OnePlus Nord CE3 8 GB / 128 GB / International technical sheet
The OnePlus Nord CE3 suits anyone looking for a large display and a versatile camera, with fast charging as a standout strength. This configuration pairs 8 GB of RAM with 128 GB of storage; the phone is also sold as 12 GB / 256 GB. Its battery has a 5,000 mAh capacity and supports 80 W charging.
The 6.7-inch AMOLED display has a 120 Hz refresh rate, HDR10+, and 394 ppi. The 50 MP camera includes optical image stabilization and records 4K video at 30 fps; an 8 MP ultrawide camera and a 2 MP macro camera round out the setup. At 184 g and 8.2 mm thick, the phone is lighter and thinner than most phones of its time, and its screen-to-body ratio is also better than most. The camera, connectivity, and display are better than those of most phones launched around the same time. Connectivity includes 5G, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, and NFC. Overall performance is typical for its time, as is battery capacity, while 80 W charging is faster than what most phones of its time offer.
With a NeoScore of 6.8, the OnePlus Nord CE3 is a compelling fit for anyone who prioritizes the display, camera, and fast charging in a 5G phone.
