OPPO Reno5, Reno5 Pro and Reno 5 Pro +: Official Features

After many rumors and leaks, the OPPO Reno5 series have been officially presented in China, letting us know the characteristics of the worthy successors of the OPPO Reno4 and OPPO Reno4 Pro. This time there are three models that we find, with important differences between them. , especially in the processor.

The Chinese firm has not wanted to wait until 2021 and is ahead of the competition to present the models that should soon arrive in Spain. All these models, like the predecessors, arrive with the 5G surname included and maintaining a design that follows the line marked in the previous models, proving to be premium mobiles inside and out.

OPPO Reno5, the basis of the new generation

We start with the most basic, but not least capable, in turn the most economical of them all. In this case, the design lets us see a camera module that is located in the upper left part, with a quadruple lens and in the front the hole in the screen is not missing. In this case, the flat screen is one of the differentiating points that we find with the rest of the family, including a 6.43-inch Amoled screen and Full HD + resolution. The refresh rate is 90 Hz and the touch response is 180 Hz.

In terms of power, it is headed by the Snapdragon 765G processor, which reaches up to 2.4 GHz. The memory options in this case can be 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of memory or 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB, with 4X LPDDR RAM and UFS 2.1 Storage technologies, without the option to expand it via MicroSD. The fingerprint is under the screen and there is no lack of detail when we are in connectivity with 5G networks, NFC or Bluetooth 5.0.

The cameras stand out for their 64 Mpx main lens with ƒ / 1.8 aperture that is accompanied by a wide angle with 8 Mpx, as well as a 2 Mpx macro lens and an extra lens that improves the results related to depth. The selfie camera is 32 Mpx, remaining identical at this point to that of the previous generation.

As for the growth of the battery, it is remarkable, reaching 4300 mAh along with the powerful 65W fast charge of OPPO’s own , which will allow us to charge it in less than 1 hour.

OPPO Reno5 Pro, more screen and MediaTek processor

In this case we find a significant leap in design and performance, finding that OPPO‘s Reno5 Pro opts this time for an Amoled panel with a 6.55-inch curved screen. All the other goodies such as the 90 Hz refresh rate, 180 Hz touch response rate and the high pixel density remains.

The most anticipated would undoubtedly be the improvement of the processor, to go on to give a chance to the powerful and outstanding Mediatek Dimensity 1000+ that reaches a clock frequency of up to 2.6 GHz together with the ARM Mali-G77 MC9 GPU. An authentic beast that comes to meet the most demanding, accompanied by options with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of memory, in addition to 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of memory.

In the cameras everything is maintained, with the quadruple lens of 64 Mpx + 8 Mpx in the wide angle, 2 Mpx macro and a last 2 Mpx lens. The same thing happens in front of the 32 Mpx selfie, located in a small front hole. Finally, in the battery, the increase in capacity reaches 4350 mAh , to take advantage of that extra screen, in this case also with the 65W load.

OPPO Reno5 Pro +, the most premium

To finish with the OPPO Reno5 family, the model that has been released this year to be the new and most powerful model is the OPPO Reno5 Pro +. In this case with the same curved screen and configuration that we have seen in the OPPO Reno 5 Pro, with exactly the same measurements, technology and resolution.

As in the previous two, the most significant change is in the processor, where in this case we meet again with Qualcomm, but specifically with the Snapdragon 865 . A chip that has a frequency of 2.84 GHz and the Adreno 650 GPU. It is the most capable of everything we have seen in 2020 and it will surely continue to give the best result for next year. But the thing does not end here, because the best also allow it to use UFS 3.1 storage technology and LPDDR5 RAM.

The cameras in this case improve to reach 52 Mpx in the main sensor , obtaining superior detail and improved results thanks to the sensor signed by Sony. The second sensor is the wide angle that grows to 16 Mpx and is accompanied by a third 2 Mpx sensor to capture depth. Finally, the fourth and last sensor is the 13 Mpx telephoto lens for long-distance photography, with the ability to zoom in 2x without any loss and 20x digital. The selfie camera is again 32 Mpx in the same position.

How could it be otherwise, this more premium model also improves the battery, reaching 4500 mAh , maintaining the democratization of 65W of power in fast charging.

Android 11 and Color OS 11

The software of the three models comes accompanied by the latest version of Android and the signature customization layer with which we will find everything we can ask for. It is possibly one of the brands that has done the best job to date for those who do not want to stray too far from Android, being able to enter the shutdown menu with smart controls, having the advantages of the smart battery and other resources based on the artificial intelligence . Customization is not lost either, to be able to enjoy the Always On Display screen or advanced camera modes with which to get more out of the lenses.

Price and release date of OPPO Reno5

For now, the information that we know comes from China and we do not have an arrival date in Spain or other countries in Europe or the world. In addition, we must bear in mind that there could be some modifications in these models when they arrive in Europe and we do not know if all of them will end up arriving in our country, we will have to wait to know more details about it.

These are the official prices in China for each configuration and model that will go on sale on December 24.
