OnePlus is no longer a brand that offers just premium flagship smartphones but also has a lineup of budget smartphones under OnePlus Nord branding. The OnePlus Nord N200 is the latest device in this series, priced at around $240.
With such low pricing, it’s obvious that the company compromised on some aspects of the smartphone. However, it seems that the device is good enough to survive JerryRigEverything’s durability test.
It’s noteworthy that during the bend test, something inside the phone seems to have snapped but what exactly happened has not been revealed by the YouTuber yet and for that, we will have to wait a bit longer. However, after the test, the device seems to be working properly even if something has broken internally.
In the scratch test for the display, the screen starts showing scratches from level 6 while level 7 starts having deeper grooves on the display panel which isn’t bad. This indicates that OnePlus opted for a glass display instead of a plastic panel.
The frame of the OnePlus Nord N200 is made up of plastic which can easily be scratched or cut off using a sharp object. Not just the frame, other components of the smartphone placed on the sides of the phone, including the volume button and a fingerprint scanner are also made using plastic materials.
The phone’s back panel, which appears to be made up of glass with a matte finish, is also made up of plastic, prone to scratches. The display of the smartphone survived the burn test. Although the screen went black for a certain area due to it, it started working again after a few seconds without any issues.
