OnePlus Nord 5 launching next month: India price, design, full specs and everything else expected
The OnePlus Nord 5 will launch in India on July 8, which is next month. While most of the official details about the phone are still under wraps, multiple leaks have already revealed a good deal about what to expect and by the looks of it, this could be the most powerful Nord phone yet. OnePlus hasn't confirmed any key specs yet, but leaks have hinted at big upgrades across the board, from battery and chipset to design and display. Here are the details. advertisementOnePlus Nord 5: Full specs (leaked)Chipset confirmedThe OnePlus Nord 5 is confirmed to pack a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC, which is a fine choice. But, early rumours hinted at the use of MediaTek Dimensity 9400e processor. While the company has revealed that this is not powering the Nord 5 smartphone, the inclusion of this chip could have offered a major leap in everyday speed, gaming capabilities and overall efficiency. In fact, since this chip offers performance levels close to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, the Nord 5 would have sell like hot cakes. Nevertheless, 8s Gen 3 SoC is also quite powerful for a mid-range phone. It will be interesting to see how the phone will perform in the real world. To recall, the current Nord 4 runs on the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 SoC, a good performer in the mid-range category. Huge battery, faster charging?advertisementThe battery department is expected to see a big improvement. Leaks suggest that the Nord 5 could feature a massive 7,000mAh battery, a big step up from the 5,500mAh unit seen on the Nord 4. This kind of battery size is hardly found on phones in 2025. It will be interesting to see how this OnePlus phone will perform.
To support this, OnePlus is also tipped to offer 100W fast charging support. It's clear that OnePlus is focusing not just on performance but also on endurance, something which many mid-range users may value highly.Display and design details leakedThe OnePlus Nord 5 is tipped to come with a flat OLED screen offering 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. While the exact size isn't known yet, there are chances the phone could either retain the 6.74-inch display from the Nord 4 or offer a bigger screen to make space for the bigger battery. An in-display fingerprint sensor is also expected.Design-wise, OnePlus is reportedly making noticeable changes. The Nord 4 came with a dual-tone finish and horizontally aligned rear cameras, but the Nord 5 may switch to a pill-shaped vertical camera module at the back. Colour options, according to early teasers, could include subtle shades like off-white and light blue. This suggests that the device will offer clean, minimal aesthetic the Nord series is known for.advertisementOne interesting point is the build quality. The Nord 4 had a solid metal frame that gave it a premium feel. However, tipster Debayan Roy suggests that the Nord 5 may adopt a glass back with a plastic frame. This could help keep the weight and cost down, but we will have to see how the in-hand experience compares to the previous model.Camera setup might remain unchangedIn the camera department, not much appears to be changing. The Nord 5 is tipped to retain the same setup as the Nord 4, a 50-megapixel primary camera and an 8-megapixel ultrawide lens on the rear. On the front could be a 16-megapixel front-facing shooter. While this may disappoint users looking for a fresh camera experience, OnePlus may improve things through software tuning. Also, there are chances that the brand could offer different camera sensors for this version.OnePlus Nord 5: Price in India (leaked)Coming to pricing, OnePlus has not made any official announcements yet. However, we expect the base model of the OnePlus Nord 5 to be priced under Rs 30,000. This is something that the above-mentioned tipster is also suggesting. To compare, the Nord 4 launched at Rs 29,999 and the Nord 3 was priced at Rs 33,999. So, it won't be surprising if the Nord 5 lands somewhere between these two. But, as always, all the leaked information should be taken with a pinch of salt until the official reveal.

No Hasselblad in OnePlus 15? New leak reveals big OnePlus camera update
Here we go again! The rumoured OnePlus 15, said to be the successor to the OnePlus 13, will reportedly launch without the Hasselblad branding. And this isn't the first time we've heard something like this about OnePlus and Hasselblad parting ways. Before the launch of the OnePlus 13, it was widely speculated that the company would be ending its partnership with Hasselblad, and the OnePlus 13 would launch without the Hasselblad branding. However, that didn't happen, and the OnePlus 13 featured a triple-rear camera system, once again tuned in collaboration with Hasselblad. That said, this time around, it's looking more likely that the partnership may actually come to an to Digital Chat Station on Weibo, the OnePlus 15 will not feature Hasselblad-tuned cameras and will instead adopt a new in-house imaging engine, much like what OPPO has done with its recent launches, the Find X8 and Find X8 Ultra in China. Both those phones use OPPO's proprietary Lumo imaging from this, the leak also highlights some of the key specifications of the OnePlus 15. It appears the company might scale things back on the display front, with the OnePlus 15 said to sport a 6.78-inch flat AMOLED panel with a 1.5K resolution — a step-down from the 6.82-inch quad-curved AMOLED screen with 2K resolution found on the OnePlus 13. The upside here is the flat display. Much like the OnePlus 13R, this move could be seen as a practical choice. While some might consider it a downgrade — and as good as quad-curved screens are (certainly better than older sloping-curved panels) — a flat display often proves more usable in day-to-day Also, in case you're wondering why OnePlus is skipping the number 14 and naming the next flagship the OnePlus 15 instead, it's because the number 4 is considered unlucky in Chinese culture. That's why the company is expected to jump straight from 13 to 15 for its next major OnePlus 15 is also rumoured to retain the triple 50-megapixel rear camera setup from the OnePlus 13, including a primary sensor, an ultra-wide, and a periscope telephoto lens. On the performance side, the phone is expected to be powered by Qualcomm's next-gen Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 chip, which is likely to be unveiled at the Snapdragon Summit in leaks have also claimed that the OnePlus 15 will pack the largest battery ever in a flagship phone — reportedly over 7,000mAh — with support for 100W wired and wireless charging. The phone is also said to come with an IP69 rating for dust and water resistance, just like the OnePlus OnePlus 15 is expected to launch in China by the end of this year, followed by a global release — including India — in early 2026. To recall, the OnePlus 13 was launched in India earlier this year, on January 7, at a starting price of Rs 69,999.
