Chinese smartphone brand OnePlus is reportedly planning to launch the OnePlus Nord 5 series in India, according to media reports. The series include the OnePlus Nord 5 and OnePlus Nord CE 5. The smartphones are expected to debut on July 8 as part of the company’s effort to expand its mid-range lineup. However, OnePlus has yet to officially confirm the devices or their launch date.
The OnePlus Nord 5 has been spotted on a benchmarking website, featuring Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC paired with 12GB of RAM. It was previously rumoured to launch as a rebranded version of the OnePlus Ace 5 Racing Edition. OnePlus Global shared a teaser video on X (formerly Twitter) hinting at the upcoming launch of the OnePlus Nord 5 series. The video promised ‘dragon speed and elite performance.’ However, the post was later taken down, sparking even more curiosity among fans.
The smartphone is expected to sport a 6.7-inch flat OLED display, offering an immersive visual experience. The device is powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset, paired with 12GB of RAM for smooth multitasking and performance. The handset is expected to sport a 7,000mAh battery along with a 100W fast wired charging for quick top-ups. On the photography front, the phone may feature a dual rear camera setup led by a 50-megapixel primary sensor, along with a 16-megapixel front camera for selfies and video calls.
The device is expected to be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8350 chipset, coupled with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. It may feature a 6.7-inch flat OLED display with Full HD+ resolution and a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. The phone is backed by a massive 7,100mAh battery along with a 80W fast charging support. In the camera department, it could sport a triple rear setup with a 50MP primary sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide lens, and a 16MP front-facing camera for selfies.

It may particularly appeal to mobile gamers seeking high performance at an affordable price.
