OnePlus Nord LE: Literally there is one and only model up for grabs

OnePlus on Thursday (April 8) night made a surprise announcement revealing a brand new OnePlus Nord LE model.

OnePlus Nord LE, wherein LE stands for 'Literally One Only Edition' is up for grabs. But, as the name suggests, the company has manufactured only one such unit.

One lucky winner of the OnePlus contest can get their hands on it. The company is asking fans on Instagram to take a picture of their current phone and share one reason why they want to ditch it for the new OnePlus Nord LE.

"Take a picture of your current smartphone and post it on your Instagram feed – your caption needs to tell us why you want to upgrade to OnePlus Nord. Oh, and don’t forget to include #SwitchToNord in your caption, either," reads OnePlus Nord's official handle on Instagram.

It should be noted that Except for the new colour, the specifications and design of the OnePlus Nord LE is same as the original OnePlus Nord.

The new phone flaunts a gradient finish, which transitions from yellow to blue depending on the angle of the light reflects on the back.
