OnePlus and Nord elements are integrated into the maze.

“Since 1980, PAC-MAN has brought fun to players all over the world with its very intuitive gameplay, distinct art style, and colorful personality.

Nord 2 Pac-Man Edition Design And Specifications

The alert slider of the OnePlus Nord 2 Pac-Man Edition sports the same dark blue color as the TURN-TO-BLUE, vulnerable ghosts from Pac-Man that appear when the player eats a POWER PELLET. The OnePlus Nord 2 Pac-Man Edition comes with a DIY Pac-Man phone holder, featuring popular characters from the arcade classic. 

The holder’s design is inspired by the famous Penrose stairs and symbolizes Pac-Man’s iconic gameplay loop.

The custom OxygenOS gets a retro makeover with the OnePlus Nord 2 Pac-Man Edition, starting with the software’s classic icons that have been overhauled with a fun pixelated aesthetic inspired by lo-fi video games.

On the device’s rear sits a 50MP AI triple camera, along with optical image stabilization (OIS) and a Sony IMX766 sensor capable of capturing 56 per cent more light than the original OnePlus Nord. 

The camera system works in tandem with AI-assisted software powered by the OnePlus Nord 2 Pac-Man Edition’s MediaTek Dimensity 1200-AI chipset. The combination of powerful hardware and intelligent software enables features such as Nightscape Ultra, an enhanced version of OnePlus’s Nightscape mode, that allows users to shoot better and brighter photos in conditions as dim as 1 lux.

The phone features a large 4500mAh dual cell battery that can be charged from 0-100 per cent in just 30 minutes, thanks to the power of Warp Charge 65, according to OnePlus. The OnePlus Nord 2 Pac-Man Edition also features a 90Hz Fluid AMOLED display, two 5G SIM card slots and has OxygenOS 11.3 onboard.
