Oppo unveiled the Reno12 collection at a blinding occasion on the picturesque island of Ibiza, and we had the privilege of experiencing the units firsthand.
We have already shared our preliminary ideas on the Reno12 Professional 5G, and now it is time to dive into the Reno12, straight from the sun-kissed shores of the Mediterranean.
The worldwide variant of the Oppo Reno12 is notably completely different from its Chinese language counterpart, that includes a downgraded chipset and digicam system. We’ll conduct an in-depth evaluate to guage its efficiency, however first, let’s speak about its design.
We admire the look, reminiscent of some years in the past, with its curved display screen and minimal bezel. In a market the place makers are more and more shifting again to flat screens, Oppo’s strategy is refreshing.
Our unit, within the Astro Silver shade, seems white below sure lighting and angles. The matte again, nonetheless, is kind of slippery, and we definitely consider it would profit from a case, which isn’t included within the field.
The again panel’s end is interacting with mild in a manner that creates a shifting impact, altering its shade and the visibility of the Oppo brand. The body is extraordinarily polished, nearly mirror-like, reflecting mild in all instructions, always.

The Reno12 sports activities a 6.7” AMOLED show with Full HD+ decision, protected by Gorilla Glass 7i. Whereas Oppo claims the display screen achieves 1,200 nits peak brightness, our transient expertise in shiny daylight was not nice. The display screen is tough to learn outside, hindered additional by its excessive reflectivity.
Efficiency appears promising at first look. The interface is snappy and responsive, however we’ll reserve judgment till we have spent extra time with the cellphone.
The slim retail field was a letdown, as Oppo not features a protecting case or a charging adapter. The bundle solely accommodates a USB-C cable.
The cellphone helps PD 10-55W and SuperVOOC 80W, however you may want a suitable charger to achieve these charging speeds.
