OnePlus is planning to release its first budget handheld codenamed Clover. Unlike the OnePlus Nord, which is only available in India and Europe, the Clover will be available worldwide for under US$200. Specs include a Snapdragon 460 SoC coupled with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB storage, a 13 +2 +2 MP rear camera setup, 6.52-inch IPS screen with 1560 x 720 resolution and a massive 6000 mAh battery with 18 W fast charging.

The entry-level OnePlus Clover handset previously spoted in the company’s proprietary code and in some Geekbench tests is now confirmed to be real through a spec sheet leaked by the guys over at Android Central.

Starting with the software details, the leaked spec sheet mentions that the Clover will feature the OxygenOS 10 operating system based on the Android 10 release. The budget SoC spotted earlier in the OS code is indeed the 11 nm Snapdragon 460 that packs four ARM Cortex-A73 cores plus four ARM Cortex-A53 cores, all clocked at 1.8 GHz. This SoC also integrates the Adreno 610 GPU.

Since it is an entry-level device, the OnePlus only gets 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage, which can be expanded via a MicroSD card. The camera setup on the back includes a 13 MP main sensor with two small 2 MP sensors. Unfortunately, the spec sheet does not mention anything about the selfie cam sensor. The front display, however, appears to get a 6.52-inch IPS panel with 1560 x 720 resolution.

Other features include a fingerprint sensor on the back, the trusty 3.5 mm audio jack that has become a rare occurrence in the past few years, plus support for 4G, Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.0. As with all OnePlus models, the battery is very generous with 6000 mAh capacity and 18 W fast charging support.

Android Central points out that the OnePlus Clover will be available worldwide, unlike the OnePlus Nord that is only available in India and Europe currently. There is no info regarding availability for now, but the price is expected to be under US$200.
