The OnePlus Nord CE now shipping in Europe, don’t miss our video review

The OnePlus Nord CE 5G is now available in Europe and can be bought from your local OnePlus.com website. The stores only carry the 8/128 GB and 12/256 GB versions, which cost €330/£300 and €400/£370, respectively.

The cheapest version, the €300 6/128 GB model, is listed as “not available” (or not listed at all in the case of the UK and Irish sites), so that is probably coming at a later date.

The Mi 11 Ultra is a fairly recent release from Xiaomi and the phone initially launched with Android 11 and MIUI 12.5 on top. No official information regarding the beta version of Android 12 has been disclosed so it’s interesting to see the handset making an appearance on Geekbench 5 with the latest Android OS.

Mind you, this is the global version of the device given the model number listed on Geekbench – M2102K1G. This is probably the first sighting of the Mi 11 Ultra running Android 12 and suggests that Xiaomi will soon have more to share about the update.
