OnePlus has officially unveiled the OnePlus Nord CE4 and the launch was not an April’s fool joke after all. The OnePlus Nord CE4, priced at INR 24,999 is an exceptional choice for users looking for an all-rounder phone in the sub-25K segment. The device directly competes with the popular and fan-favorite Nothing Phone (2a) that launched last month.
OnePlus Nord CE4 Specs
As for the OnePlus Nord CE4’s specifications, it features a 6.74” AMOLED screen with a refresh rate of 120 Hz. The display features the Aqua Touch technology used on the more expensive OnePlus 12, which allows you to continue using your phone normally in drizzling rain.
Under the hood, it is powered by the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chip which is a major boost in performance over the Snapdragon 782G on the Nord CE3. This is paired with 8 GB LPDDR4X RAM and UFS 3.1 storage, both of which will make the phone better for longevity.
The Nord CE4 has a plastic frame and glass back with a refreshing new design. Unfortunately, there’s no alert slider on the device. You will, though, find a pair of stereo speakers and an IR blaster on the phone.
As for the cameras, the Nord CE4 uses the 50 MP Sony LYT600 main sensor, which is actually smaller than the sensor on the CE3, the Sony IMX 890. The Sony LYT 600 has a sensor size of 1/1.95” which is marginally smaller than the 1/1.56” sensor size of the Sony IMX890. OnePlus seems to have shaved down on the cameras in exchange for a lower price and a better chipset.
As for the other cameras, there’s an 8 MP ultra-wide camera (Sony IMX355) that has a sensor size of 1/4” and a 16 MP front camera with a sensor size of 1/3”. This marks a departure from OnePlus’ previous use of Sony IMX series sensors in the Nord CE lineup, indicating a shift in their camera strategy.
Furthermore, the Nord CE4 features a 5,500 mAh battery paired with 100W fast charging (charger included in the box). It comes in two stunning colorways—Blue and Black. The device runs on OxygenOS 14 based on Android 14 out of the box and is promised to receive two years of software updates and three years of security updates.
