The hidden pitfalls of owning one of the 'best budget Android phones' from a couple of years ago...
can be tempting if you are on a budget. Often, new devices undercut the competition and offer powerful processors at a surprisingly cheap price.is one of the companies that has made a name for itself for selling great budget phones. It was part of a clever marketing plan, to get users hooked on budget devices and then slowly raise prices, until one day you end up at pretty much a flagship-level cost for the device.
Once again, this is not just any phone. It's the phone that started the Nord series that OnePlus expects will sell over 25 million units by 2023!I paid a visit to OnePlus forums to see whether I am not missing something and whether it's just my device that is not receiving the update. Lo and behold, there is a
“Insatiable hunger for updates coupled with the expectation of getting pixel like treatment for half the price,”This type of comments not only have zero contribution to the issue at hand, but put the blame on users for expecting an update that they were promised in a reasonable timeline. Of course, the comment also fails to mention that the OnePlus Nord starting price of around $400 is actually not much cheaper than the Google Pixel 4a/5a series.
I personally have two friends that have bought the OnePlus Nord thanks to my recommendations and it's frustrating to see their devices left waiting for an update for months on end.Let's make one thing clear, though: not all budget Android phones are treated this way.
