It’s startlingly asymmetrical, but the larger moving part means there’s also room for a separate LED flash alongside the camera. Instead of raising the entire top of the phone itself, as on Oppo’s own Find X from last year, or the more common approach of integrating a small square-ish module into the phone’s top edge, the Reno’s selfie camera is housed inside a lopsided section that rises from the right-hand corner of the display like a shark fin. The Reno’s bezel-less design is completed by a 16-megapixel pop-up selfie camera that’s by far the weirdest one I’ve seen yet. There’s an optical fingerprint sensor integrated into the display, which I’ve found to be very fast and reliable, and the earpiece is subtly integrated into the top edge of the phone. The border around the screen is slightly thicker on the bottom edge than the other three, but it’s still only about the same thickness as an iPhone XR bezel. The only nit I have to pick about the Reno’s build quality is that the volume buttons feel a little loose, which is surprising from a company that tends to put an emphasis on tactile clickiness.Īs you’d expect from a Chinese flagship phone in 2019, the Reno is a near-as-dammit bezel-less device without a notch. There’s no headphone jack, either, but thankfully Oppo is using USB-C on the Reno - not a given for this company - and includes a pair of reasonably good in-ear buds. There’s no camera bump at all, which is welcome given the thickness of the device a small nubbin below the cameras prevents them from coming into contact with any flat surface you might place the phone on. It’s also quite an attractive one, with a sleek frosted glass finish that’s broken by a strip for the Oppo logo and another for the cameras. Let me be very clear that like the OnePlus 7 Pro, this is a Big Phone for Big Phone People. Even my iPhone XS Max felt small after a few days using the Reno. This doesn’t bother me, but I have gigantic hands. At 9.3mm thick, the Reno is half a millimeter thicker than the OnePlus Pro 7 and weighs slightly more at 210g. The screen doesn’t slope on the sides, which is probably what accounts for the slightly smaller measurement. The Reno is roughly the same size and shape as the OnePlus 7 Pro, with a similar curved back and a front panel dominated by a huge 6.6-inch screen. There’s also a 5G version of the 10x Zoom called the Oppo Reno 5G.)
(Not to be confused with the non-zooming variant of this phone, which also has a slower processor. As we’ll get into later, “Oppo Reno 10x Zoom” is a bad name for reasons beyond its simple unwieldiness, so I’m just going to call this phone the Reno from here on out.
