Can anybody share experience with OnePlus/Murena Nord?

Hello Johann

I’m still on an unofficial 0.14 build, as I didn’t have time to change to the official build yet.
I have the device since around a half year so I can share some insights.

I get around 2-2.5 days of battery use, but I often use mobile data while commuting. With light use, you could get 3 days out of it I think.

I switched to gcam as the camera app. There are two config files online, fury and wychaya (or similar). They enable all cameras and tweak the settings to match the cam.
The photos are okay - 3rd party apps can’t make full use of the sensor but are limited to 12 MP if I remember correctly. So this takes away some of the crisp.
Especially if you try to photograph moving things, there’s a short delay after pressing the shutter button, which can be a bit annoying. If the light conditions aren’t good, the moving objects will also blurr. This was the same with stock firmware. Non-moving objects are fine. OnePlus Software was always lacking in this context.
For me it’s ok, just the blurring can be annoying when taking family fotos.

I’ll try to take some challenging pics later.

The camera is a bit lacking (which by modern standards is still good). Still a great phone. Especially for the price.

This is a picture in the evening I took after flashing my tablet. It’s beneath some LED lights.

That’s two pictures taken at deep night, with gcam nightmode
