What we like about Oppo Reno6 Pro 5G (12GB + 256GB)

  • Striking and premium 'Reno Glow' design that is slim, lightweight, and scratch-resistant.
  • Vibrant and high-quality 90Hz AMOLED display with good brightness even in direct sunlight.
  • Excellent battery life that typically lasts a full day with moderate to heavy use.
  • Ultra-fast 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 charging that can fully charge the device in under 35 minutes.
  • Impressive camera performance, especially for still photos in good lighting and selfies, with useful AI features like Bokeh Flare Portrait video.
  • Smooth and powerful performance for daily tasks, multitasking, and most gaming, thanks to the MediaTek Dimensity 1200 processor and ample RAM/storage.
  • Strong and accurate haptic feedback/vibration motor.
  • Stable connectivity for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

What we don't like about Oppo Reno6 Pro 5G (12GB + 256GB)

  • Perceived as overpriced given the competition offering better processors or features at a similar price point.
  • Lack of stereo speakers, featuring only a single (mono) speaker, which is a significant omission at its price range.
  • No official IP rating for water and dust resistance.
  • Middling performance and low quality from the 2MP macro camera.
  • Inconsistent video recording quality, particularly in low light (noticeable jitter/noise) and with the Bokeh Flare effect.
  • Some users reported the phone can get warm or overheat, especially during extended camera use or gaming sessions.
  • OPPO's software update schedule is described as slow, and some users reported minor software bugs or bloatware.
  • Absence of a 3.5mm headphone jack and wireless charging capability.

Verdict

The Oppo Reno 6 Pro 5G (12GB + 256GB) is a premium-feeling smartphone featuring a vibrant 6.55-inch Full HD+ AMOLED curved display with a smooth 90Hz refresh rate. It is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 1200 or Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 processor (depending on the region) and includes a substantial 12GB of RAM and 256GB of non-expandable storage for excellent performance and multitasking. A versatile 64MP quad-camera system (plus 8MP ultrawide, 2MP macro, and 2MP depth sensors) and a 32MP front camera deliver good daylight photos and innovative features like Bokeh Flare Portrait Video. The 4500mAh battery provides all-day life and supports ultra-fast 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 charging, which can fully charge the device in about 35 minutes. However, key drawbacks include the absence of an official IP rating for dust and water resistance, no stereo speakers (only a single bottom-firing speaker), and no wireless charging support.
