OPPO Reno 12 5G Review: AI Powerhouse or Overhyped?
Source: Cashify English
OPPO Reno 12 5G was launched recently with an elegant design. OPPO added several outstanding features like an AI eraser, AI recording, AI writer, AI avatar, beacon links, etc, which are the latest in the Reno series. Its camera performs very well in different environments. Its curved display gives it a stunning look, and when you use it without a protective cover, it feels skinny in your hand. I used the Sunset Peach colour, and I really liked it. Its powerful processor gives a strong performance and makes it normal in every condition. So you will not have any heating problems with it. Its battery life is also good, and adding more beauty, it’s fast charging with an 80W charger.

A Month with the OPPO Reno12 5G: Is it Worth its Asking Price?
Source: Unbox English
While we understand that the OPPO Reno12 5G is on the pricey side, OPPO did a great job in making it as balanced as possible, especially with all the software optimizations. While hardware is a major deciding factor in buying a new device, we also believe that good software is just as important to maximize a device’s full potential. So if you’re after a midrange phone that is well-balanced in both hardware and software, the OPPO Reno12 5G is a good choice.

60% Oppo Reno 12 Review – Budget smartphone with 50MP sensor
Source: Amateur Photographer English
On paper, there’s a lot of good specifications on offer with the Oppo Reno 12. For a budget smartphone, to have a 50MP main sensor is pretty good going. The fact it’s joined by a mediocre ultrawide and a terrible macro lens is a shame, but not wholly unexpected at this price point. With the main lens, you can get some nice results. If you have a lot of blue and green in a scene, watch out for overprocessing and whacked up saturation, but otherwise the images are nice enough. Overall, this is a good phone at its price, but right now there are generally better options out there. Take a look at the Google Pixel 8a, the OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite and depending on the market you’re in, the Tecno Camon Premier 5G.

75% OPPO Reno 12 5G review: stylish design with Gen AI goodness
Source: 91mobiles English
The OPPO Reno 12 5G is priced at Rs 32,999 and is a unique offering in the mid-range segment as the only device with generative AI integration across the board. The device cleverly integrates its AI features to boost its camera capabilities and user productivity, a combination that makes for a pleasing smartphone experience. As innovative as it is, the choice of chipset remains one of my biggest gripes with the device. The Motorola Edge 50 Pro (review), the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ (review) and the POCO F6 (review) constitute its chief rivals, and all of these smartphones have better chipsets compared to the OPPO Reno 12 5G. While the camera has seen a downgrade from its predecessor, the Reno 11, and the user interface remains somewhat cluttered, the phone still offers a distinctive AI-powered experience, an impressive display, and reliable battery life. It’s a good choice for users seeking a productivity-focused device and to explore the possibilities of generative AI in a smartphone.

The OPPO Reno12 5G Makes AI More Accessible
Source: Unbox English
The Reno12 5G is generally a decent upgrade over its predecessor. We don’t mind the omission of the telephoto camera–the Dimensity 7300 and the AI features OPPO implemented to the Reno12 5G delivered a better overall performance in the brand’s push for an AI phone.

OPPO Reno12 5G Review
Source: Yugatech English
The OPPO Reno12 5G has a price tag of PHP 24,999 pesos. Pre-order is currently ongoing until July 19 and is available in all OPPO authorized offline stores nationwide. All preorders of the OPPO Reno12 Series 5G come with a free S29 Night Light Bluetooth Speaker. It’s a great choice for users to have as their new daily driver especially if they are into their details in photography and prefer curved displays. But if you’re someone who likes upping the graphics in your mobile games all the way to the max or detests bloatware on their phones, you might be upset with this guy.

Oppo Reno12 Battery test
Source: DxOMark English
Oppo Reno12 battery earned high marks for its very balanced and impressive performance in autonomy, charging, and efficiency, signifying a well-optimized system. The device’s autonomy lasted for more than 70 hours under moderate usage. The device remained strong in indoor testing, losing only around 1% of power per night. In specific use-case testing, the device’s autonomy was above average, except when listening to music. The autonomy of the device was generally great when on the go, except when calling, which showed below-average autonomy. The Oppo Reno12 is equipped with a 5000 mAh battery and comes with an 80W charger, which fully charges the device in 53 minutes, faster than average. The powerful charger also helped the device regain more than seven and a half hours of autonomy on average from a 5-minute charging boost.

ARM Mali-G615 MP2: Mid-range graphics chip for smartphones with 2 of the 6 possible cores. Based on the fourth generation of Valhall architecture. Offers variable rate shading.

Dimensity 7300: The Dimensity 7300 is a mid-range processor with an integrated 5G modem. The CPU part integrates four ARM Cortex-A78 cores with up to 2.5 GHz and four Cortex-A55 power cores with up to 2 GHz.

6.70":

It is a small display format for smartphones. You shouldn't be severely defective in vision, and you won't see much detail on the screen and only have a small resolution available. For that, the device should be small and handy, easy to transport.

» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.


75.22%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
