The smartphone has already surfaced on the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) website. The device reportedly has Ivan codename and model number IV2201. All this also suggests that we may get to see the launch of the OnePlus Nord CE 2. This will be just a few days after the Galaxy S22 series launch.

Leaks have also suggested that the smartphone could price around Rs. 24,000-28,000 range in the country. OnePlus Nord 2 CE may feature a 6.4-inch AMOLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate, as per previous leaks. Although the moniker is not confirmed, leaks are hinting towards the same. In terms of processor, it might power on MediaTek Dimensity 900 5G processor with anywhere between 6GB to 12GB of RAM. We can also expect 128GB and 256GB storage options as well.
Furthermore, it may ship with Android 12-based OxygenOS 12. However, please remember that the upcoming unified OS from OnePlus and OPPO is expected to debut on the OnePlus 10 series. From the leaks, it is possible that OnePlus Nord 2 CE will not offer an alert slider similar to Nord CE. OnePlus Ivan will feature a 3.5mm audio jack and a stereo speaker setup. The frame is plastic, with Gorilla Glass protecting the display and rear panel. We can also expect a thick chin bezel and a corner punch-hole cutout for the selfie camera.

The phone might launch in early 2022, possibly by the end of January or mid-February. It gets more value here as Max Jambor shared a possible launch date of the OnePlus Nord 2 CE as February 11, 2022. This makes sense considering the phone has already received the BIS certification.
