Pros and Cons

OnePlus Nord CE 2 5G

Strengths

The phone's SuperVOOC 65W fast charging can charge the battery from empty in just over half an hour.

Weaknesses

Gentian Impact struggled a fair bit on the default lore detail settings, experiencing frame rate drops.

There's no 60fps option for video recording.
The phone's rear camera uses the same sensor tech as the original Nord CE, despite claims of improved performance.
The phone doesn't support 5G in all regions or countries (assumed based on 'great to see you've got full 5g support' statement).
