"Good design and build quality"

But the phone bends easily ...
Just be fair to GSMARENA users and say the truth.
Or are you affraid that you will loose OP as sponsor if you say something ?

    I got the realme x3 for 26k in india for the 8 + 128. Initially I felt that the amoled on the Nord would've been better than the 120 hz LCD on the x3, but after seeing all the problems with the Nord I don't regret my choice at all. Plus the x3 is very good, has no issues till now and realme ui is also very nice after the revamp. However the camera is mediocre, but I installed a gcam and everything works fine. The chipset is also way more powerful, and blows the Nord out of the water. Battery life is also good and it also comes with a 30 watt fast charging.

      I have problems with the display,it stutteres few days after restarting the phone,which is very irritating.
      Hope OnePlus fixes it in next up

        I got 8GB nord , my voice is not audible in the call , don't know what to do.

        in the beginning i thought the listening guys phone is not working properly.

        and the another problem is , in a call when i click on speaker it doesn't on and sometimes when it on's then it wonk gets off until the call gets disconnected.

          When i apply dark mode
          Using apps nd come back to Home screen it's blinking
          Im really disappointed
          Pls fix it

            In my OnePlus Nord I'm facing terrible Bluetooth disconnect and cut off issues while the WiFi remains busy. This is so disappointing...

              Good build quality? Then what about the phone bend I saw recently?

              Talk about design I prefer the 8.3 by the way 😋😋

                Are the better cameras or software on the pixel 5 worth paying twice the price of the nord for ?
                No. In comparison with the pixel, spec for spec the nord is a bargain (or the pixel is stupidly pricey).

                        The Nord has a purple colour cast not green although it's not consistent, more of a gradient. Despite 8 updates it's still there. Very limited 5G bands compared to the Moto G 5G, can't be used in the USA. If you don't sit on the Nord, the plastic frame is fine. The battery drain is quite high though, but it charges quickly. The best you can say about it, is that it's OK not great, don't fall for the hype.

                            I got the 25k version -6/64 gb.
                            It is awesome and I am satisfied completely.
                            There are some screen issues very little though. Oneplus van fix those via software upgrade (Samsung also did it). Eventually Oneplus will do that too. Though its very minor issue and will be dominated by other great amazing features.
                            40% plus brightness, you won't even notice anything wierd. I'm a nerdy so I myself keeps noticing them if I go below 40%. But my sister didn't noticed it (not nerdy). After I told her she was like "uhh I don't mind that".

                            So chill out on the display part.
                            Totally recommend it. Won't regret it.

                              It is annoying that it is doesn't have headphone jack which is very well eequired if one doesn't have wireless earphones..😕

                                Oneplus phones are disappointing this year. Not only expensive, but also nothing special with poor cameras. Only OP 8 Pro is a good phone.

                                      Thanks I'll stick to motorola edge

                                        The existence of this phone makes no sense.

                                        Sad.
