Oh, made a mistake here. I did some research and found out because I am a resident of China, we have an additional Reno 8 Pro Plus series which is also the Reno 8 Pro global version. The Reno 8 Pro that is in China just doesn't exist outside, which is a bummer, really, because I feel like the Chinese version of the Reno 8 Pro was what OPPO really worked on in terms of the texture and overall, the value.

@@me5425 yes basically exact same phone these 2. Exept 8 pro china using snapdragon 7 gen 1. All these phones better UI and looks better but Xiaomi 12t pro whips them.
An excellent well balanced review sir. I mean, if they could have provided a OIS and a proper ultrawide sensor this could have become a phone to beat. In this phone they have provided very good signal reception and connectivity like Wifi 6, Bluetooth 5.3 with NFC. Also 30-100% charge in just 10 minutes! I don't have to wait for hours to charge like my iphone. Overall it is an interesting phone as it has got 12 gb of ram and also doesn't heat much while playing intensive graphic games. Hmm...considering it is cheaper than iphone 12, I could save a few bucks and go for it as well.
Ultrawide is decent tbh. Most phones provide an 8mp Ultrawide nowadays instead of a 12mp one. As for OIS, maybe next time they will. OIS has never been a part of Reno Series since the early days. Reno's main highlight is its extreme EIS that can even manage the shakiness of a race track.
Was unsure about this phone as its an unknown brand to me and I didn't know whether it would be good enough to keep up with the bigger brands but this video has put my fears to rest. Thanks for this amazing video
Although its a chinese brand, Oppo is a reliable brand. I own the very first version of Reno launched on 2019 (4 years ago) and my phone's battery and performance is still excellent. Don't be afraid to try it.
Like the phone design and pretty much everything bout it.but when did 800(EU price) has become mid range?what did I miss??😱 Nice and pretty detailed review. And coming from mostly apple user without ".. it can't do what my iPhone does.." totally loved it. Not a apple user but knowledge doesn't take space..new sub.
Excellent review. I don't have the phone yet, but as you say, for me it would be the design primarily, but also the chip, wifi performance that I'd buy it for. The camera is disappointing but not a deal-breaker.
I got the Oppo Reno 8 Pro since a week and have tried the camera. Main camera is very good, wide is OK, but macro sucks as it has only a 4 cm fixed focus. About video there is no +- EV exposure/brightness control only in Pro photo mode!? Selfie camera gives sharp but somewhat overexposed images, but once again no +- EV control! This can ofcourse be changed in postedit, but I think this feature is usually a standard on all cameras, so I don´t understand why Oppo doesn´t have implemented it on their video mode!?
Good video. But like most reviewers you completely fail at listing the fov of the front camer??? For example the fov of the pixel 3xl front camera is 97 fov.....come on please list the fov in your reviewz.
Which phones do you list with optical stabilisation and depth sensors, ultra high resolution, ultra wide, macro lenses and with good night shots and video?
My wife and I have just ordered this phone - because their a new brand, you can get seriously cheap tariffs. We got double discount for ordering 2, no upfront cost, and only £23 per month each (105gb data)

@@m_Stan then that Reviewer was blind af💀 It's not wrong that the chipset and sensors this phone is using is flagship grade and given that most places this phone is around 500$ so it is budget phone with flagship but not a flagship killer at all
I wish there was a phone designed for photographers. That is, a phone meant for people who use actual cameras for photography. 90% of mid-range to flagship seem to be putting a major chunk of their design and marketing resources to phone-cameras, which I do not use for anything else other than scanning documents, QR codes etc. I would want a phone where those resources are instead focused on battery life, interfacing easily with cameras from popular brands, powerful editing performance and features.

Hi! Not a real expert, but I have the 6T as well (looking for something new also!). If you are on a 450 budget, may I sugest the Oneplus Nord 2T (256g, 12 gig ram)? It's an upgrade in every way to the 6T, but just not as heavy a upgrade like te Reno 8 Pro or the 10T. Have a nice day! :)
I have this phone but it's horrible.Camera is not good.the camera is terribly slow. And it's even worse when using the flash. Photos of moving objects are almost always out of focus. It literally requires the object to not even move. The photos of my child are unusable. There is absolutely no question of quality for such a large amount of money. I'm going back to Honor, which costs 5,000 CZK less. And that's a heck of a difference.

8 pro

Oneplus 10t because no xiaomi bugs
