In detailed best alternatives to 5G OnePlus Nord 2?
Some of the key devices that can face the OnePlus Nord 2 5G come from companies like Samsung, Google, and OnePlus. Confused? Don't be, as we'll be listing what sets these alternatives apart, rather than listing the specs.
1. Samsung Galaxy A52 5G (yet to be released in India): Samsung's mid-range 2021 model that has launched in other markets and will soon be launched in India is more than capable of taking on the OnePlus Nord 2 5G.
From offering a better display with 120Hz refresh rate support, a better primary sensor, and better software support, there are a few things the Samsung device does well. You lose overall performance and loading speed, but you gain something and you lose something, so it's a matter of making a decision.
2. Google Pixel 4A: The Google Pixel 4A is Google's cheapest current generation offering and focuses on optics rather than processing power. If you don't play a lot or aren't a heavy user, it might be the best option for you.
With software that can beat OnePlus and optics that outweigh its weight, the Google Pixel 4A is a solid all-rounder. 5G won't be there for you, but if you don't mind too much, go for the Pixel.
3. OnePlus Nord: Although we reported the device was discontinued, if you manage to take it off the shelves during a clearance sale, you won't go wrong with the OG Nord. With 65W pressure drop and the new chipset, there's not much else separating the two devices.
