Joining the standard OnePlus Nord 5 18 is its more affordable sibling, the OnePlus Nord CE 5, which is also now available for pre-order in the Philippines. Starting today (July 9) until July 20, both models are up for grabs via Digital Walker.
As seen in its India launch, the Nord CE 5 features the MediaTek Dimensity 8350 chipset, a 6.77-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display, and a 50-megapixel main camera with OIS.
Notably, it supports storage expansion of up to 1TB via microSD slot.
However, unlike the Indian variant of the Nord CE 5, which packs a large 7100mAh battery, the Philippine version comes with a 5200mAh unit, according to the Shopee listing. It still supports 80W SuperVOOC fast charging, (no bypass charging though), and retains the IP65 dust and water jets resistance.
