We have been using the phone as a primary device for over three months now, and this is our ultimate impression.

It did stand out for its unique back design and the very attractive metallic body. The minimalist camera module and the combination of glass and metal design at the back make it look very stylish. The phone also feels quite premium in hand. However, as we started using the phone, some more aspects of the design became more noticeable over time. First of all, it is quite durable and resistant to scratches, dust or fingerprints. We mostly used the phone without a cover and it still looks almost new even after months of usage. Moreover, the lightweight body with a slim profile and curved edges together work well ensuring a comfortable grip on the phone for a long time. Overall, it is a decent phone design-wise. The button placement follows regular design language with the power button on the right side and volume rockers on the left. The OnePlus alert slider on the top left definitely comes in handy. OnePlus Nord 4 - Display and Multimedia Experience OnePlus Nord 4 - Display and Multimedia Experience 120Hz adaptive refresh rate for smooth scrolling and animations 240Hz touch sampling rate for responsive touch input Peak brightness of 2150 nits, excellent for outdoor visibility 100% DCI-P3 colour gamut coverage for vibrant, accurate colours HDR10 support for high dynamic range content While most people would talk about the design and hardware when it comes to this phone, for us, the OnePlus Nord 4 display was definitely a highlight after using the phone as the primary device. For under 30K-segment phones, this 6.74-inch AMOLED is one of the best displays we have seen last year. With a 120Hz refresh rate and a peak brightness of 2150 nits, we didn’t face any issues with the display performance. It is super smooth and maintains its responsiveness during all tasks. We also didn’t face any particular issues using the phone outdoors. The screen adapts to its surroundings well and remains visible. The punch-hole design with extremely narrow bezels on all sides makes the viewing experience on the phone very immersive. The picture quality is great and the screen remains vibrant for high-definition visuals. We are also glad that with updates, the phone now gets HDR support for Netflix. Moreover, the speakers are also quite loud and add to the display performance. OnePlus Nord 4 - Performance OnePlus Nord 4 - Performance Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 Up to 12GB (LPDDR5X) Up to 512GB (UFS 4.0) OxygenOS 14.1 based on Android 14 OnePlus Nord 4 comes with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 processor, which needs no introduction to the mid-range smartphones. Now, this is a powerful processor and in our first-hand experience, it supports almost every task you can possibly imagine on a smartphone. Everyday scrolling, app launches and multitasking is a breeze on this device. In our extended use, we hardly faced any significant lags or performance issues. The hardware is also well-equipped to handle heavy gaming. We spent a good amount of time playing games like the Call of Duty or some racing games on this phone and the experience was smooth. We hardly faced any stutters or noticeable lags when playing the graphic-heavy games on medium settings. Being a metal body phone, we initially assumed that there could be heating issues during long gaming sessions, but the phone manages heat surprisingly well. We used the 12GB RAM unit, which was more than enough for our loaded apps and media. The phone never slowed down or experienced any specific performance drops. Moreover, thanks to the multiple updates OnePlus has rolled since its launch, the software performance has improved over time and has been constantly optimised as well. The manufacturer has promised years of software updates and six years of security patches, which means you can rest assured that the phone will be up-to-date for a good number of years. OnePlus Nord 4 - AI Features OnePlus Nord 4 - AI Features Speaking of performance, the OnePlus Nord 4 does offer some cool and handy AI features that only add to the overall device experience. There are features like AI Audio Summary, Article Summary, AI Eraser and AI Smart Cutout. The AI Audio Summary feature is very useful if you attend lectures or meetings. You can just record the event and your phone can easily summarise it while highlighting the key points. The same is the case with the AI Article Summary feature. We mostly used it to quickly read lengthy news articles or even editorial stories. The outcome is usually accurate but there are times when it takes a little longer to produce the results For photography enthusiasts, there is the AI Eraser and AI Smart Cutout. Both tools work decently well even if not flawless. Below are some results – OnePlus Nord 4 - Camera Performance OnePlus Nord 4 - Camera Performance 50-megapixel (OIS, EIS) Main camera, up to 4K/ 60fps video 8-megapixel ultra-wide camera, up to 1080p/30fps video 16-megapixel selfie camera, up to 1080p/30fps video The camera performance of the OnePlus Nord 4 is quite impressive in the long run. The 50 MP main camera with OIS and EIS support is perfect for capturing everyday moments. We particularly found this excellent for long scenic shots taken when outdoors. It captures plenty of details and keeps the images quite natural looking when the lighting is right. Meanwhile, low-light photography or night photography is also decent. There is less noise and the photos come out clear and sharp. The 8 MP ultra-wise lens is fine but in our everyday use, we definitely missed a macro lens. There are multiple useful modes in the camera such as Portrait, Pro, Night, Long Exposure, Slo-Mo, Movie, Pano, Time-Lapse, Dual-View Video, Doc-Scanner, Hi-res and Google lens. It is also a good device for video recording with a 4K feature at 60fps. The EIS and OIS features are only available for 1080p video at 60 fps recording, so we mostly preferred recording at lower settings since without the OIS support the videos are often shaky. The 16 MP front camera is decently programmed and does meet all front camera needs. It comes with many modes including Face Unlock, Photo, Video, Portrait, Night, Pano, Time-Lapse and Dual-View Video. You can also record quality 1080p video at 30 fps and 720p video at 30 fps. OnePlus Nord 4 - Battery OnePlus Nord 4 - Battery 5,500mAh (Dual-cell) 100W SuperVOOC (Included in the box) The OnePlus Nord 4 features a massive 5500mAh battery capacity. While it is a good battery capacity to have on a mid-range phone, the highlight here 100W SUPERVOOC charge. The phone easily runs for a day and a half with moderate use. However, for those days when you might drain the battery with heavy usage, the 100W charging is a blessing. The 100W charger adapter is provided in the box along with the phone and it easily boosts the power from under 10 per cent to 100 per cent in just about 30 to 35 minutes. Moreover, a quick 10-minute charge also gives a good boost by bringing the phone from 0 per cent to 50 per cent battery. Verdict - Should You Buy OnePlus Nord 4?
