The new OnePlus Nord N10 5G offers an affordable, accessible entry point to 5G with a powerful Snapdragon 690 processor and a beautiful 90hz display. Launching for \u00a3329 in the U.K. (with a U.S. price coming soon), the N10 5G is a certified winner with a couple of glaring flaws.<\/p>\n<div class=\"review-card-body-inline\">\n<div class=\"text\">\n<div class=\"pros\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Heres_What_We_Like\"><\/span>Here&#8217;s What We Like<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Great price for a 5G handset<\/li>\n<li>Fantastic FHD+ 90hz display<\/li>\n<li>30-watt Warp Charging<\/li>\n<li>Loud stereo speakers and headphone jack<\/li>\n<li>Premium look and feel, but still lightweight<\/li>\n<li>Comes with 30-watt &#8220;Warp&#8221; charger<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"cons\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"And_What_We_Dont\"><\/span>And What We Don&#8217;t<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>It has 5 cameras, but none of them are amazing<\/li>\n<li>No wireless charging<\/li>\n<li>No official IPX water-resistance rating<\/li>\n<li>There are better-priced alternatives if you don&#8217;t need 5G<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Like other OnePlus phones, the N10 5G knocks performance and design out of the park. I\u2019m excited to tell you about its beautiful display, great build quality, and kickass specs. But I\u2019m not excited to talk about its cameras, which aren\u2019t as reliable as you and I might like. Also, while you\u2019re here I want to clarify that this is a 5G phone. Unless you live in a metropolitan area, you probably won\u2019t benefit from 5G for another year or two. Just something to keep in mind!<\/p>\n<p>The OnePlus Nord N10 5G releases in the U.K. before the end of November, with a U.S. release coming later this year. OnePlus sent me a European model of the phone for this review, which means that I can\u2019t test 5G. Besides that, my experience is the same as anyone using a North American model of the N10 5G.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s stop mucking around (as the Brits say) and start looking at some specs!<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Processor:<\/strong> Qualcomm Snapdragon 690<\/li>\n<li><strong>RAM:<\/strong> 6 GB LPDDR4x<\/li>\n<li><strong>Storage:<\/strong> 128 GB UFS2.1 (Faster than eMMC) + expandable to 512 GB<\/li>\n<li><strong>Display:<\/strong> 6.49-inch 1080\u00d72400 (405 PPI) LCD w\/ 90hz refresh rate and a hole-punch front camera<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cameras:<\/strong> 64-megapixel main camera, 8-megapixel wide ca, 2-megapixel macro lens, 2-megapixel monochrome (black and white) lens, and a 16-megapixel front camera<\/li>\n<li><strong>Battery:<\/strong> 4,300mAh<\/li>\n<li><strong>Charging:<\/strong> 30-watt Warp Charging with the included Warp Charger<\/li>\n<li><strong>Headphone Jack:<\/strong> Yes<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fingerprint Sensor:<\/strong> Rear-mounted<\/li>\n<li><strong>Connectivity:<\/strong> U.S. connectivity details TBA<\/li>\n<li><strong>IP Rating:<\/strong> Nope<\/li>\n<li><strong>Colors:<\/strong> Midnight Ice<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dimensions:<\/strong> 163mm x 74.4mm x 8.95mm; 190g<\/li>\n<li><strong>Price:<\/strong> \u00a3329 (U.S. price TBA)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>By the way, tech nerds and folks in Europe might recognize the OnePlus Nord N10 5G as a sequel to the popular Europe-exclusive OnePlus Nord. But I\u2019m not going to compare the phones to each other because OnePlus never sold the original Nord in the U.S., and to be honest, the N10 5G doesn\u2019t have much in common with its forebear.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"It_Looks_Good_It_Feels_Good_It_Works_Good\"><\/span>It Looks Good, It Feels Good, It Works Good<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_60121\" style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-60121 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/9d39035d0a8490b05f73f04073570f91\/p\/uploads\/2020\/11\/9eb9cd58-1.png\" alt=\"The Nord N10 5G's beautiful 90hz display.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-credittext=\"Andrew Heinzman\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Andrew Heinzman<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>As with all OnePlus handsets, the Nord N10 5G is dripping with premium design choices. It looks and feels like a flagship phone, with a beautiful (and massive) 6.49-inch FHD+ display, a glossy glass back, and a massive Samsung-like camera bump. OnePlus also chose a \u201cMidnight Ice\u201d color for this phone, which looks very pretty when you\u2019re outdoors or in a well-lit room.<\/p>\n<p>Build quality is stellar, with components that look great and feel solid. There\u2019s a headphone jack, a set of kickass stereo speakers, and a comfortable rear-mounted fingerprint reader that reminds me of the Pixel 4a. Critics may complain that the N10 5G has a plastic frame, but I don\u2019t care because it makes the phone super lightweight and comfortable despite its outrageous size.<\/p>\n<p>Critics may also complain that the N10 5G has an LCD display. To be honest, it took me a full week of using the phone to realize that it doesn\u2019t have an OLED panel, a fact I discovered while writing out the specs for this review. Contrast and color on the N10 5G look incredible, and with its super-smooth 90hz refresh rate, it feels more futuristic (and makes a better fidget toy) than your standard 60hz OLED panel.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, a 90hz refresh rate is useless without performance, and the Nord N10 5G runs like a dream. The Snapdragon 690 processor, UFS2.1 storage, and 6GB of RAM make this thing fly, even when you\u2019re multitasking or playing <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>s.<\/p>\n<p>If you asked me to guess the price of this phone based on its performance, build, and display, I\u2019d shoot for around $700. I mean, these specs are incredible for the price. Unfortunately, specs can be a bit misleading, and I\u2019m going to spend the rest of this review clarifying how the N10 5G\u2019s shockingly big battery, massive camera sensors, and speedy 30-watt warp charging are actually pretty average for its \u00a3329 price tag. The direct price conversion there is about $432 USD, but again, U.S. price is TBA\u2014as soon as we know, you\u2019ll know.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_Big_Battery_and_30-Watt_Charging\"><\/span>A Big Battery and 30-Watt Charging<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_60117\" style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-60117 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/62e566c5c8e3eb305c74dc2132eae89c\/p\/uploads\/2020\/11\/10fb15c7-1.png\" alt=\"A close-up of the camera hump on the OnePlus Nord N10 5G.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-credittext=\"Andrew Heinzman\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Andrew Heinzman<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>One of the N10 5G\u2019s flashiest specs is its massive 4,300mAh battery. Coupled with 30-watt \u201cWarp Charging,\u201d you\u2019d think that this phone would rarely need a charge. But the N10 5G actually uses quite a bit of power thanks to its 90hz display, juiced-up processor, and 5G antenna. In the end, you have a phone that reaches 25 to 30% by bedtime\u2014great, but not life-changing.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s where the value of 30-watt charging comes into question. The whole point in this fancy \u201cWarp\u201d charger (which comes with the phone) is that you can spend less time sitting near an outlet and more time mindlessly scrolling through <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a> or Twitter. But if you only charge your phone while you\u2019re in bed, then the extra speed doesn\u2019t matter. I think a lot of people would trade this 30-watt fast charging for wireless charging, a feature that\u2019s missing from the N10 5G.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m not saying that the N10 5G loses points for its big battery and 30-watt charging, I\u2019m just wondering whether these features are as life-changing as some people claim them to be. That said, you could probably push the N10 5G\u2019s battery to last for two full days if you set it to 60hz and play around with Power Saving Mode.<\/p>\n<p>I should also reiterate that OnePlus sent me the European version of the N10 5G, so I can\u2019t really test 5G\u2019s effect on its battery life. The impact should be negligible if you don\u2019t use much mobile data, although you might find yourself charging the N10 5G during dinner if you watch Netflix, play games, or <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">download apps<\/a> while you\u2019re at work or school.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Photographers_Beware_Youre_in_for_a_Scare\"><\/span>Photographers Beware, You\u2019re in for a Scare!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_60119\" style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-60119 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/c196a1cd84d7f41703849fc32ffd2131\/p\/uploads\/2020\/11\/8266e4bf-1.png\" alt=\"The back of the OnePlus Nord N10 5G.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-credittext=\"Andrew Heinzman\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Andrew Heinzman<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Camera performance on the N10 5G is underwhelming.

The first photo was shot indoors with the main camera in portrait mode. It\u2019s a good example of what you can get from the N10 5G when the stars are aligned. The second photo is from the main camera outdoors and serves as a great comparison for the third photo, which is a very blown-out looking ultrawide. The final shot is a macro. I don\u2019t like it, but it\u2019s the only macro shot that I could get in focus.<\/p>\n<p>I think that OnePlus could greatly improve on the N10 5G by replacing its family-sized quad-camera array with a single wide-angle lens. The reason why I hold this opinion is because, honestly, this phone\u2019s 64-megapixel wide camera is the only one worth using. Photos from the 8-megapixel ultrawide lens look blown out and over-sharpened, and the 2-megapixel macro lens is shockingly bad. As for the 2-megapixel monochrome (black and white) camera \u2026 what\u2019s the point?<\/p>\n<p>While I wish that OnePlus would focus on building a great, reliable main camera instead of blowing money on extra lenses, I have to admit that the 16-megapixel selfie camera is pretty accurate and consistent. The N10 5G also supports some impressive video specs, handling 4K video at 30 FPS with options for Super Slow-Mo and Time Lapse at 1080p.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Gist_A_Good_Overall_Phone_but_Consider_the_Alternatives\"><\/span>The Gist: A Good Overall Phone, but Consider the Alternatives<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_60118\" style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-60118 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/0188bb99c5ee123cbdb10bf6c25ea3fa\/p\/uploads\/2020\/11\/09dd8c26-1.png\" alt=\"A photo of the OnePlus Nord N10 5G and some firewood.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-credittext=\"Andrew Heinzman\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Andrew Heinzman<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>OnePlus and its sister brands (Oppo, Vivo, etc) tend to focus on big numbers. When you look at the spec sheet, the Nord N10 5G offers faster charging, more cameras, a bigger screen, and a higher refresh rate than any similarly-priced 5G handset.<\/p>\n<p>But you can\u2019t judge a phone by its spec sheet. In the real world, the Nord N10 5G\u2019s performance, usability, and battery life are comparable to many other (often cheaper) devices like the Pixel 4a or the two-year-old Galaxy S9\u2014which I used to shoot the photos for this review. The main draw for the N10 5G is really its gigantic 90hz display, its glass black, its 5G capabilities, and its expensive-looking exterior. If you don\u2019t actually care about that stuff, then you should look around and consider some cheaper 4G alternatives.<\/p>\n<div class=\"single-review-card border\">\n<div class=\"review-card-heading\">\nRating: <span>7\/10<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Price: <span>\u00a3329<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"review-card-body\">\n<div class=\"text\">\n<div class=\"pros\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Heres_What_We_Like-2\"><\/span>Here\u2019s What We Like<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Great price for a 5G handset<\/li>\n<li>Fantastic FHD+ 90hz display<\/li>\n<li>30-watt Warp Charging<\/li>\n<li>Loud stereo speakers and headphone jack<\/li>\n<li>Premium look and feel, but still lightweight<\/li>\n<li>Comes with 30-watt &#8220;Warp&#8221; charger<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"cons\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"And_What_We_Dont-2\"><\/span>And What We Don&#8217;t<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>It has 5 cameras, but none of them are amazing<\/li>\n<li>No wireless charging<\/li>\n<li>No official IPX water-resistance rating<\/li>\n<li>There are better-priced alternatives if you don&#8217;t need 5G<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>setTimeout(function(){!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,document,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');fbq('init','1137093656460433');fbq('track','PageView');},3000);<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">For forums sites go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/forum.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forum.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a><\/span><\/strong>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you want to read more like this article, you can visit our <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.buradabiliyorum.com\/technology\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Technology category.<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/59834\/oneplus-nord-n10-5g-review-an-accessible-powerful-5g-phone\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;#An Accessible, Powerful 5G Phone \u2013 Review Geek&#8221; Rating: 7\/10 ? 1 &#8211; Absolute Hot Garbage 2 &#8211; Sorta Lukewarm Garbage 3 &#8211; Strongly Flawed Design 4 &#8211; Some Pros, Lots Of Cons 5 &#8211; Acceptably Imperfect 6 &#8211; Good Enough to Buy On Sale 7 &#8211; Great, But Not Best-In-Class 8 &#8211; Fantastic, with&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":108155,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2020\/11\/f19c9085-1.png","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-108154","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/108154","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=108154"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/108154\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/108155"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=108154"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=108154"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=108154"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
