OnePlus Nord N20 5G Full Review - Watch Before You Buy!

[@SubVet84]

I'm always confused when people pick a new phone based on the camera. It's a phone with a camera, not a camera with a phone. My gf was looking at phones today. The N20 does everything she needs a phone to do, and more, plus is free for her to get. However, she wants the best camera options and is considering spending over $1,000 for a new flagship. This makes no sense to me. If pictures are more important than the functionality of the phone, buy a camera. A decent camera will always get better pictures and video than any phone, and will be several hundred dollars cheaper. It just annoys me that even the manufacturer prioritizes the camera over actual calling options. It takes less time and fewer actions to take a picture, than it does to make a call. It just seems backwards to me, but I feel I'm alone with this opinion.

[@mra3707]

Usually good expensive phone means good camera as well as good other features. You probably just don't prioritize phone cameras as much, but now a days I'd argue it's the most loved part of a smartphone, they're good enough to compete with digital and DSLR cameras, making high quality photography accesible to almost everyone's pockets. If you don't value the camera in a smartphone then there's no need to buy expensive phones, they all have the basic functions of a smartphone.

@@cmccabe07921 you'd be surprised how good phone cameras can be in the right hands. Also, a dslr is an inconvenience to be carrying around, unless you're going somewhere you plan to use it, chances are most of the time you won't have it with you.

[@marym8799]

Just got this phone last week for free from T-Mobile 1. 60hz screen, I tried and tried to compare them with my other phones which have 120hz but see no difference. So I guessed 60hz is enough for me. 2. No wireless charge. Never used that feature anyway. The old cable and charger is much more convenient since I can still use the phone and charge at the same time anywhere. By the way, the only feature I need NFC for is Google Pay and this phone still support so I'm ok with it. 3. No stereo sound. I'm always use Bluetooth earbuds (and I think most people do these days) so it doesn't really matter. Besides, this phone has 3.5 port so I can even use my old headphones and earbuds without an adapter, nice. 4. Snapdragon 695, I don't see any difference compare to my other phones. 5. Android 11, again, don't feel like I'm missing anything there. 6. 6 GB of ram. Ok, it's not 8 or 12 like my other phones but it never seem to have any issue either. The 128 GB storage also expandable so that's already better than many flagship phones out there. 7. Camera setup has no ultra wide. Ok, this is the only complain I have about this phone really. The camera is terrible compare to my other phones. But again, I only get excited with phones's camera the first few days that I get it. After that, I just use the phone to take photos of a bunch of documents or paperworks. No need for a fancy camera setup anyway. So, for a non gamer like me who just need a phone for work and some casual activities, this phone is perfect. It's still worth it even if you have to pay almost $300 but in my case it's even better because it was free. Lock into T-Mobile? No problem since it's the best network and best company with the best service at the moment. And from what I've heard, there are some unlocked ones now so that shouldn't be anymore problem. By the way, the phone came with a 33w fast charger inside the box. That's also much better than many other brands out there.

Bought this $230 brand new from best buy unlocked. Prior to this I was using a Pixel 5. I cannot believe how much this thing totally smokes the pixel in overall stability and performance even with a lower refresh rate. The camera and bottom speaker definitely SUCK on this thing but every other aspect works perfectly and smoothly. Something about the modem in this thing always holds a strong wifi and cell signal moreso than every other phone I've had, I'm not sure why. It's really blown me away for being such a "mid range" phone. I'm going to use this thing til it dies and keep an eye on OnePlus phones now because after using one for the first time, I'm really liking their take on stock android 11.

I have it. I like it. It performs well. It's responsive. My Guy... It's under $300. What do you expect out of $300 phone? You should be praising OnePlus for just making a device for people who can't afford a good phone at a higher price point. It doesn't stutter like the a53. It has a better battery than the a53. I have the a53. What a disappointment. I'll take a SD 695 over an Exynos 1280 any day. The OnePlus N20 is not made to be owned for a long time. I'd call it an in-between phone, until you save up enough for a flagship you're waiting for. I enjoy it. The headphone jack is awesome. High impedence headphones over 50ohms are not best for this device. Get some budget earbuds like Skullcandy. They will sound great 👍. Android 12 isn't the best from Google. It's not good, not on the a53 or Pixel 6. I think OnePlus knows it, & decided to skip it. You might see Android 13 here.

My now-almost-5-year-old Samsung J7 has reached the end of it's battery life, and the last firmware update of any kind that it got from either Samsung or T-Mobile was 2 years ago. It doesn't support 5G, and the camera is so crappy that even in full sunlight it's barely worthwhile to even take a picture on it. So it's time to replace it. I have some very specific requirements and must-haves for any phone or tablet I buy: 1. It has to have a 3.5mm audio jack. I own several corded headsets and don't want to have to shell out even more money for a bluetooth headset. Besides, corded headsets never run out of battery charge like BT ones, because surprise, surprise, they don't NEED batteries. 2. It has to be capable of having the bootloader unlocked, and of being rooted. I found to my shock and disgust that my Samsung J7 can not have it's bootloader unlocked, can't be rooted, can't have TWRP installed on it, and thus can't have the more-than-3gB of Samsung and T-Mobile bloatware burdening the internal storage be excised. I'll never make that mistake again. As fas as I can tell from reviews, the Nord N20 5G can have it's bootloader unlocked, so that it should be capable of being rooted with Magisk and TWRP installed. And since it's available in a Carrier-Unlocked version, it shouldn't be too badly swamped with T-Mobile bloatware. I'm not put out by the low-end camera. I own a a full kit of Canon DSLR gear, so cell phone cameras are more or less irrelevant to me personally, I hardly ever used the cameras on any cell phone I've owned. The only major downside to this Unlocked Nord N20 that is somewhat of a concern to me, is that it's only fully functional on T-Mobile, $G-LTE only on AT&T, and won't work at all on Verizon. So if Verizon were to ever lower their plan rates to be competitive with T-Mobile, and I were considering jumping ship to Verizon, this phone would become a WiFi only device and MP3 player, and I'd have to buy ANOTHER phone. And this isn't just an idle speculation: In the last year, I've been doing some camping in remote areas of Eastern California, and some road trips in the Western states, and I've come to realize that T-Mobile's coverage in rural areas is really weak. My friends who have Verizon are much more likely to have at least enough coverage to send a text message, if not make a voice call, in places where my phone just says "No Service". Anyway, for $259, this phone is $600 less than a Flagship OnePlus model 9 or 19, and it's significantly better than my dying Samsung J7, so I guess I'll give it a try.

[@Nwidmann]

Impressive that your j7 still works

[@laura-ann.0726]

@@Nwidmann - It's almost out of Internal storage space, which was the primary reason I decided it was time to replace it. And I don't download videos or do much of anything else that would eat a lot of storage space, except for an app called "Hybrid Assistant". It's an OBD-II monitor designed especially for Toyota hybrids, that helps the driver maximize fuel efficiency, and it provides real-time displays of engine, transmission, battery, and inverter temperature that the car's own instrument panel lacks. The app also keeps a GPS track log of the car's speed and rates of climb and descent, and these data files are what's running my old J7 out of memory. The original battery was dying a couple of years ago, and I replaced it (only $15). The J7 is actually a nice mid-range phone for it's era (manufactured in 2016), but it doesn't have 5G, the internal storage is only 16 gB (12gB available to the user), and there's no way to unlock the bootloader or Root the phone, so you can't even gain some extra storage space by dumping Samsung's bloatware. One of the reasons that I went with a Motorola Moto G this time instead of a Samsung, is that Motorola is willing to provide the code to unlock the bootloader on it's phones. Rooting does void your warranty, a not unreasonable policy for any cell phone manufacturer, but at least they give owners the choice. Most Samsung phones for the US market are locked up tight as a Minuteman ICBM silo - there's no way to break the lock on the bootloader, no way to expunge bloatware, no way to root the phone, no way to flash a different OS like Lineage or CyanogenMod, even if a ROM image of those OS's actually was available for the J7, which there isn't; at least I haven't been able to find any. I went with the Moto instead of the Nord to get the stylus function; other than that, the Moto G and the Nord N20 are very similar in functionality and price. Only thing that really annoys me: the Back and Recents buttons are reversed from the positions they are in on Samsung phones. There is a way to swap them, by modifying two lines of code in one of the phone's XML system files, but I'd have to Root the phone, which I don't think I want to do until after the warranty expires 12 months from now.

Hey Wade, quick question. How are the haptics on this device ? I know OnePlus flagships have great haptics but how about their cheaper options. ?

[@mgomez5606]

What do haptics do?

[@gop305]

I'm trying to decide between this phone and the Samsung Galaxy A23 5G. Anyone have an opinion on which is better?

[@ShowMeWhatINeedToKnow]

What is better: The N20 or the Oneplus 8T for $50 more?

[@greenghost2212]

The 8t definitely

[@bobasquid3339]

I would recommend the Moto G Stylus 5g 2022. Out of the box, Android 12 and upgrading to 13 with 3 years of security updates, 8gb ram, huge 256 storage plus a 256gb Sandisk sd card included, NFC, headphone jack, 6.8 inch screen 120hz refresh rate. While my gripes are minor I can't complain too much, it's truly a mid range beast. When sale, there's no better choice than the Moto G Stylus 5G 2022, imo. I almost got the N20, literally had it in my cart to buy, so glad I didn't! It's been a pain trying to find the right phone, Moto is the one for me.

[@JayTee713]

Only thing I don't like about the moto phones is how thick and heavy they are. I have the moto one ace 5g

[@greenghost2212]

That's the thing it isn't budget. It's midrange and maybe out of some people's price point. I personally wouldn't get a flagship unless I was on a carrier like T Mobile.

[@crimsoncrime007]

I was a big I PHONE only type of guy... But I have had a one plus for 2 yrs now. And is now my brand.

[@TechDaily]

Nice! Honestly it’s a great phone

[@punklover99]

Definitely good for the price it's going for 250 or so entirely unlocked. With a good case maybe 300 or so, definitely a good deal if you need to upgrade

[@DigitalCity-sj4es]

really nigga...300 for a case

[@jihigh482]

​@@DigitalCity-sj4es He meant the phone+a good case would cost you around 300...

Hey thanks for the review and I on the OnePlus seven pro but their software and security support has gone way downhill they’re not a brand I would buy anymore .

[@haiau7045]

I agree my nord n200 is a very capable phone but I'm always experiencing slowdowns even though I don't have much on my phone

[@LobotomyMapping]

5:08 It probably sounds worse for me judging by the fact that I'm watching this ON a OnePlus Nord N20 5G

[@socas_nic]

The ony phone that meets my requirements fully is the ZenFone 9 except for its price This seems like the only other option along side then Nothing 1 and oppo reno 7 lite and maybe the Xiaomi note 11s

[@TheLifetraveler1]

I have the Nord10 5g. I like the phone, but I said I never buy another. Strictly because of the poor and abysmal battery life. I cannot get this phone to last even a day on a full charge of battery. I have an old Moto G5 here that last 3 days so it's very disappointing when I can't get a battery to last even a good day. My everyday phone is a Samsung 853, which would at least last day, but for some reason stopped working so I had to go back to the Nord. Is this phone that you are reviewing better when it comes to battery life?

[@jefferyflood]

I'm a little hurt because I wanted the Nord n20... Literally did research hard for it. Practically discovered your channel for it and ended up getting a moto g stylus 5g2022. Because I didn't have enough in store to get it

[@TechDaily]

The Moto G Stylus 5G is still a great phone!

[@NowKissMyChucks]

That's a bummer. But at least you have a phone to use

[@jefferyflood]

@@TechDaily is it cause I've been heavily trying to see if I missed on anything significant.. I compared the specs to the moto stylus and n20. Although I love the design of the n20 I didn't think I would like the design of the stylus just as much. Thank you for making me feel better bout the phone. Can't wait to see your video on it.

[@jefferyflood]

@@NowKissMyChucks yeah that's the main important thing. I actually like the phone yet I still admired the design of n20 mainly the screen though

My OnePlus Nord10 is not letting me transfer pics and music on my laptop... Like my USB cable charges, but is not recognized on my laptop in order to open the folders on my phone. Any help?

[@jefferyflood]

When I had that problem.on my Chromebook I had to manually go into setting and all the phone transfer files in the connected device section

[@vvvios]

Did you try using a different cord/cable? And try swiping down from the top and selecting "USB Charging - File Transfer." If you don't see that option, you might be using a "charging-only" cable that can't transfer data at all (or the cable might not be working.)

[@vicentesantiagocruz4515]

@@vvvios I will try that, but I believe I already did that. My phone had an update and ever since the USB cable didn't let me transfer any files from my cell phone to my laptop. Help please!!!

I am leaving this message for anyone here, including the uploader, who may know what's happening: (1st issue) Sometimes, when I receive a text message, the message appears at the top of all my messages. This forces me to scroll all the way to the top just to read the entire message. Also, it's indicating that it was received in December of 1969. (2nd issue) In my car, I have the option to set the 4 most important contacts on the main screen and everytime I start my car, the contacts are erased and I end up having to re-store those contacts over and over again. Never had a problem with other phones except this one. Can someone let me know what could be occurring and if it's happened to you as well?? Thanks.

[@any-post-x]

no sound with calling too

[@lavender9671]

I have the same #1 issue. I started pinning the most frequent contacts so that I wouldn't miss their text. Annoying, but it seems to work for frequent contacts, not so much for the occasional, still missing their text😒. In terms of the dates, I'm still scratching my head on that one.

[@kennethkephart9182]

Living in central Pennsylvania, t bought the N20 5G from my local Best Buy. Tracfone is one of the carriers listed in the store for this phone. While trying to set up with Tracfone however, their customer service told me, and the tech support person at Best Buy that "that is not an eligible phone for Tracfone". Best Buy was great in handling things, and gave me a full refund. I'm going to be looking into other carriers.

[@greenghost2212]

Use att or t mobile. Or any of the multiple mvnos operating on thier towers like mint mobile uses t-mobile but is cheaper if you have multiple lines. Or metro

[@dr.fitprofessor1970]

Frankly, people should be grateful that this phone does not have Android 12. Not only is Android 12 a total disaster it runs even worse on OnePlus phones. That is probably why it has not been updated to that operating system. They may be planning to give it an upgrade to Android 13 and bypass Android 12 all together. In fact, my second phone is the OnePlus Nord n200 and I'm getting ready to send it back to OnePlus and have it rolled back to Android 11. At that point, I will go into the developer settings and uncheck the box that keeps it from being updated back to Android 12. Fortunately, this is a service that OnePlus is providing because Android 12 has been such a disaster on their devices. As long as your phone is still covered under the warranty the service is free. I am grateful that my primary device which is the OnePlus 8T has already been updated to Android 13. Android 13 is running very smoothly and I'm relieved to be done with Android 12.

[@heyyyyolo9028]

Does anyone get a weird multitasking glitch on the n20? (Almost exiting an app a previous app a pears for a split second and then it turns normal.) Anyone? Or maybe something similar while multitasking.

[@mikecrabtree8200]

Have iphone 13PM OnePlus 11-10Pro-10T, all of which are 5G and it's turned off on every one of them. If you can get the 10t I recommend it.

[@neorich59]

If they'd included the trademark OnePlus mute/silent switch on this phone, I would certainly have bought it. It''s what makes OnePlus unique, for me. Otherwise, to me, it's pretty much just like any other budget-mid range Smart Phone! It's OK, but I wouldn't go out of my way.

[@bernielomax4702]

Trademark? Unique? Apple has been doing that since the first iPhone.

[@CREEPINGIRON]

Honestly I hardly care that they won't update this thing since I'd just like to reset where I'm at hardware wise given my LG G7, I should be getting a higher end Xperia V when those come out or one of the earlier models of that line if the price isn't right for some reason. Thank you for covering this device! 🦓💚

Phone jack and micro SD card for a budget phone! How do you explain that? This phone has insane value. Forget about 4K and other useless things. I change the display on my Samsung from 4K to 720 and don't see any difference. Also there's no difference between 1080P and 4K videos on my LG TV. And don't forget about large size files from 4K that quickly gobbles up the memory. Go to Best Buy and hold this phone in your hand it just feels right, size and weight. Why waste money on glass and metal and make the phone heavy when it's gonna get obsolete in 2 years?!
