The OnePlus Nord is almost a great phone. And there’s no qualifier here about the price, it’s just damn near a great phone. You can nitpick things like the plastic frame of the phone, lack of expandable storage, or the hole-punch camera, but the only true downside in my opinion is the camera...

With 5G, a solid lineup of specs and a beautiful, vibrant design, the OnePlus Nord ($685 at Amazon) offers a hell of a lot for a reasonable price. At under 500 euros (about $570, £450 or AU$820), it's significantly cheaper than its $999 flagship sibling, the OnePlus 8 Pro. This phone packs a potent octacore processor, a vibrant 6.44-inch display, an in-display fingerprint scanner and 5G connectivity for ultrafast data speeds. All of that's wrapped up in a great-looking blue body that feels anything but cheap. Add to that three rear cameras that take decent shots and two selfie cameras, and the Nord is as well-stacked as any of today's elite handsets.

5G, great specs and a low price -- the OnePlus Nord has everything you'd want in a 5G phone.

July 21st saw OnePlus release its latest handset: the OnePlus Nord. This new addition to the OnePlus line is aimed squarely at those who want flagship features at an affordable price.

Inexpensive, Great camera, Nice software tweaks, Zen Mode, Plenty of storage and RAM, Looks like a flagship handset

Lots of comparable alternatives, Camera bump protrudes too far from the handset, Downgraded chipset, No SD card slot

The OnePlus Nord was supposed to be the device which brought the company back to their true north. However, when the smartphone actually launched, it was their biggest fans that ended up not liking this smartphone.
