OnePlus Nord 2 vs OnePlus Nord CE 5G – Camera Test

OnePlus recently released the OnePlus Nord 2, and we’ve been testing the camera for quite some time. The OnePlus Nord 2 is the successor of the OnePlus Nord, which was released last year in August 2020 as the company’s entry-level phone. In the run-up to 2021, the company has already entered a new basic sector with the Nord CE 5G, which debuted in June. The Nord 2 costs ₹27,999 for the 6GB RAM + 128GB variant, ₹29,999 for the 8GB RAM + 128GB variant and ₹34,999 for the 12GB RAM + 256GB variant. And on the other hand the OnePlus Nord CE 5G is priced at ₹24,999 for the 8GB RAM + 128 GB variant and ₹27,999 for the 12GB RAM + 256 GB variant. So there is small difference of few thousand rupees between the two smartphone and what do you get when it comes to the camera performance from both of the devices? So in this review, we will test the cameras of both the phones and let you know which one performs better.

Rear Camera:

In terms of camera specifications, both phones have a 3-camera setup at the rear, with the Nord 2 sporting a 50-megapixel main camera with an aperture of f/1.8. The 8-megapixel ultrawide camera has an f/2.25 aperture, while the 2-megapixel monochrome camera is also included in the Nord 2. The Nord CE, on the other hand, has a superior primary camera with 64-megapixel resolution and an aperture of f/1.8, while the ultrawide and monochrome cameras are identical.
