OnePlus is gearing up for the launch of its next Nord-series smartphone and the latest leak gives us a clearer look at what to expect. The OnePlus Nord 5, tipped to succeed last year’s OnePlus Nord 4, has just appeared on the TUV Rheinland certification site, revealing its battery capacity and hinting at its charging specs.

As per a report from The Tech Outlook, the Nord 5 has been listed on TUV Rheinland with the model number CPH2079. While the listing doesn’t directly name the device, the certification is clearly associated with a OnePlus phone.
According to the listing, the OnePlus Nord 5 will feature a 6,650mAh battery, a notable upgrade from the 5,500mAh unit in the Nord 4.
The listing also suggests the device will support 80W fast charging, matching the Nord 4’s charging speed. However, this contradicts earlier reports which had claimed the Nord 5 might support 100W fast charging. It remains to be seen which of these turns out to be accurate.
Besides the Nord 5, the OnePlus Nord CE 5 was recently spotted on BIS and TDRA certification sites, confirming its name. Also, the upcoming OnePlus 13s set to launch in India was seen on BIS with the model number CPH2723.
Considering all this, it’s highly likely that the CPH2079 model seen on TUV Rheinland indeed belongs to the OnePlus Nord 5.
OnePlus Nord 5 – What We Know So Far?
The OnePlus Nord 5 is rumoured to be a rebranded version of the OnePlus Ace 5 Racing Edition, which is expected to launch in China later this month. According to tipster DCS, the Ace 5 Racing could be powered by the yet-to-be-announced Dimensity 9400e chipset.
It’s also expected to come with a 6.77-inch flat display with an optical fingerprint scanner, a 50MP + 2MP dual rear camera setup and a 16MP selfie camera. The device is said to feature a plastic middle frame, and there might be some minor differences between the China and global variants.
If OnePlus pricing strategy remains consistent with its predecessor, we could see the phone launch globally at around Rs 29,999, just like the Nord 4.
