OnePlus Nord CE 5: With only days to go before the official launch, OnePlus has confirmed the essential specifications of the upcoming OnePlus Nord CE 5. Scheduled to release on July 8 along with the OnePlus Nord 5 and Buds 4, this new phone guarantees improvements in performance, charging, and camera technology. Let’s see what’s coming our way.

Launch Date and Availability

OnePlus officially confirmed that the Nord CE 5 will be available for purchase from July 12 at 12 am IST. Its sibling, the Nord 5, will be available for sale slightly beforehand on July 9 at noon IST. Both phones and the OnePlus Buds 4 will be available through Amazon, the OnePlus India website, and offline OnePlus Experience stores nationwide.

Performance Powered by One Of the Most Powerful Processors in the Market: Dimensity 8350 Apex

Under the hood, the OnePlus Nord CE 5 will boast the newly announced 4nm MediaTek Dimensity 8350 Apex chip, coupled with a Mali-G615 GPU and LPDDR5X RAM. This configuration promises to provide beefy performance for multitasking, gaming, and daily use. With such an up-to-task processor, the phone stands ready to battle in the mid-range 5G segment.

Massive Battery with SuperVOOC Fast Charging

One of the most eye-catching features is the massive 7,100mAh battery, one of the largest in any OnePlus phone to date. The device supports 80W SuperVOOC fast charging, which can reportedly take the phone from 1 to 100 percent in just 59 minutes. A 10-minute charge is said to be enough for six hours of YouTube streaming. The Nord CE 5 also supports bypass charging and Battery Health Magic for long-term battery preservation.

Camera Setup Borrowed from Flagships

In the camera section, the Nord CE 5 will feature a 50MP Sony LYT-600 sensor with Optical Image Stabilisation (OIS). The device will offer 4K video recording at 60fps and leverage RAW HDR and Real Tone features borrowed from the OnePlus 13 line. Ultra HDR in Live Photos is another stunning addition, making the Nord CE 5 a strong mid-range snapper.

OnePlus Buds 4 Also Launching

In addition to the phones, OnePlus is releasing the Buds 4 TWS earbuds. These will provide up to 45 hours of combined battery life, with the buds themselves providing as much as 11 hours. Fast charging, slide gestures for volume control, and AI Translation are just some of the highlights. They’ll also have Steady Connect for stable Bluetooth, Dual-Device connectivity, and Google Fast Pair.

Verdict: A Promising Launch Lineup

With a robust chipset, a massive battery, and rich camera capabilities, the OnePlus Nord CE 5 is set to be an enticing choice for budget buyers. Paired with high-end earbuds with a host of features and yet another smartphone model in the Nord lineup, OnePlus looks set to take over its price category in July 2025.
