OnePlus Nord 5 : Yet, that lagged behind is where the OnePlus Nord 5 serves with its almost-flagship experience at a price much lesser in the pockets of the masses. At the price of ₹31,999 in India, the Nord 5 guarantees performance with flying colors, all under a stunning display and a massive battery mobilization, thus appealing to either gamers or casual users. Herewith is another breakdown of why more reasons in favor of purchasing this one are offered by the Nord 5.
Feels Premium in Look & Sturdy Build
The curved edges of the OnePlus Nord 5 are an elegant glass construction giving a smooth touch of modernism. The Marble Sands, Dry Ice & Phantom Grey colors are such that the phone looks and feels durable. Front Gorilla Glass 7i with an IP65 rating for water and dust will be all around beautiful. Thickness is just 8.1 mm, which is good because it houses a huge battery, and at 211 grams, it feels a bit heavy yet very comfortable.
WOW AMOLED Display At 144Hz
With an incredible 1.5K resolution &144Hz refresh rate, the 6.83-inch Swift AMOLED display makes scrolling very smooth and enhances the entire gaming experience of the phone. With a peak brightness of not less than 1800 nits, the panel thus allows you to see even under sunlight. Finally, the display is shielded by Gorilla Glass 7i, so it will not wear out in normal use.
Mighty Snapdragon Performance
Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor under the hood with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 3.1 storage. This specification allows for smooth multitasking and gaming performance in the real world. So in-game performance, BGMI and Call of Duty: Mobile would run about 144 fps, thanks to the vapor-chamber cooling implemented in the device. It beats the mid-range segment barehanded.
Versatile Camera Setup
The camera lineup includes a 50MP Sony LYT-700 primary camera with OIS, an 8MP ultra-wide camera, and a 50MP front camera with autofocus. The back cameras manage decent daylight shots; the front is well composed for sharp selfies; the ultra-wide sorely needs more power, and low-light performance may be better.
Huge Battery and Superfast Charging
The mighty Nord 5 packs in this crazy 6800mAh of battery, which is 800mAh larger than its 5200mAh version being sold in Europe. In about 45 to 49 minutes, the former will be full under an 80W SUPERVOOC fast charge. Heavy users would not have to charge it for at least one whole day.
Smart AI Software
It runs on OxygenOS 15 based on Android 15, showcasing a clean environment together with an intuitive interface. It also hosts features like previously mentioned Plus Key shortcuts, AI Search & Real-Time Translation, with a trial of three months with Google Gemini AI on board. Highly-featured software does feel a bit like overload for some, in contrast to the much cleaner UI offered by Motorola.
What Users Are Saying
A few early beta testers with some comments on Reddit pinpoint some of the few main pros of the Nord 5:
“Main and selfie camera takes good stills and videos.”
“6800mAh battery in India, insane backup for long usage.”
“Smooth performance, good display, and reliable software features.”
