Good

I am a bottom feeder. I like to get a lot for a little $. When I saw the price and what this phone does and what is packed in this phone, there was some doubt that it was that good. Sometimes ‘cheap’ phones are actually cheap but also lack function and are disappointing. This ONEPLUS N200 5G – actually delivers.

The N200 looks good. The screen is bright and responds fast. The fingerprint reader is positioned a little higher than I like but not enough to make it not pleasing to use. If you do not like to use fingerprint then use the face recognition. The N200 is very fast. The size of the phone is large but it is slightly a little narrow. This makes for fitting in a hand comfortable. The back is plastic but then a phone case will protect it.

It is Android with what ONEPLUS calls ‘Oxygen’. This means a few ‘bells and whistles’ make the phone fun to use. If you used Samsung or Motorola there is a very little learning curve.

I purchased this phone based upon Amazon’s return policy. If i did not like the phone then I would return it and get something I do like. This phone is a keeper. I like it. I like it a lot!

I read many reviews about this phone and almost everything about this phone was favorable except the camera. I was very skeptical about the picture quality. After using the camera and being critical I decided it is not that bad. I compared the photos to the new Apple iPhone SE 5G (2022). Yes the iPhone had better quality photos but not by much. The iPhone costs twice the price of the N200. The photos in the N200 are better than Motorola G7 Plus phone. The N200 phone is acceptable for photos in my opinion.

One thing you cannot beat is the price of this phone.

Update One Year Later ….
This phone was satisfactory to use as my initial review mentions. However, the little idiosyncratic gremlins begins to grow as time goes on. I am not sure if it is because Android was updated or this is part of the phone. Security tells me that my phone is secure. I ruled that out.
The phone becomes annoying as I use it more. For instance, I want to take a picture, Get the phone in my hand, press the power button. This is a fingerprint reader that looses its ability to read fingerprints but is still set. Wait 1-2 seconds. Now wait for the ‘Brightness Compensation’ to adjust. That is another 1-2 seconds. Now press the camera button. Another 1-2 seconds to open. Aim and shoot. There is even a lag when the shutter is pressed and the shot is taken.
This phone is slow. I knew that but I did not expect it to slow more.
I cleaned out the memory and hoped that would help. Nope!
Folks, the phone has some really nice features for the price but remember, you will pay for that in this phone by way of its performance.
However, as I said, I am a bottom feeder and like to get the most for the least. It has been a year so I will begin another search for a new phone.

This phone is better than Apple in every way. The camera is better the speed is better and everything people who review this phone does NOT know what they are talking about. With my iPhone 11 pro Max I would get so many typos it was ridiculous but with this phone not so many typos only time I would get typos if I accidently pushed the wrong button cause my hands are too big. The camera is beautiful it’s not slow at all I don’t know what these other so called reviewers are talking about but from now on I’m gonna be in the one plus family for a long time. I only had this phone for a couple of days and it’s doing well so far which I like other people on here expect more from a budget phone like why would you put high end stuff that you can only find with a thousand dollar phone and put it in a budget phone it’s called a budget phone for a reason idiots. The battery holds up great for me and with all the reviews saying you can’t add it to Sprint or Verizon network then don’t cry and complain about it put it on another network and if you can’t just buy another phone it’s not that hard. When I get my paycheck again I’m gonna be buying the OnePlus 9 and I’ll be back to reviewing another great phone HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! (Edit)
This phone is trash now they’re aren’t new updates it’s stuck on Android 11 and will not update it’s slow and just good never get a cheap phone from a major company there will always be flaws.

Didn’t even think to check before buying, best price for the offering bar any other phone online. I did the research for options and offerings, bought before checking though, oops!
Relieved when updated OS, everything worked. [be sure to update OS!]
