I own the 12 GB / 256 GB Model since it released in 2021 and it never let me down in any situation. Performance, Wifi strenght, battery runtime, charging speed - all good

What is mid about it:

Maybe the display could be brighter during summer days but in general it is good.
90 Hertz - people claiming 120 is better... i dont know, not necessary.
For scrolling it is smooth and it saves battery to stay at "only 90".
Youtube is locked at 60 Hertz anyways...
Speaker is okay, clear and loud but doesn't create any sort of sound stage like high end phones might.

What it lacks is eSIM support and SD-card support, maybe a headphone jack but you can add those via USB-C Dongle nowadays for like 5 bucks...

Only negative: the wideangle cameras are useless, it just doesn't create good images in any situation

              A True Flagship Killer – Still Going Strong After 3 Years!

              I've been using the OnePlus Nord 2 for almost three years, and I can confidently say it's one of the best smartphones I've ever owned. From day one, it has provided a smooth, fast, and reliable experience without a single crash or performance issue.

              Performance & Speed

              Even after years of daily use, the MediaTek Dimensity 1200 AI chipset is still handling everything effortlessly. Whether it's multitasking, gaming, or productivity, the phone remains buttery smooth with zero lag. OxygenOS optimization is truly remarkable, making the experience feel premium and seamless.

              Battery & Charging

              The 4500mAh battery is still performing well, and thanks to Warp Charge 65W, I can go from nearly empty to full in about 30 minutes. No battery anxiety at all!

              Camera & Display

              The 50MP Sony IMX766 sensor continues to capture crisp, vibrant photos, and the OIS ensures clear, steady shots. The AMOLED display is bright and punchy, making content consumption a pleasure.

              Durability & Longevity

              I’ve never had any crashes, overheating issues, or slowdowns—not even once! The build quality is fantastic, and the software updates have kept it relevant even in 2025.

              Final Verdict

              If you're looking for a phone that stands the test of time, the OnePlus Nord 2 is a true gem. Fast, smooth, and reliable even after 3 years—this is how every phone should be!

              Would I buy OnePlus again? Without a doubt!

                            I'vw been using the phone for 2 years. The battery life decreased with every android update. After 2 years of use sot dropt to 3.30 - 4.30. I changed the battery with a nohon one and improved but not too much. The phone had some issues with notifications, with the fingerprint scanner and the worst of all with the detachment of the screen, same issue thet i've had with the nord 1.
