three nicest people in the world. @aapkadharam (Dharmendra)

Breakthrough Smoothness, Category-Crushing Power

The OnePlus Nord CE5 is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8350 Apex chipset,

delivering category-crushing performance. Built on TSMC’s advanced 4nm process and

featuring the latest Armv9 architecture, the octa-core CPU design includes four high-

performance Cortex-A715 cores clocked up to 3.35GHz, alongside four power-efficient cores

for optimised performance and energy balance. For graphics, the chipset is equipped with a

6-core Mali-G615 GPU, offering a 60% increase in peak GPU performance and a 55% drop

in power usage, enabling smooth, energy-efficient gaming and visual rendering.

Paired with next-generation LPDDR5X RAM, the Nord CE5 offers seamless power across

everyday apps, mobile gaming, AI-driven content creation, and high-definition streaming.

With an AnTuTu score of over 1.47 million, the OnePlus Nord CE5 stands as the highest

performer in its class.

Behemoth Battery, Up to 2.5 Days of Power with Zero Anxiety

The OnePlus Nord CE5 comes equipped with a massive 7,100 mAh battery, a capacity

typically found in tablets, not smartphones. It delivers unmatched battery life that outclasses

every competitor in its category.

With multi-day battery life on a single charge, the OnePlus Nord CE5 eliminates battery

To ensure long-term battery health, the OnePlus Nord CE5 integrates Battery Health Magic,

OnePlus’s exclusive system-level charging management solution. It intelligently manages

charging behaviour to maintain battery stability and extend its overall lifespan.

The device also features Bypass Charging, a power optimisation technology that allows the

phone to draw power directly from the charger instead of the battery while gaming. This

significantly reduces heat generation, lowers battery wear, and extends battery durability.

Bypass Charging also enhances mobile gaming comfort, letting you play for longer without

worrying about overheating or battery drain.

Camera Supercharged by State-of-the-art AI

Elevating its imaging prowess, the OnePlus Nord CE5 features a flagship-grade 50MP Sony

colors, and natural skin tones, alongside powerful Ultra HDR capture. Bringing memories

vividly to life, Live Photo is now enhanced with Ultra HDR support for the cover frame,

offering richer dynamic range and deeper detail for truly immersive moments. The main

camera of Nord CE5 also supports up to 4K 60fps HDR video recording, offering frame-by-

frame clarity and lifelike color reproduction in every frame.

Bluetooth link. One can also break language barriers with the tap of an earbud using AI

Translation for real-time conversation conversion. Combining Google Fast Pair and Dual-

 Actress Seerat Kapoor, who has always amazed the audience with her stunning physique and radiant skin, finally reveals her secret mantra. The actress shares her secret behind her glow — and it’s simpler than you’d think! Seerat often keeps sharing glimpses of her workouts and diet habits on social media and has finally revealed her personal morning ritual and skincare routine that keeps her looking radiant on and off the camera.

Talking about her fitness and skincare, she says, “I genuinely believe that beauty is an inside-out journey. If you treat your body well and are consistent with your efforts, your skin naturally radiates it. I don’t rely too much on what’s trending in the market or external treatments; my daily routine has never failed me, even in the most strenuous schedules.”

Seerat starts her day with a wholesome, antioxidant-rich vegetable smoothie that she prepares herself every morning. “After my workout, I always drink a Green Juice Recipe which includes the following:
Palak
Celery
Parsley
Pudina
Cucumber
Adarak
And Amla
Blend a gracious amount of each with water, mix well and beat the heat to its cooling properties. It’s refreshing, flushes out toxins, keeps my skin clear, reduces stress on the body and gives me the perfect boost of energy to kickstart my day.”

The actress also maintains a clean, high-protein, and green-rich diet to support her active lifestyle. “I usually stay away from outside junk food and aerated drinks. No excessive oil because in my personal experience iv realised, that your skin reacts immediately to what you consume. The more natural and clean your food is, the lighter you feel and look. Also, water is my best friend. I make sure to drink enough throughout the day because it keeps my skin supple and detoxifies the system. I’m very conscious about my meals and follow mindful proportions. I also allow myself to indulge once a week. No crash diets, a disciplned lifestyle, wholesome meals and natural, clean food, makes a huge difference to your skin and overall health.”

A dedicated fitness enthusiast, Seerat never misses her workouts and also believes in taking care of her mind. “My fitness routine is incomplete without meditation. It calms me, keeps my focus intact and adds to my inner happiness — which ultimately shows on the outside too.

She also reveals how she herself takes care of her skin without using any expensive treatments. She says, “On shoot schedules, I start my mornings by icing my face. It reduces puffiness and tightens the skin. Then, I  apply a good hydrating serum, followed by cream and a sunscreen before stepping out. No matter how tired I am, I never sleep with makeup on. I cleanse the pores of the skin thoroughly, hydrate my skin again and let it breathe while I sleep. Less is more.”

Seerat also shared a treasured skincare secret passed down from her mother — a homemade rice water face mask that she swears by. “My mom taught me this recipe and it’s been a part of my regime for years now. It’s gentle, effective and keeps my skin naturally healthy.”
The ingredients included are  
1 big spoonful of raw rice
½ a cup of water
2 big spoons of aloe vera gel
1 spoon of glycerine
1 spoon of rose water
1-2 vitamin E capsules
Method:
“I soak one big spoon of raw rice in half a cup of water overnight. In the morning, I take a spoon of that fermented water and mix it with two spoons of aloe vera gel, one spoon of glycerine, one spoon of rose water and two vitamin E capsules. I store this in the fridge and use it twice a day, especially as a mask before bedtime. It absorbs into the skin overnight and leaves it feeling fresh, nourished and youthful on waking up.”
