Though the tweet does not provide more details, a report by Android Authority says it is likely that Lau is teasing the launch of the OnePlus Z/OnePlus Nord. OnePlus co-founder Carl Pei has also posted a few tweets on his social media handle using the same hashtag - #NewBeginnings. In one of his tweets, he even said, "It's time to rock the boat again." A report by Android Central mentions that Carl Pei has also posted a tweet that showed a team of people wearing Avicii t-shirts, which suggests the upcoming device might actually be called the OnePlus Nord. The tweet has now been taken down.The device was earlier referred to as the OnePlus 8 Lite but was later said to be called OnePlus Z.OnePlus Z, an upcoming mid-range device, is expected to come with a 6.55-inch Super AMOLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate.
