OnePlus Nord 2The OnePlus Nord 2 does a bang-up job of bridging the gap between the OnePlus 9 and the brand's budget phones, but comes with the same-old trappings of OnePlus' lackluster imaging. It's a good phone backed by well-optimized software (camera aside) but doesn't do much to truly differentiate itself. It’s a good mid-ranger in a world of great budget phones.
