OnePlus Nord 4 12GB RAM Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
8.0/10
Verdict
There's no doubt the Nord 4 is the most refined Nord smartphone ever, and it may even feel slightly more premium than the OnePlus 12R. The new Qualcomm chipset, metal body, and solid battery backup give it an edge. Its camera performance is reliable, though OnePlus may want to add new AI features. The dual-tone finish may raise some eyebrows though.
Pros
- Metal build
- Fast charging
- Clean UI
- Reliable performance
Cons
- Average video recording
- Cameras get limited modes
Design and display
+
As I mentioned, the Nord 4 rocks a metal body, and OnePlus has almost nailed it. Despite its sturdy build, the smartphone boasts a slim design and doesn't feel overwhelmingly heavy. Mind you, this is after adding a much chunkier 5,500mAh battery. It also receives a much-improved IP rating (IP65) for protection against dust and water over OnePlus Nord 3's IP54 rating. There are phones in the segment with an IP68 rating, but this is a step in the right direction.

The biggest similarity among this year's Nord smartphones, and the primary differentiator from the top-end numbered series, lies in the camera. The Nord 4 carries the same camera system as the Nord CE4 (review). While the latter performed adequately in our review, customer expectations in the sub-Rs 35K segment have been sky-high with the introduction of telephoto cameras by Realme. The OnePlus Nord 4's camera specifications are modest at best.

In many ways, the Nord 4 feels more premium than the pricier OnePlus 12R. Its top 256GB variant utilises the faster UFS 4.0 storage type, which we now know isn't available on the OnePlus 12R. The Nord 4 is also eligible for extra years of software updates. There's a lot of noise around AI, which wasn't the case at the launch of the OnePlus 12 series.

The Nord 4 is the fourth OnePlus smartphone of 2024, featuring a much bigger 5,500mAh battery. Despite this chunky addition, OnePlus has managed to cap the weight under 200 grams - a remarkable achievement.
