Putting an end to rumors and speculations, OnePlus, as announced earlier, has today launched the OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite as an India-first smartphone. The device launched alongside the OnePlus 10R 5G and the Nord Buds at the recent OnePlus event. It comes as an affordable mid-ranger device with a 120Hz display, a Snapdragon processor, and more. Check out the details below.
The OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite has a similar chassis design as last year’s Nord CE 5G. However, instead of the rounded-strip rear camera module on the latter, the new Nord device sports a rectangular triple-camera camera module with big camera housings at the back. The phone comes in two color options: Blue Tide and Black Dusk.
There is a primary 64MP camera with PDAF and a couple of 2MP sensors for portrait and macro shots. At the front of the device, there is also a 16MP selfie shooter, housed inside a punch-hole at the top left of the display. It supports features like Nightscape mode, Portrait mode, Dual-Video Video mode, and more.
Other than these, there is support for 5G, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth version 5.1, a 3.5mm audio jack, USB Type-C, a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, and more. The device runs Android 12-based OxygenOS 12.1 out-of-the-box. OnePlus promises 2 years of software updates and 3 years of security updates.
The OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G is the first sub-Rs 20,000 phone by OnePlus in years. It comes in two variants and here’s a look at the prices.
