The OnePlus Nord N200 5G is the most affordable smartphone OnePlus has ever released, bringing 5G connectivity to budget buyers at a starting price of just $239.99 (approximately Rs 17,600). Launched exclusively in the US market, the Nord N200 5G sits at the entry level of the popular OnePlus Nord lineup and packs a surprisingly capable spec sheet for its price point.
OnePlus Nord N200 5G Price and Availability
OnePlus priced the Nord N200 5G at $239.99, which converts to roughly Rs 17,600. The phone launched with a single storage configuration — 4GB of RAM paired with 64GB of internal storage — and will be available exclusively through the OnePlus website starting June 25. At launch, only the US market is confirmed; OnePlus has not announced release plans for India or other regions. The handset ships in a single colour option: Blue Quantum, which is available in both matte and glossy back finishes.
OnePlus Nord N200 5G Specifications
Despite its budget positioning, the Nord N200 5G covers the essentials well. The display is a generous 6.49-inch Full HD+ panel running at a smooth 90Hz refresh rate. Under the hood sits Qualcomm's Snapdragon 480 — the brand's most affordable 5G-capable chipset — ensuring reliable next-generation network support without pushing the price higher. The 64GB of onboard storage is expandable via a microSD card, giving buyers a path to more space as needed.

Camera and Battery Performance
The rear camera system on the OnePlus Nord N200 5G uses a triple-camera arrangement whose physical layout echoes the OnePlus Nord N100. The primary shooter is a 13-megapixel lens, supplemented by a 2-megapixel macro lens for close-up shots and a 2-megapixel monochrome sensor for depth and black-and-white photography. Selfie duties fall to a 16-megapixel front camera, which is a notably generous resolution for a phone in this price bracket.
On the battery front, OnePlus fitted the Nord N200 5G with a large 5000mAh cell — a capacity more commonly found in mid-range and upper-mid-range devices. Charging is handled at 18W, which is fast enough to top up the big battery in a reasonable timeframe. Connectivity is well-rounded: buyers get 5G, 4G LTE, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS/A-GPS, a USB Type-C port, and a 3.5mm headphone jack — a feature increasingly rare even on budget phones. Authentication is handled by a side-mounted fingerprint sensor.
Where the Nord N200 5G Fits in the OnePlus Lineup
OnePlus introduced its Nord sub-brand in India in July 2020 with the original OnePlus Nord, and subsequently expanded it with the more affordable OnePlus Nord CE 5G — described at the time as the company's thinnest phone. The Nord N200 5G goes a step further by undercutting both predecessors on price, making it the cheapest OnePlus handset to date. While the Nord CE 5G targeted the Indian market, the Nord N200 5G appears aimed squarely at cost-conscious US consumers who want 5G without crossing the $250 threshold.
