If you should spend $239 on the OnePlus Nord N200 5G depends a lot on who your wireless carrier is. If you’re on T-Mobile, which you probably are if you’re thinking about the N200 because it’s a carrier exclusive and has a good trade-in offer, this is a good, basic device that will let you use the company’s good 5G network for a very low price. The N200 5G will only work with Verizon and AT&T’s 4G networks, so it’s not the best choice if you’re with either of those companies.
The N200 5G is a lot like the N100 in a lot of ways. It is 6.4 inches tall, 2.9 inches wide, and 0.3 inches thick, and it weighs 6.6 ounces. It’s just a little bit thinner, but it’s hard to tell the difference. Even though it’s big, it’s thin and light enough to hold for a long time with one hand.

Where to get OnePlus Nord N200 smartphone?
The 6.49-inch, 1,080×2,400-pixel, 90Hz display is sharper than the one on the N100, but because it has more pixels, it is not quite as bright. There are great vantage points. By default, colours are more on the cool side, but you can change this in the Settings menu.
For a phone in this price range, the screen is great and easy on the eyes, so you can watch videos, scroll through social media feeds, or play games for hours without getting tired.
The graduated blue backplate and chassis are both made of plastic and have a semi-gloss finish that shows fingerprints quickly. The rectangular camera stack in the upper left corner matches the backplate and is slightly bigger and thicker than the one on the N100. In the middle of the backplate, there is a big silver OnePlus logo.
The N200 5G has nothing on its top edge; its headphone jack, USB-C charging port, and speaker grille are all on the bottom. The volume rocker and SIM/microSD slot are on the left side. On the right side of the phone is the Power button, which has a fingerprint reader built into it. The fingerprint reader works quickly and is easy for people with small hands to reach.
The Nord N200 has three cameras, with the main 13MP camera being the most important. This camera comes with a 2MP macro sensor and a 2MP depth sensor, but neither of them worked well in tests. Around the front is a 16MP camera for taking selfies.
