The Dual SIM smartphone allows you to use more than 1 SIM card, with either one dedicated to 5G, depending on your preferences and the 5G network connectivity availability in your area.

It features 6.74 inches, 82.4 cm2 (~67.7% screen-to-body ratio) multi-touch screen, which is large and significant enough for great experiences when using the Nord 3. The Fluid AMOLED, 1B colors, 120Hz, HDR10+, 1450 nits (peak) display oozes class and high performance, especially with 1240 x 2772 pixels, 20:9 ratio (~450 ppi density) high resolution and Dragontrail Glass screen protector. Overall, you are assured of an immersive, cinematic experience when you turn it on and get immersed in browsing, watching, and playing your favorite’s videos online.

High Performance

For a mid-tier smartphone, the OnePlus Nord 3 128GB packs a punch. Running on the latest OS, Android 13, the OxygenOS 13.1 UI provides a basis for optimal user experience and personalization to what best suits your personality, taste and mood. Android 13 comes with the latest Apps, which help improve your productivity using your device. A decent, high-performance Mediatek MT6983 Dimensity 9000 (4 nm) chipset is installed on the Nord 3, enabling smooth operations, easy transitioning between applications and intelligent battery power management.

The chipset is supported by an Octa-core (1×3.05 GHz Cortex-X2 & 3×2.85 GHz Cortex-A710 & 4×1.80 GHz Cortex-A510) processor and Mali-G710 MC10 GPU, both of which are fundamental for multi-tasking on the smartphone and seamless playing of videos without lags and stuttering. Thanks to its powerful chipset and high-performance processing unit, you can comfortably open and work through 15+ apps simultaneously and play high-setting videos without the smartphone overheating or stuttering. Such a high-performance smartphone requires enough memory space to operate optimally. Nord 3 comes installed with 128GB 8GB RAM or 256GB 16GB RAM depending on the model that suits your need and budget. The higher the RAM and internal memory, the better the phone operates, and the more you enjoy the experience of using your smartphone.

Although Nord 3 does not support additional memory (lacks a dedicated or shared MicroSD slot). Optimizing the RAM and ROM is UFS 3.1 Technology on the Nord 3. To meet the needs of 5G devices such as the OnePlus Nord 3, UFS 3.1 offers write speeds up to 3x faster than the previous generation of Universal Flash Storage. At 1,200MB/s, this drive enhances high performance and helps prevent buffering when downloading files so you can enjoy the low-latency connectivity of 5G in an ever-connected world.
