OnePlus teases a new smartphone for June 18, likely to be the Nord CE 4 Lite
OnePlus India, on Friday, teased a new phone slated to release on June 18 at 7 pm and netizens suspect this to be the Nord CE 4 Lite.
“There's a long binge brewing,” the smartphone maker wrote on X (formerly Twitter), showing a glimpse of the upcoming smartphone.
From the image, the device looks a bit similar to the OnePlus Nord CE 4 released earlier this year in April and the teal coloured “n” hints highly towards a Nord device — a hallmark of the company’s budget devices.
The Nord CE 4 Lite was also recently spotted on India’s Bureau of Identification (BIS) certification site and Singapore’s IMDA website, suggesting an imminent launch.
While OnePlus has not officially disclosed anything more, here is what we can expect from the most affordable device in the Nord series.
The Nord CE 4 Lite is likely to run on the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 chipset with 8GB RAM and up to 256GB storage.
It is said to sport a 6.67-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rate. On the back, it could house a dual camera setup instead of the three lenses on the Nord CE 4. The primary camera is expected to be a 50MP sensor and the second one would probably be a macro lens.
The smartphone is anticipated to be powered by a 5,000 mAh battery, featuring support for 67W fast wired charging.
The Nord CE 4 is priced at ₹24,999 and the Nord CE 4 Lite could be placed under the sub ₹20,000 price range. Last year, OnePlus launched the Nord CE 3 Lite starting at ₹19,999.
The most capable of the lot — the OnePlus Nord 4 is also yet to release. Rumours suggest that it could be unveiled later in July.
