OnePlus Nord 3 5G Tempest Gray 16 GB RAM + 256 GB Storage

1 MONTH REVIEW - GOING GREAT!

Got my first OnePlus Phone - a Nord 3 5G in January 2024 and have been using it for a month now. In a nutshell, I'm more than happy with my phone so far.
Pros:
Super quick charging, decent day-long battery from moderate (no gaming) usage
GREAT screen, intuitive UI, smooth UX. OxygenOS is surprisingly slick for a non-stock OS. Love the premium touches with the lock screen clock, etc.
Multitasking is an absolute breeze, 16GB is more than enough even for the most chaotic people who never close apps
Love the classic notification slider on the side
Fantastic quality premium 1+ case (was free when I bought it but well worth £22) and the pre-applied scratch guard is doing well so far
For what it's worth, the sound quality is great for a phone, nice and crisp
256GB of storage seems good enough for a lot of apps but will need some maintenance to keep the phone going for a few years (which is how long I'm planning to keep this one for)
3 Major updates for several years is a bonus

Cons:
The camera, whilst better than my Poco X5 Pro 5G's 108MP, still doesn't blow my mind as I've always seen the OnePlus as a Camera-centric phone. Perhaps the bar was too high but that said, it's a great camera by itself, just don't expect iPhone-level photos.
The lack of expandable memory is a bit of a bummer but that probably means faster access to media that's on the on-board memory

Can't fault it for the price. Sure there may be other nice options out there but I love this phone also because of how elegant it looks and it's proper light, too.

DEFAULT BATTERY

Dear OnePlus Customer Support Team,

I am writing to raise a critical issue regarding the OnePlus Nord 3 5G device that I recently purchased. Unfortunately, the battery of this phone is defective, resulting in extremely rapid drainage and necessitating charging two to three times daily. This significant flaw severely impacts the functionality and usability of the device.

As a loyal OnePlus customer who has always appreciated the brand's commitment to quality and innovation, I am deeply disappointed and frustrated by this experience. The OnePlus Nord 3 5G was expected to deliver exceptional performance, but the battery's subpar performance falls well short of this expectation.

To underscore the severity of the problem and the urgency of the situation, I urge you to take the following steps:

Insert a SIM card into the OnePlus Nord 3 5G to witness firsthand the alarming rate at which the battery drains during typical usage.
Recognize the inconvenience and disruption caused by this defect on a daily basis.
Given OnePlus's reputation for excellence and customer satisfaction, I request immediate action to address this issue. I respectfully ask for either a replacement of the defective device with a fully functional unit or a comprehensive repair that resolves the battery performance issues permanently.

I trust that OnePlus will uphold its commitment to delivering exceptional products and services. I am eager to have this matter resolved swiftly to restore my confidence in the OnePlus brand.

Please reach out to me at your earliest convenience to discuss the next steps for resolving this urgent matter. Your prompt attention and cooperation in rectifying this issue will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your immediate consideration and assistance.

Great value phone

For the price you pay the quality and in hand feel are really nice. I've used OnePlus devices for a couple of years now and have always lived the design language and quality of product that you receive. Order this device for my mum, who was long overdue a replacement she absolutely loves the design, the cameras and more importantly the fun you get from using a OnePlus device. I'm always impressed by the quality of service and will always be interested in seeing OnePlus develop in the future.

ONE PLUS DO IT AGAIN

The Oneplus Nord 3 5g is a really decent phone. I am upgrading from the Oneplus Nord which was very decent also. The battery life and charging speed is insane, the charge rate increases as quick as a london black cab fare meter. The camera is much better than the Nord and there are many new features. Who needs a flagship phone when you can get something like this. I highly recommend this phone & Oneplus as a company.
