OnePlus Nord: Is the high-end Smartphone worth its mid-range price?

[Redaktion]

A cheap smartphone with lots of features that would otherwise cost you a lot more. That is what OnePlus promises the Nord to be. This summary of our test results will show whether this concept has been successfully executed.

So, are there any reasons left to pay more for a smartphone?

Yes.
People who care about features.

OnePlus Nord: no quad HD display, no headphone jack, no micro sd card, no IR blaster, no desktop mode, no ip68, no wireless charge, no Hi-Fi dac, no dual display option, no 3rd party accessories, questionable pen support, questionable reliability, average cameras for the price, 2MP macro camera that's basically unusable, plastic build.

So for 399 EUR, people aren't going to spend their money on such poor option when the iPhone SE 2 is about 100 more. Those into Android will most probably go towards the Samsung A series route.

As for the price in the USA, OnePlus has completely rendered itself irrelevant, because for $100 more you can get the widly acclaimed LG Velvet in stores that features most if not all of the features above, in a premium package, with way better cameras and a silky smooth UI.

OnePlus' marketing team, we've had enough of you.

We? Keep your nonsense to yourself lol, "on such poor option..." level of false narrative you trying to push is laughable.
No pen sUpOpoORT!
Average Sony IMX with OIS camera!  Competitor with Samsung GWX w/o OIS shoot BeTtEr!!1!!
PlaStiC build!! Well, top premium segment comes with glass body aluminum frame, premium with glass body steel frame, mid range with glass body plastic frame. If you don't know now you know.
etc etc lol you even tried to discredit OnePlus UI performance and it's fastest Android on the market.
