i just got one Reno 12 pro 5G , 2 months ago , i´m coming from a iphone user for quit some time , i was very ceptical about changing to Android , but i have to say i am loving it !!!! 100% recommend this phone .
Just got the Reno 12 pro. For any normal phone user this phone is exceptional. Ignore the comments about the "chip set" it works brilliantly. And the battery life is absolutely insane. Highly recommend this phone!
Which source of the market you bought it from? I see only India, Malaysia, and the Philippines and I'm wondering how good it would look if you import it
How about a previous user in the Find X series? I'm using Find X2 Pro and my camera is now broken, wondering should I wait for the new Find X series or get the Reno
Right? but i think the MTK dimensity 7300 only for the basic version (not pro ver) tho, just saw that at gsmarena. Kinda curious about how they know about the spec and the information on internet about these two version are so less...
I have now oppo reno 6 pro 5G gaming version. waiting for delivery oppo reno 12 pro 5G. I love my reno 6 pro. And i can't wait for new one. I always was big fan of sony. unfortunatly now they don't have interesting model. Oppo is made on sony components so this is why they have very good product
Yes I still love my old oppo phone since years. But now it's time for something new, but the decision is more than difficult this time :/ tested a lot of phone's the last week's which I didn't liked :/ where are the phones which just take beautiful good photos without crazy AI retouch, which make the photos looks unnatural , especially in colors and brightness. For example when I take a photo of my living room I don't want it that the floor is in a complety different colour in the photo result 😅
@@Ox7gplus yes I tested pixel 8. One of my family member bought this, but it's not a phone for me. I think you like it or you don't like it. There's nothing between:'D
Oppo Reno12 Pro, you get 5G, 512GB ROM + 12GB RAM and SD Card slot, 89.8% Screen to Body Ratio, 1080p 60fps, Extremely long battery life, and AntiAging that means you can throw this Oppo on Sand, snow, and it has very good splash proof (almost water proof but not 100%)
Hi Chris, great job as usual, love your work! Wanna ask you, will there be a (Final) thoughts/review from you on the Honor 200 Pro? I will get it on the first week of July, can't wait to get my hands on it, i really glad i preordered it with gifts, it feels a very good deal, and the phone seems very top-notch in all apsects ( Extra Honor Pad 8 and the 100W charger, which should be included in the box for everyone, but yeah companies still exclude them most of the time.) That would be awesome. Greetings from Hungary, cheers! :)
@@HyperXcube Hello! 🙂 Will see about that, when i'll have mine, i'll test it thoroughly, 99% of the reviewers ( both foreigners and whom i trust in Hungary too, who all do great reviews, and are not bunglers/con artists) said the cameras are very good on the Honor 200 pro (in the evening too), so i don't worry about it, the ultrawide is weaker, but, that's really the case in most of the phones. It's an upper midrange phone, so it'll do for me in everyday usage, even flagship phones don't always excel in all their cameras performance, so i don't care that much, hence the price difference according to those. Cheers!
ISN'T THIS CLEAN AND CLEAR MISMARKETING BY OPPO!???? AREN'T ALL "ALLOYS" ALSO MADE OUT OF METAL ???!! THEN HOW DO THEY CLAIM THAT IT ISNT METAL BUT ALSO AN ALLOY.... ALLOY OF WHAT ,???😂😂😂😅😅
Can't believe the oppo Reno 8 pro came out in 2022 here in the UK then just 2 years later we already on the Reno 12 😂😂 Are they bringing out 2 phones a year 😆 It pissed me off that. Cos I remember getting it and then seeing the Reno 10 a few weeks later in India 🤷 So how old was the Reno 8 B4 they released it in blighty 🤷 But to be fair, the 8 obviously still has a better chipset than it's 4 younger brothers lol How that happened I don't know and I'm running colour os 14.1 on android 14. Updated in march so I'm not too bothered now. Plus the 8 is better looking too.. So when I upgrade I'll probably either go for the next Find or Samsung S as the Reno's are getting uglier and less powered
Wow, the Reno 12 Pro looks amazing! That AI Portrait Camera has me seriously considering an upgrade. I think the Dimensity 7300 Energy chipset seems very interesting one in terms of the performance.
I reckon it must be hard to review mid rangers - almost harder than flagships. While the likes of Apples iPhones are hardly distinguishable (if at all) these days - and the Samsungs also regress to offer progress only in a miniscule scale. Midrangers used to be a bit more daring .. (the Galaxy A80 with its swivel camera, the many pop-up, slide up or turn around cameras, the popping colours and overall design like the Essential phone, the HTC U Ultra with sapphire screen etc. ) - but these days, the mid rangers look interchangable and overall ... quite boring, too.
Specs is only part of what you buy in a phone. Software is also important. I'm currently using the Reno 11, and Oppo's ColorOS is I can say, on par with Samsung's OneUI in terms of smoothness and UI friendliness.
Uncle Spurt is great but aren't you sick of reviewing these phones that all look the same and all so similar. One day there will be something different to review.
Wow the Reno 12 is out and I'm still rocking the original Reno (10X Zoom). Disappointed that there is still a front facing camera; I've been waiting out for a phone with an under the display camera as I've been spoiled by the Reno 10X Zoom's pop up camera. Great review as always!
@@kpehe100 My phone takes excellent selfies with a pop up camera; I don't like the punch holes or "pills" interrupting pretty much all modern screens. Thankfully my phone was the fastest on the market when I bought it, it's still capable today so there's no hurry to update 😃
Same! I'm still with my 10x Zoom since 2019 because it's still the only phone in the market without a dot or bar on the screen (for the selfie camera).
I'm in the market for a new phone, as the battery life on my a52s is not what it used to be. I might have considered the oppo if it had been £350-£400. Think I'll go with the poco f6 instead
Like everything Oppo and oneplus, it's a very nice design. They did a nice job of making the bezels nearly disappear. Although, I do prefer a curved display over a flat screen.
@@AldoScotia indeed, the 12r does have a wonderful screen. However, I already own the 1 + 12 and use it as my daily driver. I also own an 11 and use it as my secondary device. Thanks for the tip.
Gorgeous looking phone. A 6.1 incher would have been a banger. Autofocus in Selfie shooter is a great plus. Ois would have been icing on cake. Only downside is that 50mp zoom sensor wasted for just 2x zoom. 3.5x zoom would have been right
I’m ready for the OnePlus 13 to come out. It’s gonna be a BEAST! Snapdragon 8 gen4 processor, 6000 mah battery with 100 watt charging with improved cameras for photos & video. The best part is that it’ll be considerably cheaper than the Samsung Ultra & the IPHONE ProMax.😅
@@minskeybeautyenterprise4991 When the OnePlus12 came out, it retailed for$899.99. They knocked off $99.99 from the price, then dropped an additional $99.99 for trade in of any device in any condition. Which made it $699.99. This is in America, I know prices are different in other countries. If they do the same thing for the 13, you can expect a somewhat similar price.
I’ve had a company phone for the last 20 years the latest being iPhone 11 well me and my team just got the old redundancy chucked in our chops so I had to get a phone all of my own finally went for this one so looked for reviews this was the first and only one I needed to satisfy my choice.

Sounds good I do wish oppo company makes softwear and android updates like Samsung for there mid range mobiles more updates that's there down full only fantastic smartphones but be better with updates

@@Mash-NL Still happy, no issues to report. I genuinely do not think a high end phone is necessary, this is absolutely fine for me.
I just picked up a OnePlus 10t for 220$ , 150w charging goes insane ❤ thanks for your reviews 🎉
Is it new or refurbished?
Excellent condition
Really love the descriptive review. I love this phone's features like 5000mAH fast charging battery & Dimensity 7300 chipset.
It's the same of reno 12
It's weird that they downgraded the chipset. I'm using the 11 pro right now with 8200.
exactly, but it seems like a successor to the Reno 10 pro instead of the Reno 11 pro
