Memory and Internal

The combination of the 8nm Snapdragon 750G processor with 8 GB of RAM is remarkable. Whether playing games or downloading many applications, you will feel the smoothness of the performance. The Reno 5K smartphone has a clock speed of 2.2 GHz, which is helping to add faster performance here. Paired with Adreno 619, you can be 100% sure about the quality of the graphics unit.

This is a suitable option for all mid-range smartphones. Along with 128 GB, the basic variant of 8 GB is sufficient to store all the desired applications. If you don’t like the basic variant, you can choose the 12 GB variant that comes with 256 GB of memory. Built with UFS 2.1 technology, the important things in internal storage load faster than ever. Your phone speeds up with this technology. Unfortunately, you lose a feature that is the lack of a card slot. Don’t worry because the built-in storage is sufficient today.

Camera

Our attention to checking the camera has always been an important priority when buying a phone. The Oppo Reno 5K smartphone features a 64 MP main camera at the rear. It features an 8 MP ultrawide angle lens, a 2 MP macro sensor, and a 2 MP depth sensor. Thanks to the main camera, you get brighter pictures with saturated colors. It also works well in low-light situations. There is a 32 MP front camera that captures great details in your photos.

You may be wondering about the video recording feature. There should be no concern because you can record 4K videos with the main camera. If you compare the image with other phones, you will feel the sharp details in all your photos. Comes with gyro-EIS technology, you have all your videos automatically stabilized. There is no concern about shaky footage and even the selfie camera also works the same way.

Battery and Others

The Reno 5K phone is built with a Li-Po 4300 mAh battery which is quite decent but does not compete with today’s demanding features. Another important thing is that it comes with a 65W fast charger that only takes half an hour to be fully charged. If you forget to charge your phone at night, you can easily charge it in the morning. You will also have support for reverse charging and USB On-The-Go, but if you are expecting wireless charging, we are sorry to say that this feature is not available.

This extraordinary feature surpasses all the most well-known smartphones on the market. This is rare on other phones. You get a maximum of 35 W chargers, but 65 W is really a blessing. It manages to attract the attention of a large number of users. It is a medium-budget phone that costs $ 445 (31,999 INR) approx.
