OnePlus Nord N10 5G Review - Why? | The Tech Chap

The OnePlus Nord N10 5G is here - and for £329 it's £50 less than the regular OnePlus Nord. But with an LCD screen and slower processor - is it worth paying the extra for the Nord?

Budget phones have come a long way OnePlus really deserves the credit for influencing the market with budget phones...props to them for even influencing Apple, Google and Samsung whom only retaliated to how OnePlus, Oppo and Xiamo proved you can get quality for budget pricing.

It's quite obvious that N10 and Nord are meant for 2 different types of users. The N10 has the rear fingerprint scanner, headphone jack, microSD card slot and stereo speakers. Quite a lot of users value these features more than the Nord's lack of these. It's quite possible that this will be a best seller for them... IMHO.

So as stated earlier. Stores in the US including Amazon are only getting the OnePlus Nord N10 5g. This is probably why they came out with it.
In the US the Nord at $400 would have numerous phones in competition for 5G in that price range. But at less than $300 for the N10, there are far fewer competitors at 5g.

I run the Nord N10 5G and I switched from a Samsung A20 so it's a massive upgrade for me and feels like a flagship phone for the most part

Iam loosing my interest in OnePlus brand I'll look elsewhere probably pixel 4a

They are following HTC's footsteps. Churning out senseless models without any clear direction. If they don't wake up, they will be down under soon.

This is coming to the US prepaid market... We finally get a decent phone outside of Apple and Samsung

Headphone jack is more important to me than an OLED. I've also never been in a situation where I've had to record a video while jogging at the same time. Maybe I will witness a crime, record it, and have to immediately run away because I'm being chased. If that happens, I'll certainly regret not buying the higher spec phone. 😅

Although still my go to brand for any Android device, I feel like OnePlus is making confusing decisions and releasing far too many phones and models. It's diluting the brand name. They really need to keep it simple and return to releasing phones once a year. It's fine to have multiple models focused on different price points but their current line up 8t, 8, 8 pro, Nord, Nord 110 is just silly.thats 5 phones to choose from! They need to keep it simple!

Not even 3mins in and I’m thinking, “that’s a lot of compromise to save $50” Yikes.

[Techning]

The 50$ seem to be a very good investment to me. OLED alone is an argument for that.

[derbagger]

Well, we're only getting the N10 here in the States. All this Nord talk for months and I'm over here like....

[adayla]

Trust me folks this is an awesome phone. Really fast, 5g, headphone jack beautiful display, night mode, great photos and battery life. All for around $300. What else can you ask for?

[irenedunaway]

I just bought one and I love it. Went in for the Google pixel line and ended up falling in love with this one.

[Aidan]

The deciding factor for me was the headphone jack, idk why phone companies think that it's a good idea to remove it

[Y-J]

Better off getting the pixel 4a instead of the nord n10.

[merwinpique]

The only review that matters. Bro is unbiased. The road to 1 million is in sight. Keep up the great work, you deserve it.

Picture quality if major influence for me, other than the stabilisation feature (which was very good), I actually preferred the stills on the N10, I know! I was surprised too. Thanks Tom.

Intuitive operation, excellent display, true stereo sound. Fingerprint unlock is instant. 5G is faster than free wifi like in stores. Uses @ 3% on standby overnight, charges from 7% to 💯 in <30 minutes on Warp Charger. Cameras are great quality. You will not regret buying in this price range. Got the protective case with the kickstand. It's not made of brittle ABS that snaps and cracks easily but a softer material that absorbs impacts and provides good grip, even better with the kickstand deployed between two fingers.

The n10 was 329 at the time of this video was uploaded. I bought this phone for 249. The Nord is still around the 380. So the 130 pound was a great saving. Great phone. If the Nord was going for 300, I would have bought it. This replaced my Redmi Note 9 which had so much bloatware it had to go back to Amazon.
