Nord 5 Goes Full Throttle: OnePlus Unleashes Flagship Power and 100W Charging on July 8!

OnePlus is preparing for blockbuster Indian launch on July 8, 2025, unleashing the highly anticipated Nord 5, the Nord CE 5, and the OnePlus Buds 4 wireless earbuds. The Nord 5 will be a midrange game-changer, offering a flagship experience coupled with fast charging to the masses.

 

Key Highlights

Launch Date & Event: OnePlus Nord 5, Nord CE 5, and Buds 4 will go on sale officially during the OnePlus Summer event on July 8, 2025, at 2 PM IST.

 

Flagship-Level Performance: The Nord 5 has been officially announced to come with the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 soc, the first Nord smartphone to get a Snapdragon 8 series processor. The processor will be coupled with up to 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM and will introduce a significant performance and gaming upgrade.

 

Display & Design: Look for a 6.77 to 6.8-inch flat OLED screen with a 1.5K resolution and smooth 120Hz (up to 144Hz or so for some games) refresh rate, great for gaming and multimedia. Design is reminiscent of the OnePlus Ace 5 Ultra, with vertically stacked rear cameras.

 

Battery & Charging: Nord 5 will pack a whopping 7,000mAh battery, one of the largest in the segment, along with super-fast 100W charging, providing day-long battery life and no downtime.

 

Camera System: There should be a dual rear camera configuration with a 50MP primary camera sporting OIS and an 8MP ultra-wide-angle sensor. On the front, there should be a 16MP front camera.

 

Software: The phone will have Android 15 out of the box, offering the latest software experience.

 

Price Expectation: Market experts suggest a starting price of about ₹30,000, which would make it a very desirable option for people looking for flagship-level performance at a non-flagship price point. Companion Launches The Nord CE 5 and OnePlus Buds 4 will also make appearances, and the Buds 4 will "redefine the category standard" for wireless sound. With the Nord 5, OnePlus will reframe the Indian consumer's expectations from a mid-range smartphone—offering industry-best performance, fast charging, and high-end display at an economic price.
