The OnePlus Nord series has carved a niche for itself in the market, offering capable devices at competitive prices. The upcoming OnePlus Nord CE4 seems poised to continue this tradition. While the phone isn’t officially out yet, scheduled for launch on April 1st, leaks and teasers have painted a promising picture. Let’s delve into what we know so far about the OnePlus Nord CE4.
Design and Display
Based on available information, the OnePlus Nord CE4 is expected to sport a large 6.73-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. This translates to a smooth and responsive experience, whether you’re scrolling through social media or gaming. The display resolution is likely to be Full HD+ (1080 x 2412 pixels), offering good clarity for everyday use. Leaks suggest a punch-hole design for the front-facing camera, maximizing screen real estate.
The back panel is rumored to be constructed from plastic with a glossy finish. While some might prefer the premium feel of glass, plastic helps keep the weight down and the cost competitive. Color options are yet to be confirmed, but a greenish marbled design called “Celadon Marble” has surfaced.
Performance and Hardware
Under the hood, the OnePlus Nord CE4 is expected to pack the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chipset. This mid-range processor should deliver capable performance for everyday tasks and even some light gaming. It will likely be paired with 8GB of RAM, ensuring smooth multitasking. Storage options are rumored to include 128GB and 256GB, with the possibility of further expansion via a microSD card.
One of the highlights of the OnePlus Nord CE4 seems to be its fast charging capabilities. The phone is tipped to support 100W SUPERVOOC charging, which according to OnePlus can deliver a day’s power in just 15 minutes. This is a significant advantage for users who are constantly on the go.
Camera
Specific details about the camera system are still under wraps. However, considering previous Nord phones, we can expect a multi-lens setup on the back. The main sensor will likely be a high-resolution one, accompanied by ultrawide and possibly additional sensors for depth information or macro photography. The front-facing camera is rumored to be housed in the punch-hole cutout and offer decent resolution for selfies and video calls.
Software and Other Features
The OnePlus Nord CE4 is expected to launch with the latest Android 14 operating system out of the box. This translates to access to the newest features and security updates from Google. OnePlus is known for its near-stock Android experience with minimal bloatware, ensuring a clean and responsive user interface.
Other expected features include an in-display fingerprint sensor for secure unlocking and an array of connectivity options like Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, and NFC for contactless payments.
Price and Availability
The OnePlus Nord CE4 is expected to launch in India on April 1st. While the official price hasn’t been revealed, leaks suggest a starting price of around ₹23,990 (approximately $290) for the base variant. This positions the phone competitively in the mid-range segment.
