OnePlus Nord 5 Mid-Range Phone Launched With Last Year’s Qualcomm Chip

OnePlus has unveiled Nord 5, a new mid-range phone that comes as a successor to last year’s Nord 4. As a successor, it offers notable upgrades, like a smoother display and the Plus key, a button to trigger AI — all for a starting price of ₹32,000. What else is an improvement—at least OnePlus thinks so—is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chip, which was launched last year.
