The OnePlus Nord CE5 has officially popped up on Geekbench, just hours after the main OnePlus Nord 5 also made an appearance. Both phones are expected to launch together on July 8, but this new benchmark entry gives us our first real look at what the CE5 is bringing to the table — especially in terms of performance and software.
Here’s everything you need to know.
OnePlus Nord CE5 Geekbench Reveal: What’s Inside
According to the Geekbench database listing spotted today, the OnePlus Nord CE5 is powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 8350 chipset. That’s a mid-range processor, but a capable one — meant for people who want smooth performance without paying flagship prices.
The tested model features:
- 8GB of RAM
- Android 15 out of the box
It’s a bit unusual to see Android 15 this close to Android 16’s official rollout, but OnePlus may push an update later this year. Either way, Android 15 will still support all the latest features users expect in 2025.
OnePlus Nord CE5 Specs
| Feature | Expected Specs |
|---|---|
| Display | 6.7-inch flat OLED, 120Hz refresh rate |
| Processor | MediaTek Dimensity 8350 |
| RAM | 8GB |
| Storage | 256GB |
| Rear Cameras | 50MP main + 8MP ultrawide |
| Front Camera | 16MP selfie |
| Battery | 7,100mAh |
| Charging | 80W wired fast charging |
| Operating System | Android 15 with OxygenOS |
That 7,100mAh battery is one of the largest we’ve seen in a Nord device, and paired with 80W fast charging, it means you’ll likely get more than a full day of heavy use and a quick top-up when needed.
The OLED display with 120Hz refresh rate also puts it ahead of many budget phones in terms of viewing quality and smoothness — great for scrolling, videos, and gaming.
OnePlus Nord CE5 Launch and Price
The OnePlus Nord CE5 launch date is expected to be July 8, 2025, alongside the more premium OnePlus Nord 5. As of now, there’s no official price, but based on previous Nord CE models, we expect it to stay in the mid-range segment.
| Variant | Price (Approx.) |
|---|---|
| 8GB + 256GB | $329 – $379 USD |
| India (INR) | ₹24,999 – ₹28,999 |
These prices would place the Nord CE5 in the same range as popular mid-range phones like the Redmi Note 13 Pro+, Motorola Edge Neo, and Realme GT Neo Lite.
Final Thoughts
The OnePlus Nord CE5 Geekbench listing gives us a good early look at a device that seems to hit a sweet spot — big battery, fast charging, strong display, and a modern design, all expected at a fair price.
If you don’t need flagship-level power but still want a phone that looks and feels fast and premium, the CE5 could be a solid pick.
