OnePlus rolls out the Nord CE6, a budget‑tier cousin to the recent Nord 6. The slab keeps the same 6.78‑inch AMOLED panel and robust plastic chassis, but trims the processor to a Snapdragon 7s Gen 4. It also drops a rear camera and reduces the 165‑Hz refresh to 144‑Hz, a change users may not feel for everyday scrolling and gaming.

Under the hood, the CE6 ships with 8 GB of RAM paired with either 128 GB or 256 GB of UFS 3.1 storage, all non‑expandable. The 8,000‑mAh battery supports an 80‑W wired charger, 55‑W PPS, and 27‑W reverse charging, giving the device a full‑day endurance that rivals many high‑end models in the mid‑tier market for power users daily.

Camera wise, the CE6 offers a single 50‑MP wide sensor with OIS and a 32‑MP front unit. Video captures 4K at 30fps and 1080p up to 120fps, both with gyro‑EIS. The design keeps an under‑display optical fingerprint and stereo speakers, maintaining OnePlus’s signature audio experience even as it trims premium features for budget‑conscious users daily.

Overall, the Nord CE6 sacrifices a few premium perks for a more affordable price, yet it delivers a surprisingly solid package with a large battery, fast charging, and a clean software skin. For buyers looking for a mid‑tier phone that balances cost and performance, the CE6 presents a compelling choice in today’s competitive market today.
