This phone is almost the same phone as the OnePlus Nord. It has a processor which performs almost the same, display is the same and its battery and charging is the same. Camera seems to be a bit different, should test it out to know more, they also removed OIS. In terms of design at front, they changed from dual punch hole to single punch hole and at the back, it has a plastic back with good matt finish and feels good. The phone weights 170g and OnePlus say its the lightest phone they have made after OnePlus 6T, which is great.

If you really want to buy this phone, we suggest you to go for 25k varient. It makes a lot of sense as the base varient will not be available most of the time. If you are buying this phone for 5G, then dont buy. 5g is just a marketing term for this smartphone, they have just given one 5G band in India, whereas in other countries they have given lot of bands. They should have given more bands in India too as 5G is mostly said to be launching later this month by Jio at its AGM event.

Its a well rounded light weight smartphone, which is a good option for most of the buyers. The main positives in this smartphone is display, its light weight design and software. The negatives are 5G bands, decent battery capacity and decent camera, where we can find phones with better camera and battery capacity at this price range. If you dont care about Oxygen OS, then you can also consider Samsung A52, which is a well optimized phone by Samsung and it also has better camera’s and also IP rating which is a nightmare at this price. If you need a phone for gaming then you can also check Samsung galaxy F62, Poco X3 pro or Iqoo Z3 which gives almost a flagship experience at the mid range.
