OnePlus has finally launched its Nord 4 in India, but there's a twist. After the OnePlus 5T, the brand is going back to its metal roots with the Nord 4. The design is also very different from its Chinese counterpart. However, the phone's specifications and pricing put it directly against the Realme GT 6T in the segment. So if you're after a powerful mid-ranger, should you get the GT 6T or settle for the latest Nord? I spent almost a week with the two, and here is my detailed comparison of the OnePlus Nord 4 and the Realme GT 6T.

When it comes to the contents of the box, both the Nord 4 and GT 6T keep you tightly sorted on that front. In addition to the devices themselves, you get the following things in the box for the two phones:

Speaking of the phones, I'm carrying the Nord 4's Obsidian Midnight and the GT 6T's Fluid Silver color variants. Now, I was a little disappointed to see the Nord 4 come with a transparent case in the box. I wish it had a color matching case instead, like other OnePlus phones.

I've always had a soft spot for phones that are all metal. So the Nord 4's clever mix of glass and metal really and immediately stands out in comparison to the GT 6T. The metal frame extends into the back panel in a more durable unibody fashion. At the same time, the individual camera sensors are placed on a super-reflective glass that acts as a mini-mirror.
