OnePlus Nord 4 review

Sort by:

The metal back seems cool, but the problem with this is no wireless charging. Instant fail 👎

      What kind of glass protection do they use on this phone? Very important

        Farid.Saiyed, 16 Jul 2024LOL 😂 Even My 3 Year Old Moto edge 20 Pro Has 16MP Wide ang... moreYeah, I also have a relative that has the Edge 20 Pro and the camera performance sucks. I'm very confident that the Nord 4 performs better overall in this segment

            1. The worst throttling and stability score I have ever seen on gsma in almost visiting the site for more than a decade.

            2. For Indians, this phone uses the same camera that is used in the recently launched Moto G85 which costs 17k INR. Anyone familiar with processing capabilities of moto phones already know that it is better than oneplus'

            3. Love the design identity, very skeptical about metal body as this has this horrendously bad soc which can heat up so bad, users will be scared to hold onto it. Also, once it get's scratched, its over.

            4.Honor 200 will have a glorious run thanks to this. Much better phone in every single regard.

            5. Recently, I have been seeing an extreme amount of oneplus customers who are being harassed and mentali torchered by the service centers. These people are all over X/twitter lately, it is way too much in the last few months.

            6. Only brainjed sheeple will get this over something like iqoo neo 9, op 12r, honor 200 and the like

            Typos are intentional to avoid getting nuked

              RaviSS, 16 Jul 2024Nord 4 looked good on paper, but the inconsistent performan... moreJust checked 12R on the official site.
              The only version available for my country is the 16/256 for 750euro, which is very expensive.

              Nord 4 starts at 570 for 16/512gb with the 50 coupon.

              Thats a noticable difference in price and Nord 4 will have bigger software support, has a flat display and UFS 4.0 speeds.

              I agree that Nord 4 could be a bit better in some areas but the biggest drawback for me is the day one pricing which could be way better.

                LOL 😂 Even My 3 Year Old Moto edge 20 Pro Has 16MP Wide angle Camera With Autofocus And 8k Video Recording.

                  Nord 4 looked good on paper, but the inconsistent performance in almost all the departments - processor, display and camera, leaves much to be desired. From the Oneplus camp itself, 12R is a much more well-rounded package, at not too large a premium.

                    My dream phone:

                    - probably Oneplus/Realme/Oppo because I like their system and battery innovations like fast charging and 1600 charging cycles
                    - metal design like this, full glass is also fine
                    - 6,4-6,5" display. Nord 4 is too big.
                    - 3 competent cameras - great wide, 12 MP ultrawide, 3x telephoto
                    - I don't care about numbers as I don't play games on phone so it can be 256 or even 128 GB UFS 3.1 paired with someting about 700k in antutu.
                    - 500 Euro max

                    But probably I'm alone with these requirements because there are no phones like this

                      Anonymous, 16 Jul 2024And these 2 should have been better with a big core instead... moreBut yeah dimensity 8400 should have a X4 core.

                        Nord 4

                        +Great design and metal build quality

                        Display
                        +good overall and flat
                        -the brightness could be a bit better and its not Ltpo

                        Sound
                        +Overall not bad

                        Performance
                        +Better than previous Nord 3 Dimen 9000

                        Battery
                        +One of the best along Realme 6T

                        Fast Charging
                        +Great for the class
                        -but no charger in the box

                        Ram and Storage
                        +Up to 16gb 512gb UFS 4.0
                        -lowest option is 128gb UFS 3.1

                        +Software support is actually top of the class only behind Pixel 8A. Its even better than Samsung A55.

                        The camera isnt anything special.

                        Overall a very similar phone with Realme GT 6T, that has a flat display instead and a metal body and longer software support.

                        It has a lot of potential if the price drops a bit more like 400 for 12/256.

                          Worst throttling and stability I've seen in recent times. Moto g85 is using the SAME camera, which costs 17k INR and I can vouch for the fact that moto's processing of photos and videos is better than this piece of metal shid.

                          I like the design and unique personality but that's about it. Good luck brainjed sheeple who will choose this over something like honor 200 or something.

                            Anonymous, 16 Jul 2024Yes it is, 8s gen 3 is better, 7+ gen 3 not so much outside... moreAnd these 2 should have been better with a big core instead of none, 1 small core less and newer cores. The problem with these 2 socs is gimped gpu core count that then gets compensated with higher gpu clock, especially with 7+ gen 3.

                              Anonymous, 16 Jul 2024Yes it is, 8s gen 3 is better, 7+ gen 3 not so much outside... moreEven Gpu not bad, 11K wildlife that's between 8+ gen 1 and 8 gen 2.

                                Yeah... Raise the limit to 50/60c and say goodbye to your battery or even your hands.
                                The only device I've seen that would not shut down upon reaching 60c battery was the oneplus 10 pro and one day reached 72c and the motherboard melted. Just taking photos, well outside was like 36c.
                                That device broke 3 times on me because of that snapdragon gen 3 piece of shit with samsung node

                                  DigBick, 16 Jul 2024This has worse sustained cpu performance than cmf phone 1That's not how you measure perfomance though,

                                  Throttled perfomance of this perfomance will still be better than Cmf,

                                  Like Gpu it peak around 11K and sustain around 6K, while Cmf peak and sustain around 3K in same wildlife benchmarks, hence throttled Nord 4 is twice powerfull than Cmf.

                                      Anonymous, 16 Jul 2024Hahaha the people that think that 7+ gen 3 is better than d8300is that even debate? D8300 is good soc and understandable if someone choose it over 7+ gen 3 or 8s gen 3 but perfomance wise it's not better than them.
