OnePlus Nord CE5: A Mid‑Ranger with Monster Battery & Smart Value

The OnePlus Nord CE5 is here — delivering powerful internals, a modern display, and a battery that truly stands out in its price segment. Let’s dive into what makes it a compelling option for tech enthusiasts.

🧩 Design & Display

6.77” AMOLED display with a crisp FHD+ resolution and 120Hz refresh rate — that’s what you get up front. It’s vibrant, smooth, and surprisingly bright, peaking around 1430 nits, which means great outdoor visibility.

The phone weighs just under 200g and feels balanced in hand, thanks to a curved design and lightweight materials. The IP65 rating adds durability against dust and light splashes — a welcome touch.

⚙️ Performance & Software

Under the hood, the OnePlus Nord CE5 is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8350 Apex chipset, paired with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 3.1 storage. This combo delivers buttery-smooth performance, whether you’re gaming or juggling multiple apps.

Gaming? No problem. You’ll hit up to 120 FPS in popular titles like BGMI and Call of Duty: Mobile. And thanks to OxygenOS 15, based on Android 15, everything feels clean, fast, and bloat-free.

Even better — OnePlus is promising 4 years of Android updates and 6 years of security patches. That’s peace of mind.

🔋 Battery Life That Refuses to Quit

This is where the Nord CE5 truly shines. The 7,100 mAh battery is the largest ever in a OnePlus device.

  • 2.5 days of moderate use
  • 1.5 days of heavy use (gaming, streaming, etc.)
  • 6+ hours of video on just a 10-minute top-up (thanks to 80W SUPERVOOC fast charging)

You’ll charge less and live more — which is rare at this price point.
