There’s an upgraded cooling system here, along with support for LPDDR5X RAM. It features a dual rear camera system and will be available in a pale blue finish that’s officially called “Dry Ice.”
The other alleged features include up to 12GB of RAM and 512GB of onboard storage. The phone could show up with a 50MP primary lens accompanied by an 8MP sensor. For selfies, the device will supposedly rely on another 50MP lens. It is said to weigh around 211 grams and comes with IP65 ingress protection.
The company says the upgraded specs allow the Nord 5 to really shine when gaming, touting “unparalleled performance in its class” with “robust support for leading mobile games.” It mentioned that the device can run Call of Duty: Mobile natively at 144FPS, with real-time ray tracing.
OnePlus is also releasing a companion phone called the Nord CE5.
We don’t know much about this one, other than it’s likely to be a slightly cheaper version of the standard headset.
Both of these phones will feature the company’s newly-announced Plus Key, which replaced the Alert Slider. Users can customize this button to perform a number of tasks, but it’s better known as an instantaneous way to pull up AI tools. The cute lil AI button first appeared with the OnePlus 13s, which launched in Asia earlier this month.
The company also announced the OnePlus Buds 4
In addition to the Nord 5, the company also announced the OnePlus Buds 4. These high-end earbuds offer ultra-low latency audio for gamers, with dual drivers, support for Hi-Res audio and other bells and whistles. They will be available in both green and dark gray. It also revealed a new smartwatch and a tablet.

OnePlus is also bringing a smaller smartwatch dubbed OnePlus Watch 3 in a 43mm size. Tipster OnLeaks has also shared the renders of the upcoming smartwatch. It appears to be a mini version of the existing OnePlus Watch 3, which features a 46.6mm size. The publication notes that it should be identical to the Oppo Watch X2 Mini.
The OnePlus Watch 3 43mm could have a 1.32-inch display with a 466 x 466 resolution. The smartwatch is said to be equipped with two operating systems, WearOS and RTOS, similar to the Watch 3. Underneath, it will allegedly be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 SoC paired with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of onboard storage.
Since it is a smaller smartwatch, the battery life is believed to be impacted as well. It is promised to provide 72 hours of usage, which is a bit smaller when compared to 100 hours of usage on the OnePlus Watch 3.
