rage, 16 Jun 2021Why there is no Poco F3 in all of the benchmarks? You don&#... moreThey didn't put Poco X3 Pro either which costs 100euro less! Shame on GSMArena, they got a lot of money from OnePlus for this paid review.

    I don't like the size of font camera, a least they have to increase to the size that will relate to size of RAM and other features

      Good luck to them. Reminds me of Huawei, selling overpriced shit. This cannot compete against Xiaomi and Realme in EU and guess what - Samsung A52 5G is going now for 300 euros.

            I am budgeting since one year which phone to buy. I wanted realme 8 5g, then waiting for realme 8 pro 5g due to 5g race. I saw poco x3 but selfie is 8, where as one plus Nordic ce 5g it is 16. Samsung m42 is lacking 720 x 1080. So confused if one plus Nordic ce 5g is without gorilla glass or not good camera etc. Some body can guide me please.
            Otherwise I have to wait more, but now time has come to buy by this week itself

              Mediatek sux, 15 Jun 2021There should be some sort of scratch resistant glass Usua... moreEven lesser brand protection is mentioned as have a hardened glass protection is an extra sell point. If nothing is mentioned is because it doesn't have protection or is as bad that is irrelevant and they want to avoid people testing it.

                Mediatek sux, 15 Jun 2021There should be some sort of scratch resistant glass Usua... moreFor scratch protection, they give the phone with a screen guard, which is plastic or tempered glass or something of that sort, so scratches are not a problem. My requirement is to avoid getting cracked screen from minor accidental drops for which toughened glass helps a lot. If this phone has one, why haven't they marketed it?

                  I have realme 7 5G, for £200 and specs are the same as the OnePlus Nord CE 5G, except for the camera (the CE has poor cameras apparently) why wasn't realme 7 5G listed in the competition, as cheaper alternative. I get that my phone is now 6 months older and runs Android 10 OS but so what? It has 120hz display, microSD and 128GB storage among other things.

                    Usually if they dont mention it, its never gorilla glass but one of the other lesser known brands.

                        I talked to several OnePlus tech support people through their website about the display protection. The answers ranged from gorilla glass 5, gorilla glass 3, no protection and Dragontrail glass.

                          Mediatek sux, 15 Jun 2021Its got dragontrail glass according to androidauthority.Dragontrail is not mentioned anywhere on the OnePlus website, neither in gsmarena nor 91mobiles nor in most other reviews. Very few reviews mention it, but knowing how they just copy past stuff from each other, its easy for one false source to spread misinformation. OnePlus website doesn't mention it, even after having such an excellent marketing department, so i think its safe to assume its not there.

                            Not enough good cameras for its price in Europe. Maybe in other regions but not here. The SoC is also below some competitors at the same price. I would prefer an older and better OnePlus than this one if OnePlus is the only option.

                              Who the hell buy any samsung in the lower range? If then poco f3 is the best overall phone under 399€

                                      Are you just parroting what you have heard? Perhaps things change?

                                        FahadMuneeb, 15 Jun 2021Poor camera performance, no OIS, year old chip, no gorilla ... moreAs mentioned this review was poor.

                                        Also add to the list that that the Redmi Note 10 Pro has IP53 at least, this does not.

                                        Seems really expensive for what you get compared to the Redmi which is pretty cheap for what you get.
