OnePlus is expanding its 2025 lineup with a new collection of mid-range devices set to launch across Europe on July 8. As reported by TechRadar, the announcement includes the OnePlus Nord 5 and Nord CE5 smartphones, a new OnePlus Watch 3 43mm, the OnePlus Buds 4 wireless earbuds, and the OnePlus Pad Lite tablet.
The Nord 5 headlines the collection as a performance-centric device powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor—an unusually powerful choice for the mid-range category. Paired with LPDDR5X RAM and an expansive CryoFlex liquid cooling system, the Nord 5 is built for smooth multitasking and demanding mobile gaming. OnePlus claims support for up to 144 frames per second using frame rate interpolation in games like Battlegrounds Mobile India.
Both Nord models adopt a vertical rear camera layout to optimize internal space, enabling larger batteries and better hardware placement. The Nord 5 will arrive in a crisp Dry Ice finish, while the Nord CE5 debuts in a soft Marble Mist.
In the audio category, the OnePlus Buds 4 aim to deliver premium sound with dual drivers, dual DACs, Hi-Res LHDC 5.0 support, and 3D Audio features. For gamers, ultra-low latency mode drops response times to 47ms. The earbuds will be available in Zen Green and Storm Gray.
The new OnePlus Pad Lite serves as an affordable tablet companion to the recently launched Pad 3. With a large 9,340mAh battery, a MediaTek Helio G99 chip, and 90Hz display, it offers compatibility with the broader OnePlus ecosystem in a new Aero Blue colorway.
Also joining the lineup is the OnePlus Watch 3 43mm, a compact version of the brand’s flagship wearable. While smaller, it retains the core features of the Watch 3, including long battery life, accurate GPS, and health tracking, now wrapped in a Silver Steel chassis.
Together, these products highlight OnePlus’s continued strategy to deliver high-performance, stylish devices at more accessible price points while maintaining a clear separation from its premium flagship tier. The company emphasizes that its Nord series is not just about affordability but about creating bold, design-forward alternatives for a wider audience.
