OnePlus Nord CE 3 5G (Aqua Surge, 8GB RAM, 128GB Storage)

I had been a Samsung fan since I first bought Samsung galaxy in 2015. I guess I loved its sleek classy design, well I still do.Ok so I was going for Samsung but it was 37k, and this OnePlus phone had same features with faster microprocessor in 24k. I didn't like the looks of this phone especially the big cameras, but I went for it as my budget was low this time.After 2 years of usage,Pros:*I don't think it ever hanged, and it's memory and storage both are more than enough for me. I have 160 apps, and I am too lazy to clear my phone's memory, text messages, photos, everything is intact.* Camera quality and sharpness good enough. (I don't know why I still like samsung cameras feel more)* My 1gb-3gb storage games don't hang here, they used to get jerky on my samsung.* Still charges superfast in 10 minutes. And it goes on for 1.5 to 2 days with more than6 hours of daily usage.* The cover I received with it for free, is silicone cover which is sturdy.* Touchscreen experience is smooth. (Samsung is a bit better)* Seems like Metallic body with glass protection on both sides.* Cheap and yet sturdy. Yet fast. Yet with all features you need and those you not need too.* On time android updates that samsung doesn't do.Cons:* It's heavy 184g and big, though slim. I like lightweight phones.* Auto brightness is still a feature with scope for improvement, thought it's better than my Samsung A8 star.* Only type-c or bluetooth earphones supported.* I wished there was lavender or peach color.* I prefer side sensor for fingerprint. Its in-display here.

Very nice picture and battery backup and fast charging.very nice set..

Great Phone with all Features when I compared it with my 8 pro I dont see much difference both phones and Performance is great including Touch/Feel . Brightness is too much and Camera quality is optimum for the Budget phone but decent enough and takes good pictures ..Videos are too good ..Been using it for more than year

I have thought to buy best mobile under 20k then I first thought to buy Nord 3 but because of its 1.5k display and flagship processor it's battery life was less and also it resulted heating issues...So after much and more studying about Nord 3 and Nord CE 3 I came to conclusion that it is better to go with Nord CE 3...I also suggest everyone to go with Nord CE 3 because there not much difference between Nord CE 3 and Nord 3...So the problem was with buying,I never believed online platforms like Amazon or Flipkart but I firstly went to Reliance Digital physically but they said that the model is currently not available at store,I was thinking where to buy,not even Reliance Digital but OnePlus Nord CE 3 is unavailable at all physical stores,At last I dare to buy in Amazon after reading all reviews and related videos in YouTube...The day came when I got mobile,I unboxed tensionly(worriedly) that weather it may be a defective product...But by the god's grace its a good product with no defects,And back(rear) camera is good without any problems at this price point and front is also good but not excellent,but I suggest to use camera after updating mobile to Android 14 and there is no issue with performance and I think that it is better to add a sd card because 128gb storage is not sufficient if you use more,and really the battery gets charged from 0 to 100% within 32 mins and lasts for 1½ to 2 days for normal use and overall no lags during gaming at 60fps...at last I say it is the best mobile at ₹19000 and Darshita Etel is also a authorised seller...It is best choice for everyone and Amazon is trusted platform...Thank You For reading this lengthy review 🙃😁🙃...

I bought it on 4th August,2023 during the first sale & today is 4th June, 2025 ... It works smoothly as new till today ... It was a good deal

Game phone 📱I am writing this after 1 week of my purchase I feel that In this price range other company giving only good processor which gives little more benchmark score than sd 782g but for other things you will not buy one more mobile . So this phone is a best phone for all aspects.1- Best performance for gaming I have tested with bgmi , class of clan , call of duty, Mobile legends etc .2- Above average camera which will give you good image in day light condition because it have premium sony sensor.3- You can get high quality stability in video also due to its OIS feature so it is good for bloggers and it supports slow motion in 240 fps .4- It is giving me 10-12 hour battery backup with normal use but when it comes to gaming it gives 5-7 hour but it is not a deal breaker because in those 5 hours you will get best gaming experience and in only 30 mint you can charge 100 % this mobile with its 80 w fast charger.5- It have its brand value with red cable card , 5 g stable network connectivity, Vo lte , wifi , nfc , bluetooth , ir blaster , Dolby Atmos6- It will gives you premium level haptics due to its O-haptic motor .7- Premium quality amoled display which will give you best viewing experience with 120 fps but feels little dull in direct sun light due to 950 nits peak brightness.8- One thing is missing i.e 3.5 mm jack but in my case I have bluetooth ear bud so it's okay for me.9- OnePlus gives best after sell service , one example is free display change if you will get green line issue but in my case I have not experienced that .10- It will give you quick software update for 3 years and 2 major update.I think this is enough to go with this phone cuz in 19 k budget you will not get a better deal than this.

Nice phone
