OnePlus Nord 5 Camera Specifications
OnePlus is bringing some serious camera upgrades to the Nord 5, making it one of the most camera-centric phones in the ₹30,000 price range.

Rear Camera Upgrades:
- Main Camera: 50MP Sony LYT-700 sensor — same sensor used in the flagship OnePlus 13.

Front Camera Upgrades:
- Selfie Camera: 50MP Samsung JN5 sensor with autofocus — a massive leap from the 16MP fixed-focus camera on the Nord 4.
- Video Recording: 4K at 60fps on both front and rear cameras — a first for Nord series.
