I bought the Nord CE 3 lite couple dayz ago it is acually impressive. according to me the pros and cons are slightly different from the majority. The display is LCD but it is an IPS panel and it is actually mismerizing to look at, also it is HUGE. Speakers are amazing as well, the 200% volume just the tip of the ice berg cuz the bass is rich and 50% volume is louder than my previous phone and also the stereo peaker setup is such a great idea. Battery life is good with over 8 hours of continous gaming and I am currently using a 25w Samsung charger and it already charges the phone in less than 90 minutes without the recommeneded charger. The main camera is so good that the high resolution feature with 108 MP captures are not quite the best but can keep up with my friend's iPhone 12 as well. the performance is such needed element in this price range and I played Free Fire in ultra settings (high res, high refresh rate, shadow on etc.) and still got 61 fps constant and the device didnt heat up anymore than 38-39 degrees even after 3 hours of continous gameplay. And now for the cons, like I said before its about my preferences and the first thing is it is plactic instead of metal, im clumsy and I drop my phone a LOT. My previous phones (all 3 of them) decommisioned after the display left the chat but then the last phone had metal frame but this phone doesnt have it. And I dont have the luxury to afford any extra repairs and services. Next is the secondary camaras, I am not a photographer but then not having an ultrawide cam is a downside and the macro is not great cuz the first photo i captured was a macro shot and i almost lost my faith in it. Last one is that this phone is really tall and I have small hands, I wanted performance and this deliver it but still 6.72 inches is a bit overkill the way I look at it. So.. this is my review of after using this phone for the last couple of dayz and dispite lacking the IP68 water resistense it can still withstand light splashes so im not worried about it. also thank you for bringing a video about an entry level gaming phone like this, and my verdict is that this a solid device to handle gaming for atleast 3 years before you notice a big difference.
I saw it maybe a week after I bought a galaxy A23 5g. They share the same processor. To be honest, despite I like Oneplus, it doesn’t remind me of a typical Oneplus device. It seems to me like a Realme 10 with Oneplus badge 😮
can't say that the experience is at the same level as OnePlus 11, but definitely outperforms the ones on the same price range. RUclips videos can be watched with 1080p, pubg can be played mid-high graphics settings.
The most informative and useful video I've seen so far! Planning to buy a new phone after being super disappointed with my Redmi 9C that I used for 3 years. Hopefully I'll be pleasantly surprised by this phone, I really need something for day to day and college use. Thank you for the information!
@@JagadguruSvamiVegananda Back when I bought it only the 128 GB version was available (in my country at least) it's still good enough for me for the time being. Btw, it's already been 4 months and the phone still works fine for me!
@@JustTheArtistWannabe, I am glad to hear that it's going well! A couple of hours after posting my previous comment, I bought the 256Gb version, as the other one is unavailable in my country.
everything is perfect, except the fact that they only offer 3 years of security updates, while providing a battery that will last 4 years. something doesn't add up! And also, where's the alert slider?!
While I'd agree about the alert slider part, the phone still can be used after the 3 years of security updates. And the battery will last more than 4 years, it will just have the same level of battery as other smartphones will have in 2 years.
@@oneplusfan5270 wow I would seriously recommend against using ANY phone on ANY platform once it stops receiving security updates. unless you're just using it for calls & sms & entertainment. But almost nobody uses their phones for just that anymore.
This could be a huge discussion topic, but can say from my experience: When I buy a smartphone, I don't want to share ownership over it with bloatware and advertisers. And the OxygenOS is pretty smooth on this one.
Deze 2 smartphones hebben vergelijkbare kenmerken, maar ik zie dat de RAM- en ROM-configuratie varieert voor de Samsung A23. Dus ik vermoed dat de vergelijkbare RAM- en ROM-configuratie hetzelfde zou kunnen kosten als CE 3 Lite. In dit geval is CE 3 Lite misschien een betere optie, omdat je hierdoor sneller kunt opladen, een schoner besturingssysteem hebt dat ook langer meegaat en betere prestaties levert dankzij software-optimalisaties. Ik hoop dat dit helpt. 🤝

No 4k video no amoled screen and 330 euros is a bit much for this phone there are phones out there that will give you what the one plus nord 3 ce lite can't for the same price

Amazing comment. Thank you for sharing your experience and Welcome to OnePlus Family 👍
same exp. and it turned out that it's a great decision.
The current smartphones have no significant breakthrough technology, choosing the product with the best cost performance is the wise choice !!!

Does it have a pre-applied screen protector? I just bought this earlier, waiting for it to arrive
Yes, it has to have it pre-applied.
Helped me make a decision. I ordered the green color for about 245$.
You Earned a sub !
This is the best comment! Hopefully you will enjoy the smartphone. 👍

Mine was the equivalent of USD$190.50 for the bigger 256Gb storage version. 😊
Please : is the 200% sound boost also working on phone calls?? 📢📱
Yes
Good job. OnePlus would definitely recommend this review. 👍
Great Review! I just wish there was some night mode photos included in this review.
Good point, thinking about filming shorts with night photos. Thanks for the feedback!
The best midrange phone with no "annoying" ads to disturb you.
Yes! Those ads make you feel like you "borrowed" the phone.
What ads? 😮 When do they appear when using the phone? I have never heard of that kind of thing...
hi how much storage is free on the 128gb version out of the box thanks
how is display media watching experience from your use?
can't say that the experience is at the same level as OnePlus 11, but definitely outperforms the ones on the same price range. RUclips videos can be watched with 1080p, pubg can be played mid-high graphics settings.
this is probably my next phone

Hey Velario, Thank you for the comment. How do you like your Nord so far? 🙂
How about the pink line after update is it already solved?
Does this phone has any glass protection like gorilla glass , panda glass...
Yes, it has a glass protection, but it is not Gorilla Glass. Also, it has a screen protector pre-applied.

Well, I still use a tablet that is over 6 years old, yet it's still fine, nothing bad happened so far.
No one mentioned alert slider in this phone why do u even ask😂?
You will get that alert slider in OnePlus Nord 3
Not here
is the UI smoother/better than MIUI ?

@@oneplusfan5270 Ikr, hate ads in default apps or settings like in MIUI. There are also annoying SMS reminders.
They want a piece of personal data..
I don ’t like mui of xiaomi
Are you sure it's IP54 ? it is not mentionned in most reviews or reference websites.
Yes, tested it myself too 😀

is the screen scratch resistant?
Depends on the scratches, should be ok if just carrying in the pocket or put on any surface.
Bought 1 at launch, like 3 months ago. Woke up today and sim card not detected.
Sorry to hear that. Have you tried contacting the service center? they should be able to resolve the issue.
Does this phone work outside India?
Yes, it does.
Why do you call your nation by the name given to it by the British (from the PERSIAN word “Hindustan”)?☝️
What’s wrong with its PROPER name (Bhārata)? 🇮🇳

LCD screen u are blessed with no green line
