OnePlus Nord CE 4 5G 256GB Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
8.0/10
Verdict
The OnePlus Nord CE4 features many thoughtful upgrades, making it a much more compelling option than last year`s Nord CE3. The phone also checks many boxes for everyday users, whether it is the display, battery, or performance. Its cameras are also good, if not the best. While the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 SoC promises cutting-edge AI features, we are still awaiting the availability of those features from OnePlus.
Pros
- Vivid display
- Reliable cameras
- Clean Android 14 experience
- Solid battery
Cons
- Limited Android OS update promise
- Average video recording
Design and display
+
If you compare the Nord CE3 and Nord CE4 side by side, evident changes include the colour and placement of the rear cameras.

Cameras

As mentioned, the Nord CE4 includes two cameras on the back as it ditches the 2MP macro lens. This also means one less camera feature compared to last year. The primary camera now utilises a new 50MP Sony LYT-600 sensor with OIS (optical image stabilisation) support. There still remains an 8MP ultra-wide camera. The front retains a 16MP selfie camera.

Performance and software
+
The OnePlus Nord CE4 draws power from Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 SoC. The phone utilises LPDDR4X RAM and UFS 3.1 storage. The base variant now offers 8GB RAM with 128GB storage, priced at Rs 24,999. The top model (Rs 26,999), which I am also using, offers 256GB storage. The phone offers a hybrid SIM slot, meaning you can simultaneously use two SIM cards or have one SIM and a microSD card for additional storage (up to 1TB).

Battery
+
There's also not much to complain about the battery backup, thanks to a new and chunkier 5,500mAh unit. Despite carrying a bigger battery, the Nord CE4's weight has only increased by 2 grams to 186 grams, which is truly impressive.
