The OnePlus Nord 4 and OnePlus Nord CE 4 Lite 5G have received an update that introduces three cutting-edge artificial intelligence (AI) features. Released on August 10, these enhancements come through a newly integrated AI Toolkit, designed to elevate the user experience. This toolkit is conveniently accessible via the sidebar, but the features themselves will only be visible under specific conditions. For example, the AI Speak function will become available when a user encounters a webpage with a substantial amount of text.
Initially, these AI tools were intended to launch with the OnePlus Nord 4, which was released in July. However, the integration was delayed, and they are now being rolled out. In addition to the OnePlus Nord 4, the OnePlus Nord CE 4 Lite 5G is also receiving these features, though the latter is limited to users in India.
Indian users of the Nord CE 4 Lite will be the sole recipients of these AI enhancements, while the Nord 4 users across Europe, India, the Asia-Pacific region, the Middle East, Africa, South Asia, Russia, and Latin America will also have access to them, according to a community post by the company.
Among the new features, AI Speak stands out as a text-to-speech (TTS) tool capable of reading aloud content from webpages and apps with extensive text. This feature allows users to select between male and female voices, replay specific sections, skip sentences, and adjust playback speed. The corresponding text will be displayed within the same interface for easy reference.
The second feature, AI Summary, offers a concise summary of lengthy documents or web pages, similar to what we have seen with other tech giants like Google and Samsung. Users can copy, share, or save these summaries to the Notes app or store them in the File Dock.
Lastly, the AI Writer tool emerges as a versatile text generation assistant. It can compose emails, essays, text messages, reviews, and even stories. This feature activates within text fields and provides options to tailor the tone of the generated content. Users can also generate text by analyzing on-screen images.
