OnePlus teases upcoming Android smartphone with up-to-date design and limited availability

  OnePlus has confirmed that another Nord-series smartphone is on the way - although it is the Lite version of the 5G CE4 rather than the line's long-awaited 2024 flagship. Nevertheless, the device might fit into the brand's line-up quite as well as the Ace 3 in terms of looks.

The "new Nord" is depicted as a device quite like the CE4 thus far - albeit without the unique Celadon Marble finish (as seen on Amazon.in) or round ring-flash for its new camera hump.

Instead, the CE3 Lite successor will have a choice of 2 colors (one of which is the gradient blue in which it has been teased thus far, and another that remains a mystery for now), although it does get the same new Sony LYT-600 sensor, with OIS to boot, as its non-Lite counterpart.

OnePlus has yet to divulge any further specs for its upcoming mid-ranger, besides hints that it is backed to deliver an "Absurdly Entertaining" experience throughout the day.

The Nord CE4 Lite's pre-orders are slated to start "soon" with Nord Buds 2 as an early-bird gift; however, it seems that event will be exclusive to the European and Indian markets, as a subsequent release to North America under a different name is only the stuff of rumor at present.
