OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite 5G launched, 5 reasons why it is the best smartphone under Rs 20,000 – India Today

The OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite 5G has officially launched in India. If you have followed OnePlus you will know that CE Lite series of devices are meant to bring the most meaningful technologies of the company at a more affordable segment. And by more affordable we mean phones priced under Rs 20,000. The Nord CE4 Lite too is such a phone. It goes on sale on 27 June, 12Pm and its price starts at Rs 19,999. But the big deal this time is just how much the Nord CE4 Lite offers to users despite its relatively pocket-friendly price.

Essentially, there are upgrades in all the areas as compared to its predecessor, Nord CE3 Lite, amongst which, here are the top 5 reasons why you should consider the OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite:

Reason 1: Long-lasting battery that keeps you going

Battery life is crucial, right? Well, the Nord CE4 Lite totally nails this part. If you thought, the flagship OnePlus 12 battery at 5,400mAh was massive, the OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite, does it one better by offering a 5,500mAh battery under the hood, paired with 80W SUPERVOOC fast charging. And the best bit is that the charger is inside the box.

The Nord CE4 Lite delivers the best battery life you can get on a phone at this price, even better than the Nord CE3 Lite and much better than its competitors. For context, the Nord CE4 Lite’s battery can deliver up to 20.1 hours of YouTube video playback or up to 47.62 hours of video calls on a single charge. In simpler words, with moderate to heavy use, one can easily get about 1.5 to 2 days of battery life on a single charge with the Nord CE4 Lite. Fun fact — the Nord CE4 Lite also supports reverse wired charging, perfect for juicing up your TWS headphones or other accessories or in an emergency, another phone!

Reason 2: One of the best displays in this segment

While the Nord CE3 Lite had a good LCD display, the OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite features an upgraded 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and a peak brightness of 2,100 nits. Even with 1,200nits in high-brightness mode, you can rest assured that brightness issues can be a thing of the past with the Nord CE4 Lite. And of course, the OLED panel ensures that the phone shows brilliant colours. So, be it endlessly scrolling through social media, or binge-watching your favourite show on OTT, the Nord CE4 Lite 5G’s display will not disappoint you.

Reason 3: Aqua Touch functionality

After being introduced with the premium OnePlus 12 series, and then making its way to the Nord CE 4, the Aqua Touch functionality has now come to the OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite. To give you background: Aqua Touch uses clever software to detect water droplets on the display or your wet fingers. Once it identifies moisture, it adjusts the touch sensitivity accordingly. Of course, everything happens behind the scenes and in a matter of milliseconds. The result? Swipes register flawlessly along with taps and touches land (almost) perfectly 95 per cent of the time even when your fingers are wet or there are droplets on the screen.

The Aqua Touch feature is a practical feature that is slowly making its way across the OnePlus smartphone range of 2024, and this is the kind of feature other brands should start adopting for their smartphones as well.

Reason 4: Reliable camera system

The OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite gets one of the biggest updates in the camera department with OnePlus using the 50MP Sony LYT600 sensor in the phone’s primary rear camera. And yes, this time there is OIS as well. What this means is that the Nord CE 4 Lite’s camera captures photos with good colour reproduction and plenty of details. Even in low light, the use of a big sensor ensures that the photos are well-exposed and come out sharp.

Reason 5: Smooth and good RAM management

In the world of phones that usually come with 12GB RAM in their high-end offering, the OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite keeps it simple by offering 8GB LPDDR4X RAM in both its 128GB and 256GB storage variants. However, don’t just go by the numbers because the 8GB RAM on the Nord CE4 Lite paired with OxygenOS 14 software is capable enough to give you that smooth and speedy performance OnePlus phones are known for. This, of course, is possible with the help of OnePlus proprietary RAM-Vita and ROM-Vita technology, borrowed from the company’s flagship phones. With this, the Nord CE4 Lite 5G can simultaneously keep up to 26 applications active in the background. Additionally, one can expect the Nord CE4 Lite to maintain its smooth user experience for years to come.

One of the best in segment

Long story short, the OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite is a great smartphone option for anyone who has a budget of under Rs 20,000. It offers a lot of meaningful tech to users and then some more, bringing to them classic OnePlus experience to a phone with a more affordable price.

With a massive 5,500mAh battery and 80W SUPERVOOC fast charging, a capable camera system headlined by the 50MP Sony LYT600 sensor, a beautiful and bright AMOLED display, along with features like Aqua Touch, and smooth performance thanks to efficient RAM management, the OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite is a stunning package in its segment. In other words, it is a phone deserving of your confidence and money.
