I'm looking at this phone as my Philippines phone. I have a US S24+ on a screaming deal from TMO. I like that they went with the Samsung design language vs copying that ugly iphone camera wart. I currently have a Realme 10 4g that is decent for the price, but I would like to upgrade to a budget 5g phone. I like these phones from the BBK Electronics co such as Oppo, OP, Vivo, Realme ECT. BTW, I fixed my mediocre camera performance for free. I installed the Open Camera app and now my photo/video has improved immensely.
What i need from a smartphone is to last at least 4 years. Im still using pocophone f1. What i miss is NFC. I need very good performance (not really into mobile gaming) but i browse a lot using maps and use it for work. It shoud be pretty durable couse i drop it often and toss it around. A headphone jack is a plus and for sure 2 sim cards. No need for super camera. Amoled is ok but not mandatory. Budget is around 300$.
Yep, its a fine device but caution should be taken. This is an allrounder approach. Last years flaghships would still shine in cameras or performance. Defintely something to think about. Awesome job as always.
yeah true! It really depends on what you are looking for, I think software is good, and better then many around this price (new price of course) But in turn looking back at older ones also makes sense....
I can get this OnePlus phone new for $300 (Canadian). A preowned Galaxy S22+ is $500 from the same vendor. Not _last years_ flagship, two years old. The S22+ has better cameras and CPU/GPU but a smaller screen, no SD card slot, no 3.5mm headphone jack. For my needs the extra $200 isn't worth the CPU/GPU upgrades.
I am not a photographer, i only take photos occasionally. The display is very good for an lcd and I am using this device for my online taxi service so i need an lcd for long time on screen time. (No fear of amoled burn in or greenlines😅) the chip is also adequate for daily basic use and the ram/rom is good for its price. (i dont play games) For an average user, this device is more than enough. Just don't look for the top grade smartphones features for this price point. Look for the phone for your needs and you will be surprised that most smartphones for this price are more than enough for you😊
I'm choosing between this one and Xperia 10 V and see that there's samish specs and OnePlus is cheaper. I mean I need more or less basic mid range or budget phone for daily use like listening to music messages/social apps and banking that's all. One thing I like about Xperia it's smaller (I hate big phones) but again difference in prices in my country is around 100 bucks and I can probably live with that my phone will be bigger,
I only go for Snapdragon powered phones. Really considering getting me one of these to replace my aging Sony XA2 (which I've dropped multiple times, the screen is all kinds of messed up).
So for me, I really just wanted to use it for basic internet browsing like youtube,reddit and stuff. But my most important thing for me is the ui. After using mainly xiaomi phones for the past 5 years I think I had enough with the UI. It just so unintuitive and I hate the design. But for people that want the best price to performance ratio I confidently say xiaomi is the best at it (in Malaysia at least). I've play mobile game in the past but now I never played any mobile game after having a pc. So that's why I'm interested in oneplus nord 3 ce, my friend said the ui is nice and the continuous major software updates for a year is good to hear. So is it worth it for the ui cause it is $30 more than say poco x5 in my country (poco x5 have better screen but the ui, man I hate miui and I still using it rn) Battery is essential cause I prefer to use it all day without charging. A good camera would be nice but it is not my priority. I would like to hear your opinion
I want to this phones screen on time. I'm literally so muchh worried because at first this phone given me 8 hours screen on time but after the update it is giving me 4 hours screen on time. Please help 🙏
HI Jermaine, Im looking for a mid range phone in the £250. Other than being a phone and browsing social media I want one with a good camera, so what would you recommend. Ive also looked at the Xiaomi Redmi note 13 pro, but would be very interested to hear your opinion. 👍
mmmm so I think honestly if you can find a redmi note 13 pro for that price it would be a solid deal, I think their phones are nice for it. You can potentioly also see if you can get a second hand Oneplus 10 Pro for that price which will be a bit better, even more so with the camera's.
Yes. Can highly recommend this phone. Bought it around 3 weeks ago for 170€ and it has worked like a charm. Great cameras, super fast charging, (67w), 120hz lcd 2k screen, 8gb ram + 8gb expandable ram. Feels really smooth to use overall. Good processor also and support for 5g
I'm thinking of getting the Galaxy A54. It's on offer at about £270. I think I might like the fast charging on the CE here over the A54 but I'm not sure if that is a deal breaker.
@bluenomad The "slow" charging on my A54 isn't that much of a big deal for me personally, but I’ve never had fast charging. The only thing I mind about the A54 is how little improvements it has over the A34 in speed and perhaps the price in comparison, although I got quite a good deal.
Personally, i feel afraid to get Nothing Phone 1 or Pixel 7 if we talk about CPU - lmao 778 is a decent one and G2 even better but still i m afraid. Il better get S23 + or just wait for new things like Nothing phone 2 with SD gen 1+ or in 2 years from now SD gen 2
AI summary of the review based on the transcript: Here's a summary of the key points from the video review of the OnePlus Nord CE3 Lite: 1. The phone offers decent features for its price but faces challenges in a competitive market. 2. It uses the Snapdragon 695 CPU, which is reliable but outdated (announced in October 2021). 3. Performance is adequate for daily tasks without noticeable lag or overheating. 4. OnePlus promises two major Android updates and three years of security updates. 5. The phone includes a 3.5mm headphone jack, which the reviewer appreciates. 6. Audio quality from speakers is average, as expected for a budget phone. 7. The main camera is 108MP with a wide aperture, but video recording is limited to 1080p at 30fps. 8. Camera performance: - Tends to produce overly bright images - Captures decent detail - Fast and reliable in most situations - Needs improvement in contrast and processing 9. The reviewer suggests adjusting brightness when taking photos for better results. 10. Battery life is described as "quite good." 11. The display quality is not the best in its price range. 12. Recommendation depends on individual needs and budget: - Good for basic features, fast charging, and software experience - May not be the best choice for those prioritizing display or camera quality - Consider older flagship phones as alternatives, but factor in software update support Overall, the OnePlus Nord CE3 Lite is described as a "fine device," but the reviewer suggests there might be better options available depending on specific user needs and preferences.
I recently bought this phone to replace my Galaxy S20 Ultra because It got the so called white screen of death. I hesitate to upgrade to S21 and up because some of my friends are having screen issues to their Samsung Galaxy phones.
So what was the shocking part? I bought this phone several months ago, got a great deal, and I absolutely love it, would highly recommend.
glad you like it! :)
I'm having a problem with Bluetooth. It sounds really bad in my earphones. Other cell phones in the house don't have this problem.
@@nikmor5773That must be your headphones' problem

What are the better options ?

I could look at older phones but they usually will run out of security updates in a year.

Verrryyy much agreed!!! A lot comes down to needs
Had one for over a year and a great all rounder for the price with fast charging and great battery endurance as bonuses.
what are the smartphones you believe is much more superior but on the same price point as this?

Well that’s a very Limey Green phone! Seems like an ok budget phone to me. There are so many of them now. 3.5mm though…that’s a plus point 😄
Hahahaha yeah Limey will be jealous hahaha, and yeah OK is probably the best way to describe it for me as well, and love a 3.5!
@@ThroughJermainesLens i neeeeed !!!!
ultra wide is better than macro lens.
I just wonder what phone have built in speakers that blows you away?
I want to this phones screen on time. I'm literally so muchh worried because at first this phone given me 8 hours screen on time but after the update it is giving me 4 hours screen on time. Please help 🙏
That is weird! Did it change the hz? And maybe of need be reset the device and see what it does then.

@@RobboinSpain and a oneplus 10 pro second hand?
This and samsung s21 which would be better to buy currently
Does it heat up while gaming?
Would you consider this a good option to upgrade from a Huawei Mate 20 lite after 4 years ?
Yes.
Can highly recommend this phone. Bought it around 3 weeks ago for 170€ and it has worked like a charm.
Great cameras, super fast charging, (67w), 120hz lcd 2k screen, 8gb ram + 8gb expandable ram.

I need for social media and messaging apps
Do you suggest the this one or the oneplus nord 3 ?
Hello sir this mobile is refresh rate 60 and 120 but i check settings 60and 90 only how can explain me
1080p30 video recording is absolutely ridiculous. This is the same spec that my current phone from 2017 has !!

@bluenomad Yeah, I got my A54 for £270 so it's not so bad.
Not my type of phone but I enjoy the review style you show, specifically the camera part. Cheers
very fair! And thank you man ^^

Honestly not easy, it all depends on your needs, that will dictate a lot on what phone works best for you.
You don't know how to use Nitro boost in Asphalt 8, do you?
NOT BUYING ONEPLUS ANYMORE AFTER MY 9R GET GREEN line AFTER AN UPDATE
That's amoled
I had the oneplus 7 pro now the oneplus nord ce 3 lite im proud of it 🙏
How do you find the camera of the Ce 3 Lite vs the camera of the 7 PRO?
@@boavidafilipedias the camera is much better than 7 Pro because the Phone iş 4 -5 years old
I'm on one plus 7pro now and seriously debating on getting the ce3 lite as my battery / charging is bad. thanks for this!
WHich one is better? A54 or Nord CE3 lite?
OnePlus Nord CE3 Lite, no lag better than Samsung 😊

I do have to say it's getting harder to think what phone I would go next I dislike Samsung new ways and lots of others
yeah that will be a very hard one for you with the current market, you might want to think about moving tosony honestly.
I recently bought this phone to replace my Galaxy S20 Ultra because It got the so called white screen of death. I hesitate to upgrade to S21 and up because some of my friends are having screen issues to their Samsung Galaxy phones.
Don’t forget most phone companies are taking away features like the headphone jack and SD card slot. 2 features I think are actually important.
It sure shows some nice details on the picture's and the name I am sorry I dislike to much for my taste great work tho
nice colour
Right!!!!
