Oppo Reno Ace 2

Display Features

The gadget has a 6.55-inch OLED screen. The maximum brightness value is 500 nits, but in good lighting conditions this figure rises to 1100 nits. There is no cutout for a selfie camera on the display, only a hole is present.

Display options

As for the refresh rate of the screen, it is 90 Hz. Doubts may arise here, because now you can find more impressive parameters on the market, nevertheless, the same function is implemented by individual manufacturers in different ways. Therefore, it is difficult to call this indicator a disadvantage, since functionality does not fall from this. The manufacturer paid special attention to the touch sampling frequency. Accordingly, the higher this value, the faster the device reacts to touch. By increasing this frequency, the developers have reduced the response time of the display to third-party touches. And if in everyday life such an innovation may go unnoticed, then in the game mode it is strongly felt. If we compare the new product with its predecessor, then the parameter has increased by 45 Hz.

The fingerprint scanner can be found under the screen. Plus it has been updated to the latest version. There is no need to complain about his work, tk. the reaction rate can be safely called high. There are no interruptions in work, so you should not worry.

External design OPPO Ace2

Again, if you equate OPPO Ace2 with the previous model, you can find significant changes in the appearance.The brand has always adhered to a vertical camera layout in its designs. Now you can see the replacement of the circle shape by four lenses, which are located in the rounded area. Another detail, albeit minor, is that the manufacturer has made its logo horizontal at the bottom of the lid.

5G availability

But 5G technology requires separate consideration. Of course, the presence of such a function is considered a significant advantage among users. However, questions arise about its safety, moreover, energy consumption is much higher than in the "standard" state. To compensate for this nuance, a huge number of components and a capacious battery are required, which means that the weight of the smartphone will increase, this cannot be called a plus. But the developers were able to keep the weight of the device at 185 g. This figure can be called exceptional for flagships with this technology. And if initially users do not pay attention to the weight of the gadget, then in the future it often becomes a serious problem, especially during games.

Overall dimensions of the device

Speaking of dimensions, it should be noted right away that the smartphone is much thinner than last year's Reno Ace. This was facilitated by the location of the buttons and the overall weight, as well as a practical cover that ensured convenient use of the device.

To assess the overall performance of the phone will allow a detailed examination of the main parameters regarding its functionality.

Basic phone parameters

The developers drew attention to the fact that OPPO Ace2 acts as a smartphone for gamers. It is logical that a high-frequency screen needs a processor that can handle tasks of high complexity, and there was one. Thanks to it, the performance of the phone has significantly increased, but the power consumption, on the contrary, has significantly decreased. So, we can conclude that the developers managed to combine the incongruous, not only keeping the original parameters, but also improving them significantly.

Memory volumes

Particularly impressed by the size of the RAM, which showed 8 GB in the initial configuration and 12 GB in the subsequent. The volumes of the drive are 128 GB / 256 GB. The smartphone is powered by ColorOS 7.1, which is based on Android 10. This solution helps the smartphone withstand the load of many resource-intensive applications and games.

Heat spread

The most common problem in gaming phones is heat dissipation. However, the manufacturer took this point into account, making some adjustments to his creation. The body of the gadget is additionally equipped with a new type of thermal buffer material. This substance has special properties that have a gradual effect on heat, due to which the speed of its movement slows down. The main advantage of this solution is that it doesn't feel like the palms are heating up with the device. The streams are distributed evenly and gradually, which makes them much less visible.

Charging speed (wired and wireless)

The fast charging of the model also did not go unnoticed. The original wired charger allows you to charge your phone in 5 minutes to 25% and in 12 minutes to 50%. A full charge will take no more than 35 minutes. If we compare the model with previous smartphones, then the time it takes to charge has slightly increased, but the development is still not inferior to other brands. The smartphone is rightfully considered one of the fastest charging devices on the market in 2020.

In fact, wireless charging has attracted significantly more interest than wired charging. Thanks to high technology development, a full charge of the phone takes less than 56 minutes. Nevertheless, if we consider the situation objectively, now the technology market is ready to offer a huge number of gadgets with support for wireless charging, so this phenomenon no longer surprises users.

Camera resolution, their characteristics

Talking about the OPPO Ace2 body, one cannot fail to note a nice design with four cameras.The main camera has a resolution of 48 megapixels, the resolution of the ultra-wide-angle lens is 8 megapixels, and the maximum viewing angle is 119 °. Also included are a 2-megapixel portrait module and a 2-megapixel macro module. Nothing particularly surprising, but here the manufacturer did not try to impress the audience, but simply kept the positions already taken earlier. The main focus of the development is gaming, so it is in this area that the phone can be called really advanced. And if the last two modules can be called a standard marketing ploy, typical for most brands, then there is real benefit from a 48-megapixel module. Support for 10x digital zoom and various photo modes makes your shots truly impressive.

Moreover, the camera's professional mode, with the XHD option activated, is able to create photos with a resolution of 100 megapixels, which can be called an incredible phenomenon. And if competitors are trying to equip their gadgets with 100-megapixel lenses, presenting this as a kind of miracle, then OPPO gave users the opportunity to independently increase the resolution if they wish. The main advantage of this ability is getting a much more detailed image than standard ones. In addition, the Soloop software is immediately installed on the smartphone, which makes processing a number of videos a simple task.

There is the possibility of recording video in 4K format. Slow motion is also amazing, its value was 240 frames.

But there is not much to say about the front-facing 16-megapixel camera. Its aperture is f / 2.4. All the features and add-ons needed to create selfies are present. The possibility of receiving video in FULLHD format is not excluded. Such values ​​cannot be called striking, but this is more than enough for everyday use.

When to expect a novelty

The OPPO model is presented in three colors: silver, gray and purple, which is quite impressive, because often smartphones of this level do not please with a variety of colors. The phone will go on sale on April 20 in China.

Benefits:
  • Large display that meets all modern standards;
  • High processor power;
  • Large amounts of memory;
  • High speed wired charging;
  • Availability of wireless charging;
  • Modern design;
  • 4 main lenses.
Disadvantages:
  • No microSD slot and standard headphone jack.

The announcement of the novelty caused a huge stir among the fans, which indicates a high interest of the audience. It is planned that the gadget will become one of the best-selling smartphones this year.
