More so, including waterproof certification in a device, means it will be very expensive. Considering the OnePlus Nord&#8217;s price range, it is very affordable, which invariably means waterproof certification is not included.<\/p>\n<p>Carl Pei, one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/droidrant.com\/best-oneplus-8-pro-cases\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">co-founders of OnePlus<\/a>, revealed that OnePlus Nord does not come with waterproof certification and does not meet the minimum water-resistance standards.<\/p>\n<p>However, just like other OnePlus devices, the OnePlus Nord can withstand accidental water drench and survive when it falls in water areas like swimming pools, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Even though the OnePlus Nord does not have an official IP rating that guarantees its dust and water resistance, it has all the features and abilities to survive even if it is soaked by rain.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read next:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/techsofar.com\/is-the-samsung-galaxy-a71-waterproof\/\">Is The Samsung Galaxy A71 Waterproof?<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"One of the best things that can give you peace of mind and fulfillment is knowing that your&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":2141,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[128],"tags":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/techsofar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/oneplus-nord-19.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/techsofar.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2139"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/techsofar.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/techsofar.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techsofar.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techsofar.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2139"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/techsofar.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2139\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techsofar.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2141"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/techsofar.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2139"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techsofar.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2139"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techsofar.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2139"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
