OnePlus has uploaded a video on YouTube, which depicts the manual assembly of the Nord smartphone by co-founder Carl Pei.
Various components are fitted within the handset's casing, including nifty additions such as copper heat dissipation pipe to keep the device cool during gaming.
Interestingly, the video is referred to as "tear-up" instead of a "teardown" and showcases which things should go exactly where.
