Had my Nord 2 since 2021. Upgraded from a drowned Huawei and by far the best phone Ive had. But also my first really good smartphone. Did not run into any software bugs, battery life great charge at the end of the day and everything works smooth. Now I consider upgrading to my first real flagship the OP 12. But if not could easily stick to this Nord 2, maybe I will.

I had the Nord 2 for little over a year.
Good main camera, good display - the 90hz instead of 120hz did not bother me.
Great battery life, way way better than my current Nothing Phone 1
But the bugs were just too many in the software
Oneplus never did manage to fix the bug where notifications sometimes did not show. That was a dealbreaker for me. .

The OnePlus Nord 2 is so bad,I wouldn't recommend it even to my enemies.
Pros:
-fast charging speed ( when the stars are aligned)
-if you get the pac-man edition,a beautiful glass back
Cons:
-the processor chokes and dies if used in the summer heat IN SHADE
-the phone loses connection all the time,and even with 5g,it stutters like hell ( AT FULL BARS )
-the " clean android 13 " is useless,hard to navigate and bugged like there is no tomorrow. When it upgraded to 12, I saw some issues,and hoped that 13 will fix them. It didn't.
-when the phone is cold like a brick,the temperature freezes the screen,and inputs take longer to register.

Everywhere says about good camera quality. Well, actually it's terrible. Colours are completely off and image is oversaturated and oversharpen. Even with all options off it's just bad. Complete dissapointment.

"Unlike cheaper Nords, this one retains OnePlus' trademark alert slider, and we're very happy for that (and still can't figure out why no other Android device maker, not even Oppo, which is now merged with OnePlus, has copied it)."
Why doesn't GSM Arena start including a feature item " Ringer/Alert slider Yes/No" in the spec sheets for all phones?
Perhaps the reason other manufactures don't bother with the alert slider is they think nobody cares about this feature. They are wrong! One of the main reasons I buy OnePlus phones is because of the alert slider.

I sold my one plus nord 2 phone because of the bugs it had in the software. Some bugs were extremely irritating. I bought samsung M52 now. Even though this new phone is average, but its far better in comparision to nord2. So many bugs and new bugs are introduced with software upgrade.

Nord was my First one plus phone. I bought it on 5th Feb, 2022 and today is 9th Feb, 2022 (I returned it)
2 main reasons.
1- it's not good for gaming. Especially if u play Asphalt 9.
The Maximum frame rate ur gonna get 49fps.
And after playing for around 1 hour it will start to lag extremely and will close the app automatically and will throw u on home screen.
No, it's not because of Dimensity 1200
Dimensity 1200 is really good processor.
And tbh seeing Dimensity 1200 I bought Nord 2 over Sanpdragon 870 in Mi 11X
But, it was such a Sh*t phone so I returned it.
2- I heard Nord 2 explodes.
I watched lots of reviews don't know if they were saying truth or lie.
But if they say it explodes more often.
So I don't think we should take any risk.
There are other brands too out there.
And I guess we shouldn't take any risk if it comes to someone's life.

The UI actually has been cripled by OnePlus, actually it is a complete disappointment.
Almost no native apps, all google stuff.
No native dialer, no native contacts, no native messaging, no native agenda, a so so calculator, no native email app with exchange support and no music player at all.
In dark mode the UI is black, but all the google apps are not, they just dark gray. So theming wise it doesn't match.
Some may like these google apps, but I am one of the many that don't and prefer native apps.
If youbhave native apps you can still always install the google stuff, but the other way around not.
A complete miss from oneplus.

Oneplus 6 and 7 series have the same issue after updating to OxygenOS 11. Users been reporting this issue to Oneplus since about half a year ago, so it seems they still haven't managed to resolve it

Connecting with Bluetooth is fine but Android Auto full functions and specifically Maps doesn't work. Very frustrating.. Surprised that the phone is launched more than 6 months back and these basic bugs still exists
