Oppo Reno 8 Pro Updates

After many years of waiting for this great phone to launch, we finally have our eyes on the future and believe that it's time for me to take my own advice on this smartphone because honestly I was shocked when i saw all these rumors about the Oppo Reno 8 Pro. It feels like an old device because of its design and looks, but it comes with a lot of features, so let's jump right in.




The new design? What a huge upgrade


Okay! So just say goodbye to those boring black and white colors for this beautiful futuristic handset that everyone wants. Its sleek curved glass makes an appearance to match the color it has on the box. Also, it looks way more spacious than the regular series model.


The main camera setup is now a bit different and has an ultra wide angle lens instead of an telephoto shooter. This means that every time you want to zoom into something you will be able to capture more pictures than before. That's enough for me though.


The front camera setup isn't much different from anything else except again all the usual selfies!


I love the rear cameras because its not only capable of shooting amazing detail shots like those you see in YouTube videos, but also it allows you to record your moments that you are having on your phone. But most importantly its good for video calls too. Although there is still no NFC built onto this phone. Will they eventually add one? Not sure.


So what are the big upgrades between the two models? Well, the biggest upgraded part in the case of this device is obviously our battery. A really powerful 5,000 mAh battery means that you can take photos and run a few apps in the background while also getting the required juice from watching tv or scrolling social media. You can do all of that without worrying about power. And besides that, they added a charging speed of 45 W.


Another major upgrade is the chipset. Yes, you read that correctly. With this device, we get the Snapdragon 720G. At the moment it is the fastest chip anyone has ever seen. We got a chance to test out the RAM and storage configurations as well as the resolution. It gives you an ample amount of storage depending on how many photos you want.


The OS on top of that, you get to enjoy some pretty awesome software like HeyTap/Bixby, Netflix, Hulu, TikTok, etc. All of which i found quite appealing. I think both phones run very smooth and I am definitely looking forward to using them both next year.


Finally, lets talk about the display. As mentioned before, the phone has a 6.43 inches IPS LCD panel that's really nice. Of course, the 4K OLED option is really cool because it delivers a high quality display with a refresh rate of 144 Hz. There is no touch support though because the phone is designed for gesture control only.


The camera features come across as rather good considering that the device is $1,000 cheaper than the original device. They include night mode, Panorama Mode, 360° Panoramas, HDR10+ and Live Video recording. If you need to shoot something interesting don't hesitate to use this device. The night shot capabilities are especially impressive. Just take a look at this amazing image that I created and that's what's being taken by the device next year.


Although the hardware specs aren't that huge compared to other devices. The processing power should satisfy any user who cares about their system performance. Speaking of, its a super fast processor at least for the current generation of smartphones.


The question is that if it is such a low price considering what it has to offer it also costs $1,500 more than its predecessor. Why would that happen? Maybe thats why people are always finding fault in everything but the fact that this company sells subpar products. Regardless of the reason, I think it could be a little bit exaggerated. This won't be the end because i hope that you guys love it just like i did.


I hope this helps and thanks for following my blog, hope you guys are happy with it. My new year resolutions I will be running as soon as possible. Hope you enjoyed!
