The Nord CE 5 is expected to attract attention with its power-efficient processor and advanced battery tech.
The OnePlus Buds 4 will launch alongside the phones, offering a claimed total battery life of up to 45 hours with the charging case.

OnePlus Nord CE 5: Chipset, Camera, and Battery Features
The OnePlus Nord CE 5 will come equipped with the MediaTek Dimensity 8350 Apex chipset. Built on a 4nm process, this octa-core processor is paired with a Mali-G615 GPU and LPDDR5X RAM for enhanced performance and efficiency. The smartphone aims to meet the daily demands of users while maintaining low power consumption and heat output.
A major highlight of the Nord CE 5 is its large 7,100mAh battery. It supports 80W SuperVOOC fast charging, which OnePlus claims can fully charge the phone in just 59 minutes. A 10-minute charge reportedly enables up to six hours of continuous YouTube streaming. The phone also supports bypass charging, allowing the power to skip the battery during heavy use, such as gaming. It includes Battery Health Magic, a system that intelligently manages charging to preserve battery life over time.
For photography, the Nord CE 5 features a 50-megapixel Sony LYT-600 primary sensor. This 1/1.95-inch sensor comes with Optical Image Stabilisation (OIS), which helps deliver clearer photos and smoother videos. Additionally, the device supports 4K video recording at up to 60fps. It also incorporates RAW HDR and Real Tone technology from the OnePlus 13 series, ensuring more lifelike images. Furthermore, it offers Ultra HDR in Live Photos, which enhances both dynamic range and skin tone accuracy for a more polished visual experience.
As the launch date draws closer, anticipation continues to grow around how the OnePlus Nord CE 5 and its companion devices will perform in the highly competitive midrange smartphone segment. With significantly upgraded internals and premium camera features, OnePlus appears well-positioned to strengthen its Nord lineup in India. Moreover, the inclusion of fast charging, a powerful chipset, and advanced battery management suggests that the company is aiming to deliver solid value for everyday users and tech enthusiasts alike.
