Oppo Reno 3 Pro smartphone review with key features

Oppo is one of the top five in the ranking of quality smartphones. The gadgets of this brand cannot be called budget, but each of them has unique technologies, attractive interface and advanced security features.

Based on this, interest in the novelty of December, already last year, is at a high level, and we are talking about the Oppo Reno 3 Pro. The manufacturers presented the fans of the brand with a device with a large screen, powerful hardware and a capacious battery. But let's start in order.

Brand name

OPPO Electronics Corporation is a division of the largest Chinese home appliance manufacturer BBK Electronics LTD. The brand specializes in the production of household or consumer goods, as you like, premium appliances.

Considering the connection with BBK, it is possible to allegorically name the year of the brand creation in 1995, but the trademark registration for the OPPO brand was in 2001. The official date of foundation is the date of commencement of work - 2004.

During its formation, the company was engaged in the creation of MP3 and MP4 players, which were successful both domestically and abroad. The company started producing communicators in 2008 and released its first push-button telephone.

It should be noted that OPPO is serious about promoting its products, sparing neither money nor time. To this end, the company sponsors the T20 Cricket Champions League in India, various shows in Asia, and in 2015 it became a sponsor of the Spanish football team Barcelona. Also, you can often see faces of famous people in advertisements of goods, for example, the Find X903 model was presented by Leonardo DiCaprio himself.

In 2013, OPPO created their subsidiary company called OnePlus, which manufactures and distributes smartphones primarily through online sales. The popularity of OPPO models did not diminish from this.

Also in 2013, the company entered the Russian market and already in 2014 opened an official representative office in the Russian Federation, according to some sources, after 6 months it was closed due to low sales. However, in 2017, the brand returned to Russia again.

OPPO has become one of the best Chinese flagship manufacturers to enter the markets of countries such as Mexico, USA, Egypt, Australia, England, Russia, etc.

The brand can provide a list of its popular models, both the thinnest in the world and a model with a unique design and case material. Do not forget about the proprietary firmware - ColorOS based on Android.

There are several lines of smartphones from OPPO:

  • line A - budget devices with a nice design, good screen and performance;
  • the F line is no longer a budget, but still not a flagship option, where the emphasis is on the quality of the photo of the main and front cameras;
  • R / Reno line - flagships that are able to win the heart of everyone, including at a considerable price, but lovers of gluttonous games or powerful applications should choose a model from other lines;
  • Find X line - creative gadgets with cutting-edge technology.

We briefly outlined the OPPO company, and now is the time to move on to its next novelty.

Overview

The presentation of Reno 3 Pro took place on December 26, 2019 and, judging by the reviews, the new product of the past year was recognized as one of the most beautiful from the OPPO brand.

On that day, two models of smartphones were presented: Reno 3 and Reno 3 Pro, the difference between the models is not so significant, but the Pro version wins already on a visual level.

The Pro version features a large 6.5-inch perforated display, 4 rear cameras and increased performance.

Also, the owners of the Pro version will have another surprise, which will be discussed a little later.

Equipment

The section is not particularly important, but it still causes some curiosity, because it is always interesting to look at the difference in the configuration and the approach to how it is implemented.

So, the device comes with:

  • documentation on the use of the device;
  • Silicone Case;
  • small box with headphones;
  • USB cable, where the standard cord length;
  • adapter for 30

Everything is completed neatly and practically.

Design

The curved glass accentuates the slim body of the smartphone, the back cover of which is made in an interesting new mixing and coloring technique, where, thanks to the light, the metallic texture turns into glass. It looks fascinating and stylish.

The device is planned to be released in 4 colors: in black, in white, and in two gradient colors, so to speak. There will also be a limited edition of this model in classic blue (Pantone), please note that the accessories that come with the kit will also be blue.

A little about the dimensions:

  • length - 159.4 mm;
  • width - 72.4 mm;
  • thickness - 7.7 mm;
  • weight - 171 gr.

By reducing the bulge of the module on the rear panel, the phone is now more comfortable to hold in your hand.

Screen

The front panel is covered with a protective glass from Corning Gorilla Glass 5 and reveals a 6.5-inch AMOLED display with FULL HD + resolution, where the refresh rate is 90 Hz.

The aspect ratio is 20: 9 with a resolution of 2400 × 1080 and the pixel density is 405ppi, which is quite high. The color rendition is good and the display parameters give grounds for good viewing angles and the ability to work with the device in the sun.

In this model, we will find the front camera in a small round notch, not in the teardrop-shaped one, located in the upper left corner of the screen. Thus, the useful area of ​​the screen is 102 sq. cm.

Summing up all the characteristics, we come to the conclusion that the gadget is perfect for watching videos, for games, for surfing the Internet, even for working moments. Colors, colors and screen size make it all fun.

A few words about performance.

Filling

The winter novelty is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 765G chip, suitable for 5G / 4G / 3G / 2G frequency bands. Often, Snapdragon 765G is put on the same level with Snapdragon 855.

The platform of the gadget is Android 10, made in the shell ColorOS 7.

The manufacturers have manufactured the chipset using 7 nm technology, and it supports the artificial intelligence system. The graphics editor here is Adreno 620, which can cope with graphic processing with high quality.

RAM and built-in memory will be in 3 configurations: 8/128 GB, 12/128 GB and 12/256 GB. The operating system runs at a frequency of 1866 MHz. There is no memory card slot.

A small conclusion on the section, we should note that the filling pleases with its improvements and the smartphone is suitable not only for active games, but also for large applications.

Autonomy

Another joy for many users is the battery capacity.

The non-removable battery in the new model has a capacity of 4025 mAh, Li-polymer type.

With such a capacity, the gadget can be operated for 2 days, with an economical consumption of energy, the charge can be enough for 3 days.

It is important to note that the battery supports fast charging at 30W with support for VOOC Flash Charge 4.0, which allows you to replenish 50% of the charge in 20 minutes and up to 70% in 30 minutes.

Thus, you don't have to worry about the battery level.

Camera

One of the exciting sections, since there were a lot of rumors and variations about what the new model will please.

The manufacturers have equipped the main or rear camera with 4 modules: 48 megapixel resolution - f / 1.7, module from Sony IMX586, which has optical image stabilization and LED flash; 8 MP resolution - f / 2.2 and this is an ultra wide angle lens; resolution 13 MP - f / 2.4 and this is a telephoto lens, where there is a 5x hybrid zoom and 20x digital zoom, there is also a module with a resolution of 2 MP - f / 2.4, acting as a proximity sensor.

The front camera was equipped with a resolution of 32 Mp - f / 2.4.

The indicators of the camera modules indicate that the photos will be highly detailed, even night photos and photos taken "on the go" will be with good sharpness.

Ahead of the questions about “how does the device take pictures? how does he take pictures at night? ”, below are examples of photos.

Communications

Here, almost everything, like in a pharmacy, is clear and without any special changes: support for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, USB.

Contactless payment technology (NFC) is present, which only attracts greater approval of this model.

Unlocking the gadget is carried out using a fingerprint scanner, which is built into the screen.

In the course of all the changes, it turns out that unlocking and payment can be done literally with one touch.

Price policy

After information about the functionality, natural questions are about the average price and how much is this happiness.

The start of sales of the 8/128 GB configuration (at a price of about 35,000 rubles) began on December 31, and 12/128 GB (38,000 rubles) and 12/256 GB - on January 10, 2020. But this is still in China, prices and dates in other countries will be announced later.
