Oppo Reno16 in for review | Infinium-tech

Now that we’ve unboxed the Pro, it’s time to do the same with the global Oppo Reno16.

It’s not often that a vanilla model is visually indistinguishable from a Pro model, but here we are. The Reno16 looks similar. It is also built around the same 6.32-inch display.

Shares the vanilla 3D Pop Planet design and you can see the nebula-like effect on the back of the phone in the shot below. We like it, and it has a sexy design, just like Oppo’s Reno series.

Here’s a look at the implemented design tiktok.

Having a great selfie camera is also in line with the philosophy of the Reno series, and fortunately, the vanilla model is also equipped with the same impressive front camera. It’s a wider than 18mm unit with a bright f/2.0 lens and a good-sized 1/2.75-inch imager.

To put this in context, the sensor size for selfies on the Reno 16 is similar to the front cameras of flagship cameraphones Vivo X300 Ultra and Xiaomi 17 Ultra, and it surpasses that of the iPhone 17 Pro models and the Galaxy S26 Ultra. We expect great selfies from the Reno16.

We have already covered the differences between the Reno16 and Reno16 Pro in the unboxing of the Pro model, so we are not discussing it here. But the screen is technically one of those differences.

And you would never guess it by looking at it (even side by side). The Reno16 has the same 6.32-inch 1216x2640px AMOLED panel on paper, but its maximum refresh rate is slightly lower at 120Hz.

It’s a beautiful and bright panel, and you’ll be happy looking at it all day long. Just make sure the size is correct.

The Oppo Reno16 is now available globally, starting at €899 for the 8/512GB version, but there’s a €100 discount if you order by July 31st. The phone is available in Pop White, Twilight Violet and Dream Purple.

The box contains the phone itself, a clear case, an 80W charger, and a USB-C to USB-A cable.
