Priced starting at ₹29,999 (including ₹2,000 bank discount), the Nord 5 is now available for purchase via Amazon India and the OnePlus official website.
The OnePlus Nord 5 brings a sleek design, featuring a glass front and back protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 7i, and a plastic frame for durability and lighter weight. The phone measures 163.4 x 77 x 8.1 mm and weighs 211g, offering a solid yet comfortable feel in hand.
With an IP65 rating, the device is dust-tight and resistant to low-pressure water jets, making it more resilient for daily use.
At the front, the Nord 5 boasts a 6.83-inch Swift AMOLED display with support for 1 billion colors, HDR10+, and Ultra HDR. With a resolution of 1272 x 2800 pixels (~450 ppi) and a peak brightness of 1800 nits, this display is both sharp and ultra-vibrant.
The 144Hz refresh rate ensures buttery-smooth visuals for scrolling and gaming, while the 3840Hz PWM dimming reduces eye strain during extended use.
Under the hood, the Nord 5 is powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset (4nm), delivering performance comparable to flagship devices. The octa-core CPU (with a Cortex-X4 prime core) and Adreno 735 GPU ensure top-tier performance across multitasking, gaming, and heavy applications.
The device ships with:
All variants come with UFS 3.1 storage, and while there's no microSD card slot, the high internal storage should be sufficient for most users.
Running on Android 15 with OxygenOS 15, the phone will receive up to 4 major Android upgrades, ensuring longevity and software security.
On the rear, the OnePlus Nord 5 features a dual-camera setup:
The rear camera supports 4K video at 60fps, Ultra HDR, and gyro-EIS, making it capable for both photography and content creation.
At the front, a powerful 50MP selfie camera with autofocus and 4K video support ensures crystal-clear selfies and high-quality video calls.
In India, the Nord 5 packs a 6800mAh battery, offering excellent screen-on-time and an active use score of 13 hours and 47 minutes in tests. The global variant includes a 5200mAh unit.
Charging is equally impressive, with:
It also features bypass charging, which powers the phone directly during heavy use like gaming — reducing heat and battery stress.
There’s no 3.5mm headphone jack, but wireless audio quality is top-notch with wide codec support.
The OnePlus Nord 5 is available in three stylish colors — Phantom Grey, Dry Ice, and Marble Sands. Priced from ₹29,999 (including a ₹2,000 instant bank discount), the phone is now on sale via Amazon India and the official OnePlus website.
