MSP SCORE
  • Good Stuff
  • AMOLED display
  • 90Hz refresh rate
  • Premium design
  • On-screen fingerprint sensor
  • Impressive hardware performance
  • Decent cameras
  • 65W fast charging support
  • Bad Stuff

  • Average battery life
Verdict
OnePlus Nord 2 receives a lot of improvements compared to the original phone. It still has a 90Hz AMOLED display, but the design refresh is welcome, giving it a premium feel, the use of Dimensity 1200 SoC helps improve the performance, and the cameras deliver quality as well. Add to that you have 65W fast charging to support the average battery life. However, the phone has no storage slot, lacks headphone jack and that's about it. Definitely worth going for at this price.
