Rumour has it that the OnePlus Nord will be leading with a 48 MP primary camera, not a 64 MP sensor. The device will be rocking five other camera sensors too, including an ultra-wide-angle lens. A retailer has published a listing for the OnePlus Nord too, but it is likely just a placeholder.

OnePlus is set to announce the Nord on July 21, as we reported yesterday. The company has just released the latest part of its "New Beginnings" documentary on its @oneplus.nord Instagram page too in advance of its second pre-order event tomorrow. Now, Android Central claims to have received information from an "OnePlus insider" about the Nord's camera hardware.

Previously, it had been thought that the device would feature a 64 MP primary sensor. However, Android Central claims that OnePlus has opted for a 48 MP sensor instead. There is no word on what sensor will be present, though. Augmented this 48 MP camera will be an 8 MP ultra-wide-angle lens, a 5 MP macro sensor and a 2 MP portrait camera. There will be 32 MP and 8 MP front-facing cameras, too.

Separately, Romanian retailer evoMAG.ro has published a listing for the OnePlus Nord. The retailer has priced the device at RON 2,229.99, which equates to ~US$521 and ~€461 at present exchange rates. OnePlus has stated that the Nord will retail for under US$500 in the US though, so this may well be placeholder pricing. The retailer has also posted a specification sheet, but it appears to have been cobbled together from previous rumours. Similarly, the render of the device is just the one presented by @OnLeaks and 91Mobiles in December.

Unsurprisingly, people have been quick to dismiss the listing. Teased photos of the OnePlus Nord have suggested that the renders presented by @OnLeaks and 91Mobiles are not far off from the final design.
