I have to admit, since day one, OnePlus was really good at one thing; and apparently that was marketing and overhyping their products. It was pretty much the same case with the much-anticipated OnePlus Nord as well. It was so much over hyped; people pre-ordered the OnePlus Nord even without seeing it or knowing its specifications. And I thought, everyone learned their lessons after blindly pre-ordering the Fallout 76. Then again, who am I to judge them. But I can clearly judge the OnePlus Nord for all of its flaws; which puts it in a category of smartphones, where you should not be investing your money in.

ne of the main selling points of the OnePlus Nord is clearly the buttery smooth 90Hz AMOLED display, which should be able to provide stunning viewing experience for most. Plus, at this price range, its actually rare to spot an AMOLED display with a refresh rate higher than 60Hz. This made the OnePlus Nord a rather unique smartphone when compared with most of its counter parts in the same price range. But, it seems, with cheaper price comes greater compromises.

90Hz AMOLED IS GREAT AT THIS PRICE POINT, BUT IS IT WORTH THE RISK?

Recently, in JeeryRigsEverything, a YouTube channel dedicated to testing smartphone durability, Jerry found out the OnePlus Nord isn’t that durable and fails the bend test. Not only it fails the bend test, the AMOLED display gets cracked instantly, rendering the whole OnePlus Nord pretty much useless. After seeing that, I would clearly not recommend the OnePlus Nord to anyone.
