The OnePlus Nord CE is available: specs without concessions at a reasonable price
We don’t stop anymore Oneplus, the brand that rises in the entry and mid-range. After the excellent Oneplus 9 and OnePlus 9 Pro, the manufacturer puts the cover this time with a “mid-range” smartphone, but with very solid specifications (and which sometimes have nothing to envy to the high-end on certain components). The OnePlus North CE (for Core Edition) is therefore announced with a high-level technical sheet and a rather classy glossy design in three colors (blue, black and white). And since we are talking about design, a trained eye will have noticed that the device is even thinner than its predecessor (only 7.9 mm), which is saying a lot.
One of the strengths of the device is undoubtedly its 6.43-inch screen, a Fluid AMOLED panel (410 dpi) in 20: 9 format operating at the refresh rate of 90Hz. Note that this slab premium covers the sRGB and Display P3 color spectrum, which is generally far from the case with smartphones positioned in this price range. Not to spoil anything, this beautiful panel also hides a biometric fingerprint sensor, which is moreover really responsive.
Inside the case, a Snapdragon 750G (5G compatible) from Qualcomm accompanied by 6.8 or 12 GB of RAM depending on the model, an Adreno 619 GPU, and a storage capacity of 128 or 256 GB (in UFS 2.1). The Snapdragon 750G shows a fairly significant performance gain compared to its predecessor, the Snapdragon 730G. Count 20% more computing power for the CPU part, and 10% of boost on the on-board GPU. Enough to ensure good performance with the latest Android games.
Regarding the photo unit, it’s heavy, with a main sensor with 6 pieces of 64 megapixels (aperture f / 1.79), an 8 megapixel wide-angle sensor at 119 ° (aperture f / 2.25) and a third 2 megapixel sensor ( aperture f / 2.4) used for focusing. The sensor on the front is a 16 megapixel f / 2.45 aperture, enough to take pretty selfies. The first feedback and tests on this model indicate that the OnePlus Nord CE takes very good shots in natural light conditions and good shots in low light.
The list of specs doesn’t end there. The autonomy of the bouzin will be ensured by a battery of 4500 mAh (i.e. about twenty hours in “standard” use). The latter is equipped with an ultra-fast recharging system Warp Charge 30T which makes it possible to recover 70% of capacity in just 1/2 hour. Again, almost unprecedented at this price. Do you want more ? Let us therefore cite in bulk the mini-jack port (which has become rare on most flagships), the NFC (compulsory for remote payment services via mobile), and of course USB-C for recharging. Difficult to do more complete, and even more at this price (known air).
