OnePlus is gearing up for a launch event early next month, where the company will be launching a bunch of products, including two Nord phones, a new smartwatch, among others. Ahead of the launch event, the renders and specs of the products surfaced.

The company is bringing the OnePlus Nord 5 alongside Nord CE 5, and OnePlus Watch 3, and the renders and specs of the same are now out. OnePlus has also announced the launch date of the event, which is set for July 8. While the company has already confirmed some notable parameters of some of the products, the new leaks give us a clear picture of what to expect from the upcoming phones and smartwatches.

Prominent tipster Steve Hemmerstoffer, widely known as OnLeaks, has partnered with Android Headlines to share renders and specs of the alleged OnePlus Nord 5, Nord CE 5, and renders of the OnePlus Watch 3.

According to the tipster, the Nord 5 is touted to be the first Nord device to feature a flagship Qualcomm chipset. It will have the latest Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 next to a notable 5200mAh battery capacity as well. The other alleged features include up to 12GB of RAM and 512GB of onboard storage. The phone could show up with a 50MP primary lens accompanied by an 8MP sensor. For selfies, the device will supposedly rely on another 50MP lens. It is said to weigh around 211 grams and comes with IP65 ingress protection.

OnePlus is also bringing a smaller smartwatch dubbed OnePlus Watch 3 in a 43mm size. Tipster OnLeaks has also shared the renders of the upcoming smartwatch. It appears to be a mini version of the existing OnePlus Watch 3, which features a 46.6mm size. The publication notes that it should be identical to the Oppo Watch X2 Mini.

The OnePlus Watch 3 43mm could have a 1.32-inch display with a 466 x 466 resolution. The smartwatch is said to be equipped with two operating systems, WearOS and RTOS, similar to the Watch 3. Underneath, it will allegedly be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 SoC paired with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of onboard storage.

Since it is a smaller smartwatch, the battery life is believed to be impacted as well. It is promised to provide 72 hours of usage, which is a bit smaller when compared to 100 hours of usage on the OnePlus Watch 3.

The Watch 3 43mm might show up with a 5ATM water resistance alongside an IP68 rating, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth 5.2. Per the renders, the Watch 3 43mm looks familiar in design when compared to the Watch 3 (46mm). There are notable differences when it comes to the dial, the display housing, and even the watch straps.

Another prominent thing to note is that OnePlus is only bringing the Watch 3 43mm to the U.S. region, and the two Nord devices are likely to stick to the Indian market for now.
