NeoTeo's verdict

Which of the two is the better buy

The OnePlus Nord 6 is the better fit for performance and camera versatility; the Nord CE6 suits buyers who value longer update support and better battery efficiency. The Nord 6 leads clearly in performance and photography, while the displays and batteries are closely matched.

The Nord 6’s Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, 12 GB of RAM, and UFS 4.1 outclass the CE6’s Snapdragon 7s Gen 4, 8 GB, and UFS 3.1; their AnTuTu scores are 2,301,387 and 875,000. Its display runs at 165 Hz versus 144 Hz, and it adds an ultrawide camera that the CE6 lacks. The main camera also has a larger sensor: 1/1.95″ versus 1/2.88″.

The CE6 counters with five years of updates instead of four and an A rather than B battery efficiency rating. Both have a 6.78″ AMOLED display rated at 3,600 nits, a 7,500 mAh battery, and 80 W charging. The choice comes down to the Nord 6’s performance and camera setup or the CE6’s longer support and efficiency.
