OnePlus Nord 2 5G

OnePlus Nord 2 has been released in India. The new Nord 2 5G arrives nearly a year after OnePlus released the first Nord smartphone. The Nord 2 is the first OnePlus handset with a non-Qualcomm processor. It is powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity processor, which is also used in smartphones like the Realme X7 Max and the OPPO Reno6 Pro. The OnePlus Nord 2 5G is marketed as a low-cost daily driver with decent performance and battery life. So, let’s check what it has got for the users.

OnePlus Nord 2 Design

Scooping up the OnePlus Nord 2, it immediately feels premium to the touch. It sports a 6.43-inch screen with a punch-hole in the top left corner for the selfie camera. Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protects both the display and the back of the phone. OnePlus Nord 2 5G boasts a triple camera system on the rear, and the camera module looks similar to that of the OnePlus 9R. The device is quickly unlocked with the side-mounted fingerprint scanner.

Plastic makes up the middle frame of the OnePlus Nord 2 5G. The power button and alert slider are located on the right side, while the volume controls are located on the left. The USB Type-C connector, speakers, SIM tray, and primary microphone are all located on the bottom, while the secondary microphone is located on the top.

OnePlus Nord 2 Display

OnePlus Nord 2 is equipped with a 6.44-inch AMOLED display with a pixel density of 409 PPI and a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 by 2400 pixels. The 20:9 aspect ratio display has a wider viewing space and a high screen-to-body ratio as a result of its design. A refresh rate of 90Hz is available on the OnePlus Nord 2 Display.

OnePlus Nord 2 Processor

OnePlus has traditionally used Qualcomm chipsets in its smartphones, but the MediaTek Dimensity 1200 AI SoC, which delivers near-flagship performance and comes combined with 6GB, 8GB, or 12GB RAM and 128/256GB storage, marks a new chapter in the company’s history. Oxygen OS 11.3 with Android 11 covers the software front, and OnePlus promises two major Android updates and three years of security fixes. 

OnePlus Nord 2 Camera

Instead of the dual-cam setup on last year’s model, there’s a single 32MP selfie camera, which is great for consuming content even if you miss out on the ultrawide action. There are three back cameras, one less than the original Nord, but the primary camera is undoubtedly more stunning, with a 50MP Sony IMX 766 sensor similar to that seen on the flagship OnePlus 9 Pro.  In addition, there’s an 8MP ultrawide sensor and a 2MP monochrome sensor. Optical image stabilisation ensures blur-free photos and videos, while Digital Overlap HDR (DOL-HDR) helps combine exposure data from two images into a single final shot. 

OnePlus Nord 2 Battery

OnePlus Nord 2 consists of a 4500 mAh dual-cell battery with a quick 65W Warp Charge that should last two days. When you do need to recharge, you can anticipate a complete charge from 0 to 100% in about 35 minutes.

OnePlus Nord 2 First Impressions

One Plus Nord 2 is the latest mid-range device from the brand with a stunning chipset, storage and excellent cameras on both sides along with fast charging capability. Not only this the device supports 5G connectivity. The only downside up to now is the 4500 mAh battery, which should have been more. However, OnePlus Nord 2 is right now the best smartphone available in the given price range.
