OnePlus Nord 3 review

[@Harry_Bl44346]

One of the best phones from oneplus in the last few years and a strong choice over a flagship with their ridiculous prices these days

[@afrog2666]

As many know, flagships are deliberately overpriced, because a lot of people think the most expensive phone is the best one, Samsung, Sony, Apple and others do it, and have admitted to doing it.

[@aplaceinthesky82]

​@@afrog2666 i had the nord 2 5G and It Is a really good phone, fast, good storage, good CAM, good display, with of course some limitation but overall really good. I have to say that the reception of the signal is not good that could also depend also on my provider but other people were able to surf the internet but I couldn't

Just out of curiosity, why do they bother putting a macro camera if it's always such low quality? I've seen it on so many phones recently. Who would even want to take photos in that quality? Or does it serve some other purpose? Genuinely curious

[@floppa9415]

So they can say they have more cameras without adding much cost. Its just markting fad.

[@JoBoy78]

Its so they can say it has triple camera. Majority of users dont look into the specs details and only see what is advertise. Seeing triple camera is better than dual camera.

Why do you change phone every year? How is that worth it? And what do you do with your older smartphones after you buy a new one? Im not complaning im legit just asking because i always use my smartphones for at least 5 years without feeling the need to upgrade. Im still using a OnePlus 5 that i bought in 2017 that still works perfectly and feels super smooth to use, and charges really fast, the only "problem" i have is that the câmera is not the best compared with more modern smartphones but other than that still an amazing phone.

Hi @daandendoop972 I'm an avid user of one plus, was considering buying 9 pro. Would you suggest Nord over 9pro then ? Also I'm concerned about the "green line" . What about that ?

[@daandendoop972]

@@nuzhatnueri5156 the screen is slidly less sharp as you can compare true PPI of the screen, but you won't even notice! Also less scratches, so better screen protection in my opinion! It's a great phone same as the pro 9 I had, for way less money considering that the 9 pro is/was a flagship...

[@ralphbercero157]

Can throttling issue be fixed through an update?

[@dr.fitprofessor1970]

Obviously, this is a lot of phone for the money. The mediatek dimensity 9000 chipset is a flagship level processor. If I didn't already have a oneplus 11 this would be pretty tempting.

[@TermotanqueDeHamsik]

I have the 10 Pro and I fucked the battery, so I went to the store and asked for another Oneplus and the seller recommended me this one over the 12R which was double the price

[@dr.fitprofessor1970]

[@dr.fitprofessor1970]

@@TermotanqueDeHamsik by the way, why didn't you just have the battery in the 10Pro changed? It's a lot cheaper than purchasing a new phone. Especially, since the 10Pro will still be relevant for several years. In addition, it's also a higher spec device than a nord.

[@pj8761]

Looks good, too bad they are not selling this in the USA. I'm a current OnePlus user (N20 5G), and would consider this as an upgrade. I guess the N30 is supposed to be the equivalent for this region ?

No, the N30 is just a spruced up N20. Same power... but higher refresh LCD over the previous OLED screen, 2gb more RAM, better cameras, stereo speakers on the N30, better fingerprint sensor, slightly bigger battery and faster charging.

But in a perfect world Id take the 5.8-6 inch phone with no corners cut. Zenfone 10 is almost it, its a tremendous phone, size and design is perfect except for the bezels, they are uneven and the chin is way too thick and that completely ruins the aesthetics for me, its a deal breaker, otherwise that would probably be the best phone for my standards.

[@opposedscroll7596]

​@@igor.vysoky the F5 has a plastic/plastic build and the A54 has a glass/plastic build, no wonder why the A54 feels better in the hand. The weight could also influence the feeling as generally people assume that lighter = cheaper and heavier = premium. The F5 weighs 181g and the A54 weighs 202g. Put the A54 up against the Nord 3, which also has a glass/plastic build and weighs 193g, then judge the build quality. You need to have a 1:1 comparison if you want to compare fairly.
