“Positioned towards the more affordable end of the spectrum, the standard Oppo Reno4 5G’s Snapdragon 765G chip, 6.4-inch screen, SuperVOOC charging, and triple camera look like a solid choice in the crowded mid-range space. Its main and ultra-wide cameras deliver acceptable exposure with decent contrast in most images, stable white balance, and pleasing bokeh results. With no tele-lens, zoom shots at long distances can be less than ideal, so stick to just a little pinch zoom where you can. The Oppo Reno4 5G struggles in low-light situations in stills and videos. Seek out brighter conditions, though, and the Oppo’s reliable autofocus, effective stabilization, and improved all-round performance should satisfy the casual smartphone snapper.”

“With the Oppo Reno4 5G, you're buying a rock-solid smartphone that's really fast courtesy of its Snapdragon 765 chipset. Current standards such as 5G and 128 GB of internal memory make this affordable smartphone a long-term option. The design, the processing muscle, and especially the photos taken with the triple camera setup, including videos that are very appealing to the eyes. However, the Reno4 5G is a bit boring due to its few unique selling propositions and far too expensive for the hardware offered.”

“It’s hard to knock what Oppo has delivered in this phone. As far as mid-range efforts go, the Oppo Reno 4 5G is bang-on brilliant. It is affordable and excellent. It is a true competitor in the 5G space, because it brings value in spades and delivers a 5G phone most will appreciate. There are things Oppo could do to tweak the package, such as wireless charging or water resistance, but overall, the Reno 4 5G delivers.”

In Depth

The Oppo Reno4 5G is the middle child in a family of phones from Oppo. It has many of the same features as the Reno4 Pro 5G, including its super-fast charging abilities and it’s 90Hz refresh rate.

Key differences include:

  • Weaker 48MP, 8MP ultra-wide and 2MP monochrome lenses
  • 128GB of storage and 8GB of RAM
  • Bigger and heavier than the Pro
  • Display not as bright as the Pro
  • Lower price than the Pro

On the design front, the phone is slightly larger than its pricier sibling but doesn’t include the fancy design elements like the rainbow stamped backplate with the OP logo throughout. The display is also flat instead of curved.

The Reno4 also sacrifices some quality with the cameras, namely, the ultra night mode, which it does not have. But the cameras on the Reno4 are still good. There’s just that little bit of polish missing.

It has the same on-screen fingerprint scanner and the same OS setup as the Pro. Battery life is comparable as well.

There’s a slight loss in storage and RAM but nothing too major unless you’re really pushing the edges of multitasking performance.

In conclusion, the Reno4 is your average mid-tier phone with a decent amount of power and capabilities but without the fancy polish — or price stage — of the Pro.
