The OnePlus Nord Lite has been spotted on Geekbench ahead of the OnePlus Nord’s official launch on July 21. This new model of the OnePlus phone is, however, seen with a Snapdragon 690 SoC whereas previous reports and leaks suggested that the OnePlus Nord may be coming with Snapdragon 765/ 765G SoC. It is possible that the OnePlus may come with two new phones which house these respective chipsets. The company is tipped to launch two new phones: OnePlus Nord and OnePlus Nord Lite.
The model listed on the benchmarking website as OnePlus BE2028 and powered by a chipset codenamed as ‘lito’, which is rumored to be the successor of Snapdragon 765/ 765G SoC. However, tipster Mukul Sharma has spotted the Adreno 619 GPU mentioned in the source code, which belongs to the Snapdragon 690 chipset.
So yes, the Lito motherboard indeed resonates to a Snapdragon 765 series chipset, but as @Sudhanshu1414 has mentioned, the GPU here is the Adreno 619, which belongs to the SD690.#oneplus #OnePlusNord #newbeginnings pic.twitter.com/TLixOnDu0o
