Big battery, super-bright screen, blazing fast charging
Another small but meaningful improvement will see the already remarkable 67W charging capabilities jump to a top speed of 80 watts, and perhaps more intriguingly, OnePlus plans to add 5W reverse charging to this budget-friendly value equation as well. That’s obviously not a mind-blowing number, but it could come in handy when you need to quickly juice up another device and there’s no “traditional” power outlet nearby.
The Nord CE 4 Lite 5G is further confirmed to sport a 120Hz refresh rate-supporting OLED display with an unspecified size, and although that may sound similar to what the Nord CE 3 Lite 5G offers in the same department, the maximum brightness will apparently rise from a modest 680 nits to no less than 2,100 nits.
But wait, there’s more
Last but certainly not least on today’s list of (pre) announced CE 4 Lite specs and features, we have a primary rear-facing camera with a brand-new 50MP Sony Lytia 600 sensor and an “aspherical lens” said to offer a “clear advantage in terms of aberrations and distortions control”, as well as a “wider field of view” compared to a “normal” lens.
The Nord CE 3 Lite, mind you, comes with a 108MP main camera on its back that sounds better but is almost certainly not, at least in day-to-day operations and most typical photography scenarios. Pretty much everything else about the OnePlus Nord CE 4 Lite 5G remains under wraps for now, but that will obviously change in less than a week.
This eventual OnePlus Nord N40 5G mid-ranger is likely to start at around $300 stateside, and if it does come with a massive battery, blazing fast charging support, and an ultra-bright screen in tow, the bang for buck could be virtually unbeatable.
