Android version and market relevance

OnePlus Nord was announced by the company OnePlus in July 2020 and in the same year official sales began in stores. The device was placed in the series of smartphones OnePlus Nord. OnePlus Nord works on Android 10 and the manufacturer even took care of customers by releasing an update to the version 11. And before listing all the main characteristics of this model, it is important to note that in OnePlus Nord implemented support for working with two SIM cards and support for 5G networks (all 5G-smartphones).

And if you want to look at the competitors of this smartphone, then in our catalog on the page “Smartphones of the year 2020” all models of the same year are presented. And it will also be useful to look at the page with smartphones at a similar price, like OnePlus Nord — this is the price segment page “Middle class smartphones from $300 to $400”.

Screen, body and battery

It is worth paying attention to good 6.44-inch capacitive Fluid AMOLED touchscreen smartphone OnePlus Nord with display refresh rate 90 Hz. A real shoveler, which is great for watching videos, surfing the Internet and full-screen games. You will be very surprised at how much information is placed on one screen. But, unfortunately, with one hand you will not be comfortable with using a smartphone. In addition, OnePlus Nord has very small frames around the screen (speaking in numbers, the screen occupies from 80% to 90% of the area of the entire front panel. And an almost invisible hole in the screen adds recognition to the smartphone and increases the screen area, but does not increase the physical size. The thickness of the case is 8.2 mm. This also accommodated a battery capacity of 4 115 mAh.

Main camera and selfie camera

A selfie camera is located in front of the screen with multiple modules (smartphones with dual selfie cameras): 32 MP Wide + 8 MP UltraWide. Among all the cameras, this we attributed to the segment good cameras. This model has a front camera as usual at the top of the screen, like 99.9% of all smartphones. But, if this makes you bored, then we can offer smartphones with pop-up front camera. In these models, the front camera is located inside the body and goes up only when you activate the front camera mode. It sounds interesting, but how convenient it is and how long this mechanism will work is not yet clear.

The main camera got several modules (smartphones with four cameras): 48 MP Wide + 8 MP UltraWide + 5 MP Depth sensor + 2 MP Macro, located on the back of the body. We defined it in the segment super cool mobile cameras. Directly without hesitation can buy this smartphone and enjoy your photos and videos shot on it. Why do you need a camera with multiple modules in a smartphone? And what are the advantages of such a camera? This allows you to take very beautiful portraits with bokeh (blurred background) effect. And an additional lens with a different focal length provides a high-quality approximation (zoom) for photography. In addition, software algorithms can improve the quality of the photo after processing frames from each camera module.

Processor and Internal Memory

Brilliant multi-core processor Snapdragon 765G installed in OnePlus Nord. 6/12 GB of RAM will help make the interface work smoother. There is also built-in memory in the smartphone, which stores photos, videos, music and all your other data. The amount of this built-in memory is 64/128/256 GB. Memory cards in this model, unfortunately, are not supported.

Price for OnePlus Nord: buy or not to buy?

So we told about not very expensive powerful smartphone OnePlus Nord with a huge screen, chic main camera and very good selfie camera, and still there is a great capacious battery.

All these characteristics in 2020 may be good, but the time goes by and the smartphone will somehow become obsolete in half a year of the beginning of sales. And by the way, to sell it start in August 2020 at a price of $370. This is the official price from the manufacturer without taxes and fees, so it can differ in each country, and not only for different sellers.

Before you buy OnePlus Nord, be sure to check out all the photos and video reviews on it, or better still go to the offline store (electronics supermarket) and twist it in your hand. And already then, based on the emotions received from the smartphone, make the decision to buy.

And if OnePlus Nord is not already sold, when you are reading this text, then do not be upset. We advise you to always visit the page DROID smartphones, where we collect only the most current models on new versions of Android OS.
