    I had a OnePlus. I want to say a One Plus 3. Phenomenal phone until it got software obsoleted. It ran perfectly for over four years then slooooowed more or less overnight.

    Then I tried the Nord and returned three before giving up. Something funny with the screen. I can’t remember what exactly. I think the ‘black’ gave off green and purple light. Not good enough on a device on which I constantly use dark mode to read. It wasn’t as good as the 3; and when you get used to something it’s hard to get used to something that’s not as good.

    Sure, the WiFi, Bluetooth, ram, and processor, etc, were probably ‘better’. Call me old fashioned, but I don’t gaf about that; I just want it to play music, display crisp text, let me take pictures (one camera is more than enough), and plug in my headphones with a 3.5mm jack.

    I couldn’t afford one of their flagships but I bet it would’ve been better than the Nord. Or was it Nord II? It might depend on what you use it for.

    Still, I prefer OxygenOS to any other Android that I’ve used. I’d definitely consider one of their higher end phones. If you don’t like it, I found the customer service to be really good for returns.
