    at least it’s snapdragon, not mediatek, it’s important efficiency wise, but yeah, cameras are still meh, also charger isn’t in the box, I wonder how many users will buy fake 100W chargers from aliexpress and burn their houses

    anyway, don’t believe their fake AI bullshit, it’s only a buzzword for some algorithms etc

      The Nord 3 did very well with the Dimensity 9000, and it had better camera.
      A Dimensity 9200+ would have been better, that’s competitive to Snapdragon 8 gen 2.
      So unless the Nord 4 is cheaper than Nord 3, I’m not impressed with how they balanced it.

        I bought Nord 3 at launch and I’m not impressed with the battery life and how hot it gets, and I’m not even gaming

        But, this has better power efficiency compared to dimensity 9200+. Using dimensity would’ve meant lower battery life.

          OK, then you may prefer the Dimensity 8200 Ultra, this is still faster then Snapdragon 7+ gen3, and more power efficient than Dimensity 9200+, but uses Mali graphics instead of Immortalis, still good for gaming, but not as good as the 9200+, and it’s cheaper too, which could make room for better camera. ;)

            7+ gen 3 is superior to both. Dimensity 8300 ultra is superior to 8200 ultra and Dimensity 9200+ is superior to dimensity 8300 and lower.

            You were probably thinking about 7+gen 2.

            Rankings for gpu, CPU can be checked on the main site by here: https://www.socpk.com/

            If we are talking about cheap. Dimensity 8300 ultra would’ve been cheaper. But, I guess oneplus wanted the snapdragon name to woo consumers.

              The Dimensity 8200 ultra was slightly faster and more power efficient than Dimensity 9200+ in tests of the Xiaomi 13T against the 13T Pro. (except graphics)
              They are comparable to Snapdragon 8 gen 2, except the 8200 Ultra doesn’t have as strong GPU as the 9200+.
              AFAIK Both are faster than Snapdragon 7+ gen 3.

              The Dimensity 8300 Ultra is another league: https://beebom.com/snapdragon-7-gen-3-vs-dimensity-8300-benchmark/

                You are confused. That article is talking about snapdragon 7 gen 3 on Nord CE 4. I’m talking about Nord 4 which runs on 7+gen3. Which is nearly twice as fast as regular 7 gen 3 which is a midrange Soc.

                  OK, I looked at the link you provided, and the Dimensity 9200+ is rated faster than the Snapdragon 7+ gen 3 with a score of:

                  1. box (Cyan) 199,1 vs 178,9 Mobile phone/tablet chip comprehensive performance ranking
                  2. box (blue) 146,8 vs 146,2 (even) Mobile phone/tablet chip CPU performance ranking
                  3. box (yellow) 321,8 vs 255 Mobile phone/tablet chip GPU performance ranking
                  4. box (red) 120,8 vs 114,5 Mobile phone/tablet chip GPU performance ranking

                  So the Dimensity 9200+ is similar in CPU speed, and the 8200 Ultra is similar in CPU speed to 9200+ (slightly faster), according to tests between Xiaomi 13T (Dimensity 8200 Ultra) and Xiaomi 13T Pro (Dimensity 9200+).

                  PS it’s a very cool page, so I made the effort to translate what the numbers actually were. Thanks for good info. ;)

                  Damned! I was sure it said 7+, I’ve been looking quite a lot for it, and even put the “Snapdrogon 7+ gen 3” in quotes searching for it.

                  Then I have to apologize, that I can’t even find a comparative speedtest!? And I couldn’t read the Chinese one you linked.

      Mediatek makes good processors. It’s not like the old days. The flagship dimensity 9300+ for example is more efficient compared to snapdragon 8 gen 3. Plus, you can’t always be sure with snapdragon releasing heaters like 8 gen 1, 888, or the infamous 810.

      But, yeah 7+gen3 is superior to most everything except flagship hardware.

        Mediatek phones never get custom ROMs since Mediatek refuses to publish the necessary packages although the Android license demands it
