The OnePlus Nord 5 and Nord CE 5 are scheduled to launch in India on July 8, with availability confirmed through Amazon. A dedicated landing page for the Nord 5 is already live on the platform, showcasing glimpses of its design, available colour variants, key specifications, and other highlights. In contrast, information surrounding the Nord CE 5 remains limited, with the brand yet to disclose many specifics about the device.
OnePlus Nord 5 and OnePlus Nord CE 5 display:
Rumors suggest that the upcoming OnePlus Nord 5 will feature a flat OLED display with a 1.5K resolution and a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. Although the precise screen dimensions remain unconfirmed, it’s possible that OnePlus may stick with the Nord 4’s 6.74-inch panel or opt for a slightly larger display to accommodate a higher-capacity battery. The device is also expected to include an in-screen fingerprint scanner for biometric authentication.
According to recent leaks, the OnePlus Nord CE 5 is likely to feature a 6.77-inch flat OLED screen, supporting a refresh rate of up to 120Hz for smooth visuals.
OnePlus Nord 5 and OnePlus Nord CE 5 camera:
The OnePlus Nord 5 is expected to feature the same Sony LYT-700 sensor for its main rear camera that was previously seen in the premium OnePlus 13 lineup. For selfies and video calls, the phone will reportedly sport a 50MP front-facing camera equipped with the JN5 sensor. On the back, the primary 50MP lens will be paired with an 8MP ultra-wide-angle camera offering a wide 116-degree field of view.
The device is expected to come equipped with a dual rear camera system, including a 50MP main sensor and an 8MP ultra-wide lens. For selfies and video chats, the front may house a 16MP camera.
OnePlus Nord 5 and OnePlus Nord CE 5 chipset:
As revealed by an official teaser on Amazon, the upcoming OnePlus Nord 5 will be powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset, promising robust performance and efficient multitasking. To ensure optimal thermal management during heavy usage, the device will also feature a large 7,300 mm² cooling chamber.
In terms of performance, the device is likely to be equipped with the MediaTek Dimensity 8350 Ultimate chipset — the same processor previously featured in the Infinix GT 30 Pro and Motorola Edge 60 Pro.
OnePlus Nord 5 and OnePlus Nord CE 5 India price:
The OnePlus Nord 3 debuted at Rs 33,999, while the Nord 2 was introduced at Rs 27,999, and the original Nord launched at Rs 24,999. Based on this trend and the expected hardware improvements, the upcoming OnePlus Nord 5 might be priced around Rs 29,999 or slightly above.
