Pros and Cons

Pros of the OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite

  • Premium AMOLED Display: It features a vibrant 6.67-inch Full HD+ AMOLED screen with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate and very high peak brightness (up to 2100 nits), which is a fantastic display for its class.

  • Massive Battery and Fast Charging: It packs a substantial 5,500 mAh battery for long endurance, combined with very fast 80W wired SUPERVOOC charging (0-100% in about 50 minutes).

  • Main Camera with OIS: The 50MP main camera (Sony LYT-600) includes Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), a feature often missing in this price range, resulting in clearer photos and more stable videos.

  • Retained 3.5mm Headphone Jack: It includes the 3.5mm audio jack, providing convenience and flexibility for users who prefer wired headphones.

  • Expandable Storage: It offers a Hybrid SIM slot that allows users to expand the storage by up to 2TB using a MicroSD card.

Cons of the OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite

  • Outdated Processor: It uses the Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 5G chipset, which is an older, lower-powered processor compared to newer chips found in competitors, resulting in slower general and gaming performance.

  • No Ultra-Wide Camera: The rear camera setup is limited to the 50MP main lens and a basic 2MP depth sensor, meaning it lacks the versatile ultra-wide lens that is standard on most competing devices.

  • Video Recording Limited to 1080p: Due to the older processor's limitations, the phone cannot record 4K video and is capped at 1080p @ 30fps for both front and rear cameras.

  • Slower USB 2.0 Port: It comes equipped with the older and slower USB Type-C 2.0 port for wired data transfer, which is a letdown given the phone's high charging speed.

  • Basic Water Resistance: It only carries an IP54 rating for dust and splash resistance, offering less protection against water damage compared to the IP67/IP68 ratings on some rivals.
