The first edition of the Nord managed to impress us, and the latest iteration seems to be even better. For the first time, OnePlus has mated a MediaTek SoC in their device to offer top notch performance at an affordable level.
Design & Build Quality
We received the Nord 2 in Green Woods finish, which offers the top specs in the variants and has a faux leather back.
The device does not conform to the earlier Nordic finish that showed the varying hues of the Northern lights. However, this has a classy look with the textured back. The device is also available in Blue Haze and Gray Sierra colours, both of which sport glass backs as we understand.
Key Features
We were expecting OnePlus to merge its OxygenOS with Oppo’s ColorOS from 2022, but some overlapping is already visible. The main interface still sports the familiar OxygenOS, while the camera interface looks more like that on ColorOS. The phone uses OxygenOS 11.3, based on Android 11. The device uses a 6.43-inch Fluid AMOLED display that provides up to 90Hz refresh rate. The display appeared good. The phone is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 1200-AI processor and incorporates an ARM Mali G77 MC9 GPU. The device is available in three variants of RAM/ROM combinations—6GB (LPDDR4X)/128GB (UFS3.1), 8GB/128GB and 12GB/256GB.
