OnePlus Nord CE 5 expected launch timeline

A recent leak has shown the design of the OnePlus Nord CE 5, the company's upcoming mid-range smartphone, at least from the back. In comparison to the Nord CE 4, the new render indicates a significant change in the phone's appearance.

The most obvious modification is the rear camera module, which now closely mirrors the design of the iPhone 16. It is anticipated that the Nord CE 5 will reach India around May 2025.

The OnePlus Nord CE 5 will have a flat back panel and frame, departing from the somewhat curved edges of its predecessor, according to an exclusive leak by Smartprix.

The OnePlus logo is in the center of the simple, clean rear design. The dual-camera arrangement at the upper left, however, is the main attraction. Inside an oval-shaped notch, the cameras are arranged vertically in two sizable rings, obviously drawing inspiration from Apple's anticipated iPhone 16 design.

A tiny dot between the camera rings may be a sensor or a microphone, and a flash is located next to the module.

Within the BBK group, this design language is not wholly new. Similar circular camera housings are found in phones like the OnePlus 13T and the OPPO K13, but the Nord CE 5 keeps things simple and uncluttered.

The real retail version of the phone might have various colors because the leaked render doesn't confirm the final color.

According to previous rumors, the Nord CE 5's hardware will include a 6.7-inch Full HD+ OLED screen with a refresh rate of 120 Hz. According to reports, it would be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8350 chip, which is also used in phones like the Realme P3 Ultra and Oppo Reno 13 Pro.

But its battery is one of the main talking topics. An enormous 7,100mAh battery, a significant improvement over the 5,500mAh unit seen on the Nord CE 4, is anticipated to be included in the Nord CE 5 along with 80W fast charging capabilities.

Thanks to silicon-carbon battery technology, which keeps the design thin, the phone may not seem overly huge despite its large battery. Brands like iQOO have lately employed comparable technology with positive outcomes.

The remaining characteristics, which include a hybrid SIM slot, a single speaker arrangement, and 8GB RAM combined with up to 256GB storage, are all quite typical for the market.

A 50-megapixel Sony LYT600 or IMX882 primary sensor with OIS, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide camera, and a 16-megapixel front-facing camera for selfies and video chats are reportedly included in the OnePlus Nord CE 5's camera setup.

OxygenOS 15, which is based on Android 15, is anticipated to come pre-installed on the phone.
