This midrange OnePlus phone was a steal at full price – now it's on sale

Midrange smartphones like the OnePlus Nord N30 are a nice alternative to high-end devices like Samsung’s Galaxy S25. They provide a premium experience without the exorbitant cost. And now, thanks to a new deal, this already affordable phone is even cheaper.

Typically, the device costs $300. But by entering the code “LUCKY25” at checkout, you shave $70 off the Nord N30’s price tag, making it a $230. What’s more, OnePlus is offering a free gift to shoppers. You can pick either a Sandstone Bumper Case for the phone or a pair of Wired Digital Type-C Earphones. Be aware that the phone only comes in a single configuration. It’ll have 8GB of RAM, 128GB of storage space and be available in Chromatic Gray.

OnePlus’ Nord N30 is a top-notch midrange smartphone originally launched in 2023. In his review, ZDNET’s Matthew Miller praised the mobile device’s features. The N30 sports a high-resolution 6.72-inch AMOLED touchscreen with an adaptive refresh rate of 120Hz. All this tech ensures the display consistently outputs vibrant images and fluid videos for immersive media consumption.

It runs on a Qualcomm Snapdragon 695, which isn’t the most powerful chipset in the world. However, when combined with the “fairly stock OxygenOS UI,” it delivers a smooth performance. Phone calls sound “perfect,” noted Miller, and the camera system is decent for its price range; just don’t expect it to compete with flagship smartphones.

The free earphones mentioned earlier plug directly into the Nord N30’s USB-C port; however, if you want the case, the phone does have a 3.5 audio jack for accepting other headphones.

Joining OnePlus’ trade-in program could net you even more savings. If you own a 128GB Nord N20 5G, you can trade in the old phone and remove an extra $23 off the Nord N30’s price tag.
