OnePlus has had a pretty good start to 2024 with the launch of the OnePlus 12 and 12R. The company's mid-range Nord and Nord CE devices are also quite popular among the masses, with the Nord CE being among the company's best-selling mid-range series. The Nord CE3 launched in 2023 was a great device and now OnePlus has announced that its successor, the Nord CE4 is coming soon. Here's everything you need to know about the announcement.

OnePlus has announced that the Nord CE4 launch event is scheduled for April 1 at 6:30 p.m. The Nord CE4 landing page is live with the image of a green and almost cloudy mint variant and a black variant. We also found out while exploring the DOM website that the codename for the Nord CE4 could be "Benz."

The mobile giant has also revealed that the Nord CE4 will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 SoC. For those unaware, the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 was announced back in November 2023 and is based on a 4nm process. It is an octa-core SoC and is almost 20% faster than the MediaTek 7200 Pro/Ultra in CPU-related tasks and 27% faster in GPU-related tasks. Also, it's much faster than its counterpart and previous generation SoC, the 7s Gen 2. Image courtesy: OnePlus

The back design and camera position remind us of the Galaxy S series and Sony Xperia. There appear to be only two cameras this time around, as opposed to three on the CE3. The third device looks like a circular LED flash. This could mean that OnePlus might ditch the useless 2MP macro for a better secondary snapper. There is also a visible IR blaster and a microphone hole just like the CE3. Image Courtesy: OnePlus (Edited by Abubakar Mohammed)
