The OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite 5G

Five best features of the OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite

1. Minimalist design - As you can see, the device boasts clean aesthetics with the usual OnePlus logo and an oblong-shaped camera island that houses the two sensors. It also comes in Mega Blue or Super Silver colorway. Furthermore, it has an IP54 rating for dust and water resistance.

2. Bright screen with wet touch support - The OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite 5G features a 6.67-inch AMOLED panel with 120Hz refresh rate and FHD+ resolution. 

The screen

It also has a very bright screen at 2,100 nits so you can still see your display under sunlight. Moreover, it has an "Aqua Touch" feature which enables users to tap and gesture when the screen is wet.

3. Decent memory configuration - The phone comes with 8GB LPDDR4X RAM and can be extended by another 8GB virtually.

It also has 256GB UFS 2.2 storage which is becoming the average memory space in 2024. This should give users adequate space to store their files, apps, games, movies, music, and more.

4. Big battery and fast charging - The OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite 5G comes with a slightly upgraded 5,110mAh battery and if paired with a 6nm chip, users should have a full day of juice on regular usage.

If you run out of battery, you can also quickly charge it with the 80W SUPERVOOC. OnePlus claims it can fully charge the device from 1 to 100 percent in 52 minutes.

OnePlus also notes that its Battery Health Engine will ensure the device's battery life will be good for up to 4 years with 80 percent retained health.

The cameras

5. Sony LYTIA main sensor - The phone uses the 50MP Sony LYT-600 primary shooter with bright f/1.8 aperture, PDAF, CAF, OIS + EIS, and a 2MP depth camera. OnePlus claims this will give users clear snapshots that you can simply flaunt on your social media. It also has up to 2x in-sensor zoom and provides improved bokeh with its portrait mode.

The downside so far is that OnePlus didn't upgrade its chip from last year's Nord CE 3 Lite 5G. The device is still equipped with the Snapdragon 695 chip.
