OnePlus 10R, Nord CE 2 Lite and Nord Buds coming to India on April 28
We have seen a lot of leaks about two OnePlus mid-rangers as well as a pair TWS buds in recent weeks. That trio is headed to India – the company just announced a launch event on April 28 and Amazon India put up a landing page. Its tagline reads “More power to you”.
For now all we have are silhouettes, but more official details should start trickling in. The two phones we mentioned are the OnePlus 10R and the Nord CE 2 Lite 5G. Starting with the 10R (code name “pickle”), this will be the company’s first phone with a Dimensity 8100. The rumored specs tack closely to the sibling Realme GT Neo3, which is already official.

This means that the promising chipset will be paired with a 6. 7″ 120 Hz AMOLED display (FHD+) and a fast-charging 4,500 mAh battery. 150W fast, if the leaks are correct (the Neo also has a 5,000 mAh/80W version). The phone should have a 50 MP main camera (with OIS) and 8 MP ultra wide on the back, plus a 16 MP selfie camera on the front. A classic OnePlus feature – the alert slider – will not be present, rumors claim.
As for the OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G (“Ace”), its catchy name will be paired with a Snapdragon 695, replacing the Dimensity 900 of the regular Nord CE 2. Other changes include a 6. 58″ IPS LCD (120 Hz) instead of the 6. 43″ AMOLED (90 Hz) and dropping the 8 MP ultra wide camera, leaving only a 64 MP main module and two 2 MP helpers on the back.
Certifications also revealed the battery spec – 4,500 mAh capacity, 33W fast charging (down from 65W). This sounds like a particular Realme phone, the RMX3574, which we’ve seen on TENAA and expect to launch as one of the Realme Q5 models coming later this month.

Last but not least, the buds. The OnePlus Nord TWS headset was recreated in 3D by @OnLeaks. The buds have short stems and 41 mAh internal batteries (per the FCC), which will be topped up by the 480 mAh power bank inside the carrying case.
There’s no word on pricing yet, but the OnePlus 9R launched at Rs40,000 a year ago, so expect the 10R to be in the same ballpark. The Nord CE 2 (non-Lite) currently sells for Rs24,000.
