Design and Display

Like any other premium branded design layout, the Oppo Reno 7 Pro offers a fabulous design and the slim profile makes the holding experience great with the 20:9 screen to body. However, the vibrant color choices are one of the main things that make the overall look impressive. Smartphone manufacturers produce three distinct color variants: blue, black, and gold, while there is a dedicated League of Legends variant.

The Oppo Reno 7 Pro features a unique square-shaped rear camera that stands out from the rest of the design, as the entire rear panel features a matte finish design, while the camera plate arrives in a glossy design. The side panels are similar to those in line with the recent release of the iPhone 13, making this phone an electronic copy. Even so, this phone will look thinner than the iPhone since you’re getting a small capacity battery, even the weight is around 180 grams and it offers 7.5 mm in thickness.

On the other hand, the front display panel features a slim-bezel design with a 6.55 inches punch hole-notched AMOLED panel along with an under-display fingerprint. It equips the smooth 90Hz refresh rate that enhances the browsing experience, while the phone also supports HDR 10+ content, you won’t lose details while streaming content. Plus, you don’t have to worry about using your phone outdoors as the state-of-the-art brightness rating makes everything visible with 500-920 nits brightness. All of this involves with the protection of Corning Gorilla Glass 5.

Memory and Internal

The internal system offers the latest 6nm MediaTek Dimensity 1200 Max 5G, its steroid version of the Dimensity 1200 chipset. However, the processing power is similar as the processor is clocked up to 3.0Ghz. Although it cannot be considered defective, many smartphones in the same price range do not yet have this level of processing power. In short, the performance section won’t let you down during use.

As the gaming session is cornered, the game mode will further improvise the overall gaming experience with ARM G77 MC9. Still, the software experience changes depending on the user’s perspective. There are few system applications; although you might consider them bloatware, they add some value to Android 11-based ColorOS 12. The same OS UI update has been released for OnePlus, but it is severely stuck due to incompatibility.

This will be the story for another day; anyway, let’s talk about internal software support. The Oppo Reno 7 Pro features sufficient 256GB UFS 3.1 memory type storage. With this configuration, you can choose two 8GB or 12GB RAM options that fit your needs. A similar setup is also seen on the Vivo S12 and S12 Pro smartphones. And like most high-end phones, you won’t have secondary storage.

Camera

The Oppo Reno 7 Pro camera review is worth it, as the photos from the 50MP primary sensor are fabulous. You’ll notice fine detail in every photo taken from the primary sensor, and the balance of the color palette is also excellent, making color saturation good. However, AI software sometimes degrades the photo quality.

As for the other section, like ultra-wide and macro, you won’t notice a similar quality to the main sensor. Although the dynamic range with the professional mode looks great, you’ll want to take pictures over and over again with this model. Pictures in portrait mode didn’t look as drab as pictures in low light, and the edge dictation is precisely aligned. However, the 2 MP macro lens experience sometimes feels like hit or miss.

On the other hand, the 32MP selfie camera setting brings out dynamic range color and contrast, while the overall front camera photography is excellent. But you won’t get strong color here. Instead, the color tone becomes more saturated. Like many mainstream mid-range phones, the Oppo Reno 7 Pro comes with a 4K video recording. It provides gyroscope stabilization support in the main camera setup and selfies department.

Battery and Others

The battery life of the Oppo Reno 7 Pro smartphone is Li-Po 4500 mAh battery will give you more than 5 hours of screen to perform your daily tasks. During games, screen time drops drastically to less than 3 hours. Therefore, the overall battery life experience would be average. Although the phone is getting a 65W fast charging cradle that expects to charge the phone in less than 45 minutes, battery life is still a big concern when purchasing the phone.

Also, the phone didn’t have a 3.5mm jack but you will get stereo speaker support, but the audio quality is excellent and quite loud than the average smartphone. As for the sensors and communication section, you won’t be disappointed. As for the main stage, the Oppo Reno 7 Pro cost around $587 (Rs 44,499 in India) approx and for general features, the device looks a little pricey compared to the competition.

Conclusion

The Oppo Reno 7 Pro smartphone undoubtedly has the decent performance support you can get from the Mediatek chipset, and the overall experience with the hardware and software has been good so far. But, things get a little messy with battery life as you won’t have wireless charging support even in a high price range. The camera and screen section is standard, but there’s nothing special that makes this phone stand out from the rest of the competition.

So please check the details of this phone carefully. But if we have to recommend the Oppo Reno 7 Pro to you, we recommend this phone just for its exceptional performance, power, and screen.
