Conclusion
OnePlus Nord 2 (5G) has yet to confirm the reports regarding the Nord 2 explosion. This particular issue did not occur with the flagship OnePlus 6T. The company has already sent a replacement user and has upgraded the user to the stable update of Android 9 Pie. Unfortunately, we did not get any information whether it was because of the user or something else. The report stated that photos of the unit were sent to the owner. And only he knew the cause of the malfunction.
We should expect the company to release an official statement shortly after handing over the units to users. Also, a replacement unit is expected to be sent as well. Anyway, it looks like the issue has been resolved. And we can expect the device to be ready for customers soon.
