OPPO Reno 6 5G Features, Display, Camera Price in India
OPPO Reno 6 5G Box Contents
You get documentation & a case with a sim card tool. You get a 65W fast charger, USB Type C wired earphones & a USB Type C cable. Let’s keep this all aside & we’ll look at the phone now.
There’s Reno Glow design just like the Pro, but interestingly the sides are metallic & flat. The Pro was completely curved but this is completely flat & hence OPPO Reno6 5G called Retro Design.
It looks premium & in-hand feel is also good. OPPO Reno6 5G not big & OPPO Reno6 5G perfect for average hands. OPPO Reno6 5G is very light & must be around 180g as OPPO Reno6 5G metal. I was completely wrong about the Pro. And this weighs 185g.
OPPO Reno 6 5G Ports & Buttons
Below, there’s a speaker grill, a Type C port, a microphone & a sim card tray. On the left, there are volume buttons(up & down) with antenna lines as OPPO Reno6 5G, a metal frame.
Above, there’s a noise cancelling microphone. On the right, there’s a power(on/off) button, with a green tinge just like the Pro.
OPPO Reno 6 5G Display
OPPO Reno6 5G lovely & a flat 6.43” AMOLED display with 90Hz fast refresh rate & Gorilla Glass 5 protection. There’s Gorilla Glass on front & AG Glass on the back, so OPPO Reno6 5G a metal-glass sandwiched design.
It also has HDR 10+ support with a 91.7% screen-to-body ratio. It has small & thin bezels on the top & sides, and the chin is smaller than average. With 90Hz fast refresh rate, it has a 180Hz touch sampling rate too & a peak brightness of 800 nits.
OPPO Reno 6 5G Specifications
OPPO Reno6 5G the first phone in India with a MediaTek Dimensity 900 5G processor. OPPO Reno6 5G based on the 6Nm architecture which is quite battery efficient.
It has only 1 variant with 8GB RAM(LPDDR4X) & 128GB storage(UFS 2.1). It has a 4300mAh battery which is slightly less compared to Pro. It has a 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 charger. OPPO claims that it can charge up from 0-100% in just 28 minutes.
So 4300mAh is slightly low & 4500mAh would’ve been better, but the fast charging makes it up.
OPPO Reno 6 5G Performance
On paper, the AnTuTu scores are above 4.2L, which is quite good. If you look at 1-2 year old Qualcomm 8-series chipets, they had similar scores of around 4.5L. And being a new phone, it can be optimized further with software updates.
You can play games with medium-high settings & probably with HDR soon. With the 90Hz refresh rate & 180Hz touch sampling rate, we found the gameplay very smooth.
Even for daily usage OPPO Reno6 5G good with fast refresh rate & super optimized ColorOS 11.3, which I like. So the combination of hardware & software is very good, you’ll enjoy it for daily use.
With ColorOS 11.3, you get features like customizable AOD, free form screenshot with granular control etc.
OPPO Reno 6 5G Camera
The Bokeh Flair Video is available, like the Pro, there’s AI Highlight Video mode, and other features are also present.
It has a triple camera setup(64MP+8MP+2MP) unlike the Pro(quad camera setup). On the front, you get a 32MP punch-hole selfie camera sensor.
Sensors
You get all the sensors. It has an in-display fingerprint scanner with face unlock that works well.
OPPO Reno 6 5G Connectivity
OPPO Reno6 5G a 5G chipset. In the Pro, you have 11 band support & we are trying to find out about this one.
In the Chinese variant there are 7 bands supported, so it must be similar(7/11 bands). It has WiFi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, Dual 4G VoLTE, WiFi Calling & NFC connectivity.
Other Features
It has Camera2API support & Widevine L1 support for HD streaming. There’s no notification light/FM Radio & the SAR values are within limits. And no 3.5mm jack as well.
Multimedia
It has a big, beautiful & immersive AMOLED screen with good viewing angles. It has good quality mono speakers & the overall multimedia experience will be good.
There’s an extra feature, it has virtual RAM which can be expanded up to 5GB. But it isn’t actual RAM.
I said OPPO Reno6 5G was interesting at the start, because the Pro is priced at Rs 39,999 & OPPO Reno 6 5G is priced at Rs 29,999. And there are certain things that aren't available on the Pro, but on this one. Like, the flat metal frame. And in terms of OS/UI & all other features OPPO Reno6 5G equivalent to the Pro.
Overall, at this price OPPO Reno6 5G is better value for money than OPPO Reno6 Pro 5G.
