When it comes to affordable phones, there's a tendency to expect the worst. However, many of the best cheap phones manage to exceed that expectation in several ways that might surprise the more cynical. I've been testing the latest affordable phone from OnePlus, the Nord 5, to see if it's worth your time or better left alone.
When it comes to cheaper phones, I believe that the aim isn't to find something that's just worse to save money. Instead, you should want something that offers a balanced experience, but could have some of the bells and whistles you see on many of the best phones on the market.
