OnePlus Nord CE6 hands-on review

07 May 2026



Lazy-Prodigy, 09 May 2026What other phones are better than this in same price range?... moreAny phone is better than this, for example Oppo K13 Turbo is far faster with Dimensity 8450, 4K60, has more cameras, 12GB choice if you want, and still a strong 7000 mah battery, for far lesser cash.

I'll say- CE6 is a fraud.

Different brands hav... moreYes, Apex or Ultra or Ultimate do not change the fact that a Dimensity 8300 is a Dimensity 8300. It's just pure marketing by smartphone manufacturers. Whereas the Dimensity 8350 is a separate SoC announced by MediaTek itself. That's what I'm getting at. Yes, it's not very different from the Dimensity 8300, but it's not 100% identical (I would say more like 95%).

                  Anonymous, 09 May 2026It literally tells you what benchmarks each score is for. N... moreIts like you didnt even read my reply. Different brands have different names for their 8300 rebrand. They all have different performance schedulers too. Nothing to do with game engine or apex or ultra.

                    Lazy-Prodigy, 09 May 2026What other phones are better than this in same price range?... moreThe regular Poco X8 Pro immediately comes to mind, though if the cameras are the main priority, you can find some good deals on an Honor 400.

                              Superpower2030, 08 May 2026Just say 8300 lol, dont market for dimensity.The Dimensity 8350 has a different gaming engine to the Dimensity 8300, using the StarSpeed engine instead of the HyperEngine, and in certain benchmarks, does perform better. Also, Dimensity is not the brand name. It's MediaTek.

                                  Don't get me wrong.
                                  Compare this phone to anything, predecessor or current offerings: CE6 is rubbish.

                                    Guys, after reading this review, I want a Nord CE5 (not a mis-type) for the future.

                                    Can anyone guide me to get one in India?
                                    Like a conspiracy of a kind, all CE5 colours and units disappeared at once in India! Not slowly, but in an instant. How can this be?

                                        What a downgrade! Eliminating MicroSD card slot and an inferior chip, compared to a more powerful Dimensity 8350 Apex from Nord CE5.
