in the US. With the OnePlus Nord 6, a global version of the already released in China Turbo 6 series, fans were hoping for a battery beast at an affordable price. However, a new leak indicates that they may have to wait a bit longer.

OnePlus Nord 6 delay: is this for real? 

Highly reliable tipster Yogesh Brar shared some bad news on X today (Feb 4). Apparently, the OnePlus Nord 6 (model CPH2795), which was initially expected to launch globally sometime in March, might have been pushed to April. 

The leaker also claims there are no signs of the OnePlus Nord CE 6, suggesting that either the phone won't be released at all or there are simply no spec leaks yet. 

Since the CE (Core Edition) series isn't typically released in the US,  this is hardly a heartbreaker for North American readers. Usually, OnePlus targets European and Asian markets for that lineup.


How credible is this information? While Brar doesn't often provide leaks that turn out incorrect, the lack of explanation for the supposed delay — and the absence of any official statement from OnePlus — may leave some users skeptical. 

This isn't the first time Brar has suggested the OnePlus Nord 6 is getting delayed. In a comment on a January 10 X post, the leaker claimed that the device was supposed to land in February but has been pushed to March. If true, this could signal there are some problems behind the scenes. 

OnePlus Nord 6: what we know so far

Regardless of the delay rumors, some spec details have already surfaced for the upcoming mid-ranger. Recently, a Geekbench listing (under model CPH2795) revealed the OnePlus Nord 6 processor, indicating it'll come with a Snapdragon 8s Gen 4. The same SoC is used in the flagship Nothing Phone (3).

This processor is designed to give you a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3-level performance, providing enough potential for casual gaming, daily use, and some multitasking. We'll have to wait and see how OnePlus balances performance, thermals, and sustained loads, but benchmark tests in the Nothing Phone (3) review show there's room for excitement.
