OnePlus Nord N100, the cheapest phone from the company has finally launched in Nepal. The phone sports a 6.5′ 720p HD+ display with adaptive 90Hz refresh rate and is powered by Snapdragon 460 chipset.
OnePlus Nord N100 is the acheapest offering from the company, in quite a while now. As it seems, OnePlus has cut too many corners to make the phone affordable. When you enter into that low budget segment, the phone should do exceptionally well to stand a chance. With the likes of Realme, Samsung and Redmi holding their positions tight, it’s unlikely that OnePlus Nord N100 will make a deep impact on the market. But, with OnePlus branding and impressive software experience, the phone can still make a deal for some group of users.
Design & Display
The phone sports a 6.52 inches 720p HD+ IPS LCD panel with adaptive 90Hz refresh rate. The device is built with plastic on the back and sides. Corning Gorilla Glass 3 covers the front of N100. Only color option on the phone is Midnight Frost, which looks kind of grey.
Performance
OnePlus Nord N100 is using Qualcomm Snapdragon 460 processor. This is a budget-friendly processor with average performance for the price. It is an octa-core CPU with 4×1.8 GHz Kryo 240 & 4×1.6 GHz Kryo 240 formation. You should expect good day-to-day performance, with light gaming on the device. However, this is not a powerful gaming device that you can rely on.
The above statement is supported by it’s 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage. But, unlike OnePlus, we do get an option to expand internal storage via microSD card.
Camera
In terms of camera, there is a triple camera setup with 13MP+2MP+2MP combination. Here, two 2MP lenses are macro and depth sensor, which are not much of use anyway. For selfie, there is an 8MP camera at hole-punch cutout at the front. So, camera department is not the strength of the phone.
Battery & Other Features
The phone comes with a large 5000mAh battery, with regular 18W USB Type-C fast charging, and not super fast Warp charging. We get a fingerprint scanner at the back. The phone supports dual stereo speakers as well. We get Android 10 with OxygenOS 10.5 with the device. This is one of the cleanest and best android experience you will get for the money, which is USP of the device.
