OnePlus Nord 5: India Price (Expected)

According to tipster Debayan Roy (via 91Mobiles), the OnePlus Nord 5 is expected to launch in India at a price of approximately Rs. 30,000. This aligns with the starting price of the OnePlus Nord 4, which debuted at Rs. 29,999. Like its predecessor, the OnePlus Nord 5 is likely to be available for purchase through Amazon and the official OnePlus website.

A key question that remains is whether the Nord 5 will follow the same pattern as the Nord 4, which was a rebranded version of the OnePlus Ace 3V. If that is the case, the OnePlus Nord 5 could potentially be a rebranded OnePlus Ace 5V, though it is still too early to confirm this speculation.

OnePlus Nord 5: Features (Expected)

The OnePlus Nord 5 could feature a flat AMOLED display with a 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. An in-display fingerprint scanner is also expected to be included. The phone may come with a large 7,000mAh battery, coupled with 100W fast charging capabilities.

Under the hood, the OnePlus Nord 5 is rumoured to feature a MediaTek Dimensity 9400e chipset. This key information comes from Roy, as well as another tipster, Abhishek Yadav. Earlier, Chinese tipster Digital Chat Station hinted that the upcoming OnePlus Ace 5 series phone will be powered by the Dimensity 9400e chip. This processor is expected to be a binned variant of the Dimensity 9400 and may outperform the Dimensity 9300+ and Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 SoC, which will make it more powerful than the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 chip found in the OnePlus Nord 4.

For photography, the OnePlus Nord 5 could sport a 50MP primary camera with optical image stabilisation (OIS) and an 8MP ultrawide-angle camera. It is also expected to feature a 16MP front camera for selfies and video calling. Additionally, the device is expected to have a glass back with a plastic frame, along with an IR blaster and a dual speaker setup.
