Here is what you need to know: onePlus Nord 6 arrived in the Indian market earlier this month as the first phone from its 2026 mid-segment lineup. Two more phones are expected to join the lineup: the OnePlus Nord CE 6 and Nord CE 6 Lite. Both phones are tipped to launch in the country this May. The OnePlus Nord CE 6 Lite specifications were leaked recently, and now This phone has appeared on Geekbench, giving us an idea of what to expect in terms of performance.

OnePlus Nord CE 6 Lite Geekbench details

As per the Geekbench listing shared by tipster Abhishek on X, a OnePlus smartphone with the model number CPH2943 has appeared on the benchmarking platform. Believed to be the OnePlus Nord CE 6 Lite, This phone has been listed with the MediaTek Dimensity 7400 chipset, featuring 4 cores at 2.60GHz and 4 at 2.00GHz. This is different from what had been leaked earlier about the Nord CE 6 Lite. A SmartPrix report had suggested This phone will be powered by the Dimensity 6300 chipset.

This is good, though, as the Dimensity 7400 is a generation ahead of the Dimensity 6300, suggesting better performance gains from the Nord CE 6 Lite. Its early Geekbench scores are 1,068 in single-core tests and 2,953 in multi-core tests. These are decent scores for the affordable segment, which is where the Nord CE 6 Lite is expected to be placed.

OnePlus Nord CE 6 Lite key specs

As per a previous report, the OnePlus Nord CE 6 Lite will feature a 6.7-inch LCD screen with a 120Hz refresh rate. These display specs are standard for the segment, but alternatives are offering AMOLED panels. The OnePlus Nord CE 6 Lite’s highlight is expected to be its 7,000mAh battery, which should easily last for more than a day on regular and moderate usage. This is expected, though, as the Nord 6 offers a massive 9,000mAh battery.

The OnePlus Nord CE 6 Lite is also expected to house a 50MP main camera with an auxiliary sensor, and a 16MP front camera for selfies. These are decent camera specs, which should do fine for casual photography. The Nord CE 6 Lite will reportedly launch under Rs 23,000, with offers bringing it down below Rs 20,000. While this expected price doesn’t seem too shocking considering the industry trend of price hikes due to a surge in component costs, it would still require the Nord CE 6 Lite to offer a more compelling package than rivals. This phone is also tipped to launch without a charger in the box, which might deter some shoppers.

So far, the OnePlus Nord CE 6 Lite is shaping up to be costlier than what it may have to offer, especially with the absence of a charger. This is something we see in premium-tier phones but not with affordable options, and also a first for OnePlus. That said, there’s no official confirmation, so we can still wait for more details. So, if you’ve been wanting to get a OnePlus phone in the affordable segment, the OnePlus Nord CE 6 Lite may seem worth waiting for. But if your purchasing need is immediate, then you should go ahead and consider other options.
