6:15 what the hell did I just watch 😳
brooooooooooooooo
I was thinking about the same time 😂
Caught in 4K
This might be the best phone OnePlus released this year...
nice comparison. you answered my query right in the initial part which any other video surprisingly failed to do. thank you. nice work!
I love my Nord, the cameras aren't great but still usable. It really does offer bang for buck. Sure it'll only get 2 major updates but that's still probably more than you'll get from other manufacturers at this price. The Nord 2 does look good but I'll stick with my 256gb Nord for another year Oneplus did a great job. It does make me smile when people actually think Oneplus is a different company from OPPO 🤔
Can beautification be completely disabled when you turn it off in the camera? Does it have always on display or on ambient?
VERY sad that the bottom bezel is thicker than the bottom bezel of the first Nord
Same
Finally someone that sees it, thought I was just me, it's a sorrow :(
I have learned so much since watching your videos and have been so inspired to up my CZcams Game.
I'm very happy with my Oneplus Nord, my next phone will be a Pixel 6xl. Top video.
Yea same! I'll prolly upgrade to the pixel 5a or the 6a in the future 🦸♂️
hi, why pixel? is it better than oneplus nord? I was kinda interested in google devices
I have a Nord 1 but won't be upgrading it this year. It's a fantastic phone and I just haven't felt the need to upgrade, it's still doing everything I want and need. Good video though, great details of how the devices compare.
I have nord too..idk man..sometimes taking nightshot processing quite slow. And deleting gallery photos take ages..
I guess I’m where you were 1 year ago, so now I have the option to go directly to the Nord 2, you think it’s worth it?
@@SergioAbarca9 If I were in your position now then 100%, yes. It looks like a great phone and has improvements over the first generation NORD (which in itself is also a fantastic device.)
"If you have the Oneplus 6T or older device"
*Looks at my Oneplus 2 from 2015*
We will have to protest against their oppo style oxygen os ! Or we will ditch one plus
I still have the Orignal OnePlus Nord since launch, I won't be upgrading any time soon (I normally have phones for about 18 months to 2 years before doing so).
I'm using the nord 1 Ac2001 model.
Until the OS 12 update, 5g was unavailable to me for some reason but I should mention the phone has never been made officially available for sale in Australia.
I love the camera, the ram makes app/screen jumping a pleasure instead of a drain on my sanity.
I stopped caring about the best of the best phones in 2015 and am richer and wiser because of that.
I'd like to switch to lineageOS after the security updates become unavailable before upgrading in 2024/25
Are you now able to use 5G service on your original Nord now? I am thinking of buying Nord 2 here in Aus with the aim of taking advantage of 5G wherever available.
just ordered my nord 2 to replace my ageing 6T. ordered the grey sierra one though as that new blue is terrible.
BELEAVE me men this chip is insane....U will find it 👍
Good explanation, thanks
How their vibration in front of each other, you did not mention
I'm gonna upgrade straight to nord 3 from my original nord
Nice comparison video
Will this work in North America?
Damian thank you for always pointing out a phone brand's likely software support period... anything less than 3 years of PROMISED OS updates and at least another year of OS security updates... is a no-go regardless of price/value. if a company can't support a device to at least 4 years at the price they plan to sell it for then they need to raise their price. There should actually be a law that all of these phone makers support at least 5 years. We have a huge E-Waste problem and we need more responsible companies.
The support isn't possible because of the chip makers limiting support for the soc. So the onus is not completely on the oems. This is the reason why only flagship chips get at max 4 years of support cuz Qualcomm forces the oem's hand
@@suyashgairola6270 With Google's increasing abstractions of Android from the hardware layer, this is less and less of an argument. In addition now that OnePlus is combined with Oppo they have enough clout to pressure any chipmaker to support at least 4 years if they really wanted to, and more to the point if they were willing to help pay for it as well. I really don't picture OnePlus/Oppo beating down the doors of Qualcomm and Samsung begging for them to support the chip/driver updates longer
@@nishiki393 I agree they should have some influence, but i still put more blame on the chipmakers. The rumoured pixel 6 should get over this because of Google's own soc. Samsung is providing for 3 years of android updates on midrange devices with Snapdragon soc then it is indeed possible
@@suyashgairola6270 maybe you are right I'm not in the nitty gritty of the negotiations and how all that works... I appreciate you and the discussion and being able to have a civilized back and forth! I think most of us just want to help save our human-caused ailing planet
yeah I'm aware of the upcoming pixel advantage, basically at that point it will be the same thing as Apple
but it is also good that Google is moving in the direction of further abstracting Android so there will be less fragmentation and easier updatability for longer term support for all vendors. God knows you can't use an unsupported Android phone (or almost any connected device really... but especially phone or computer) confidently anymore with the intense cyber vulnerability we face at every corner. crazy world on so many levels... 🙏🏻
@@nishiki393 well it is a Shame people abuse online platforms and can't stay civil even if you have a differing opinion. Let us hope for the best, although i am not very confident about mobiles in this data mongering times. But a few counters are always better than an open shop😂
I really think this phone should have been called Oneplus 9 Nord
Total witch one is best
Hey man, just wondering why the navigation bar looks so weird on the Nord 2?
Because oxygen os is now a skin of color os
Exactly..and it's on the home screen too all the time
It's the future of Android. :v
Time stamp plz?
Gone are the years when OnePlus paid attention to its devices. A shame
I now have a Oneplus 5t. I would like to upgrade. should i go for the oneplus nord 2 or the oneplus 9 pro?
Well I just upgraded from the one plus 3 to the Nord since it was/is on sale on Amazon for 280€ Soo I couldn't see the upgrade worth of 120€ 😅
I still like my old phone and if I wouldn't have gotten a corona bonus and Christmas money from work I wouldn't have upgraded, but since it's a good deal and the battery and notification slider is starting to make trouble. I just hope that you now can change the notification settings in the system settings and not only with the slider 🤦🏻♂️😅
Is the nord 2 chin a bit thicker than nord 1?
Yes
Can it emulate GameCube games without lag tho....
Wish it had wireless charging i mean the Samsung s20fe has it n its a competitor in this range if i ain't wrong
Thx for this video.
I recently broke the display of my Op 6T and I can't use the front camera and the proximity sensor anymore. And it will fail me sooner than later.
And I was wondering if and upgrade was needed from this old but still strong phone. I care about the cameras a lot, and now the 8T is near the price of the Nord 2.
Which one should i consider as the best choice?
My heart is telling me to trust the Nord 2 because is new and is a beast for its price, but I'm been stupid thinking about having Mediatek instead of Snapdragon and how long will it work without problems...
I've been a Xiaomi user for several years and I am looking to switch to OnePlus. I thought that the Nord 2 was a nice phone, even going by this review, but looking at the comments, it appears that almost everyone is dissatisfied with the OnePlus Nord 2. Now I feel lost. It's just the right price for me. What options do I have then, within its price range?
Go for it.
i like the color on nord 2 looking lighter very nice color indeed.
Not bad phone. Though at that price I would've wanted a 120hz too
It has 65 watt charging thought not even a €1299 Samsung phone can charge that fast
Why 120, in areas with 60 you can get interference on the screen, 90 don't have that problem, neither in 50 or 60 areas.
i wanna buy a oneplus nord and in my town it’s $355. and the nord 2 is $400. is the nord 2 worth the $50?
Of course!
With Nord 2 u can get android 12&13
Where as for Nord 1 , android 12 is last
Obviously especially cameras are improved
Nord 2 or OnePlus 8t, which one would you pick?
8T
That bottom bezel looks horrible though
Ya they just messed up with bottom bezel
Mediatek doesn't have good custom rom support...
Would you buy Oneplus Nord 2 or Google Pixel 4a?
Please share the link to the video at 6:16 😂
I’m 14 why is this so interesting
Can i use Nord 1 case for Nord 2?
No the North 2 is a little bit bigger
He's said its on pair with the 870 so this phone has a better chip then the one plus 8
Black Lingerie Haul! Lace and Sheer Heaven! I Holly Wolf at 6:16 I appreciate that :D
Default font Oppo Sans i guess?
could you change one plus 6 to one plus nord 2?
Absolutely
I'm new to oneplus handset and this guy has been talking for the last 3 mins and I still don't know which is which... Remember everyone had oneplus.
Why is the chin of the nord 2 thicker than on nord 1???
Ask one ➕
Dirty company tactics to keep you upgrading
Cost cutting which shouldn't be done
I've had the nord for just under 3 months lol
Compare camera
Nord vs nord 2 : color🔘
oneplus nord1 was a poor value phone....they realise they cant sell such level of phone versus Xiaomi and Realme...step up this year and make the comp interesting. Which also helps they used Dim 1200 over SD778
SSTERO SPEAKERS YES
PEROFMANCE YES
UFS 3.1 YES
CAMERA YEEESSS
Merger with colour os big no no
@@SriHari722 better updates also yes
@@Ignacio.Romero I use pixel. I won't agree on that part. Update is no no
@@SriHari722 my condolences
@@Ignacio.Romero you too
I gonna change my oneplus nord soon.....the screen issues still not satisfy me......i still can see some patches.....sorry oneplus 👎👎
Lol,we don't recommend upgrading from the Nord to the Nord 2 due to the environment? Yeah that's the first thing I think of when getting a new phone.
If you bought a Nord last year, why the hell would you need a Nord 2 this year? These things can easily last 3+ years. Not buying a new phone because your current one still functions fine and it's bad for the environment is a perfectly good reason.
One plus nord is ❤️
One plus Nord is best compare Nord 2
One plus nord 😍
Ppl who like Nord 1 with clean OS can I hear 👂 ooooo yaaaaaaaaa!
ooooo yaaaaaaaaa! Had OG Nord since launch, and I'm still loving it.
No ideas what phone your talking about mate
Too expensive!
Mediatek processor off to next vid
With OxygenoS 11, they made their UI ugly and now with the official merger with Oppo, they're taking that to the nexrt level. At least they're providing some new features so that's good tho.
Who watching this on a OnePlus Nord 2
hi😊
Nord 1's front camera is better than Nord 2. Plus the ultra wide front camera was there
So Nord 2 is definitely a downgrade
Nord < 6T < Nord 2. But I'll still stick with my 6T
06:15 thanks me later
