OnePlus is reportedly preparing to expand its mid-range Nord lineup with the upcoming Nord CE 6 Lite, which has now surfaced on the Geekbench benchmarking platform ahead of its expected launch in India. The listing suggests key performance details of the device, indicating that it could be positioned as a more affordable addition to the Nord series, following the recent launch of the OnePlus Nord 6.
According to the Geekbench entry, the device—identified by the model number CPH2943—is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7400 chipset. The processor configuration includes four cores clocked at 2.60GHz and four efficiency cores at 2.0GHz. The smartphone was tested with 8GB of RAM and reportedly runs on Android 16, suggesting that OnePlus is preparing it with relatively updated software out of the box.
Performance scores listed on Geekbench show the Nord CE 6 Lite achieving approximately 1,068 in single-core tests and around 2,953 in multi-core performance. These results point to a mid-range capability level, aligning with the device’s expected positioning in OnePlus’ budget-friendly Nord CE lineup. Earlier leaks had suggested a weaker chipset, but the latest listing indicates a more capable processor choice.

On the specifications front, the Nord CE 6 Lite is rumoured to feature a 6.7-inch LCD display with a 120Hz refresh rate, aimed at delivering smoother visuals for everyday use and gaming. The most notable expected upgrade is its large 7,000mAh battery, which could offer extended usage times and potentially make it one of the higher-capacity smartphones in its segment.
Camera specifications are expected to include a 50MP primary rear sensor paired with an additional secondary lens, along with a 16MP front-facing camera for selfies and video calls. While details remain unconfirmed, the device appears to focus on battery life and balanced performance rather than premium imaging features.
In terms of pricing, the OnePlus Nord CE 6 Lite is expected to launch in India at under ₹23,000, with promotional offers potentially bringing the effective price closer to ₹20,000. The official launch timeline is anticipated in May, along with other models in the Nord CE 6 series, though OnePlus has not yet confirmed the details.
