What customers don't like about Oppo Reno5 Pro Plus 5G (12GB + 256GB)

  • Absence of a 3.5mm headphone jack.
  • Audio performance from the single (or bottom-firing stereo) speaker is often described as lacking bass and low-end extension, and not on par with true flagship devices.
  • Secondary 2MP macro and depth cameras are considered by many as marketing gimmicks and not very useful in practice.
  • Some users report the phone can experience heating problems.
  • Lack of an official IP rating for water and dust resistance, which is a letdown for a phone in its price range.
  • Some high-end games may have optimization issues with the MediaTek chipset.
