How "volume" there is in the mobile phone circle this year, I believe everyone is used to it. It can be said that from the "peak showdown" of high-end flagships to the "bayonet red" of people-friendly models, major brands are riveting their own products to "refuel", just to be able to seize the opportunity in the fierce market competition.

In such a big scuffle, the just-released OPPO Reno12 is undoubtedly a product that should not be overlooked. Considering that almost every generation of Reno can be called a "hit", it is clear that the Reno12 will not be a "mediocre work". This generation of Reno12 is positioned as a "technological trendy product", with its own unique design attributes, and a series of trendy functions for the first time, so what kind of dazzling performance does it have, I believe everyone's expectations are not less than mine, so without further ado, I will take you to take a look.

1. Leading the design trend and deducing the light and thin fashion

As the saying goes, "appearance is combat effectiveness", in the mobile phone circle, a good product design can not only improve the recognition of the product, but also directly affect the user's experience. In terms of appearance, the Reno series has always adhered to the design ideas of "light and thin", "fashionable" and "trendy", and is also actively exploring new processes and seeking innovative breakthroughs in design.

For users who are looking for beauty, the OPPO Reno12 will obviously not disappoint everyone. The OPPO Reno12 brings three new colorways, namely Millennium Silver, Soft Peach, and Ebony Black. The new colorways are all very distinctive, with the main Millennium Silver featuring a futuristic quicksilver glass design that creates a flowing texture on the back cover, paired with a unique silver color that makes you dream back to the millennium overnight.

On the lens module, the orderly line design and the light luxury Paris stud decoration make the module look exquisite, fashionable and full of technology, showing the unique design concept of the Reno12 series.

Turning to the front, it is another major design highlight of Reno12 this time. Reno12This time, it uses a four-curved soft-edged straight screen equipped with a few flagships, taking into account the convenience of the straight screen and the feel of the curved screen. The four-curved soft-edged straight screen shape of the Reno12 series is softer and more natural, and it feels as gentle as a pebble when you get started. Light up the screen, and the display area of the screen is subtly matched to the curved shape of the screen, so that the annoying mistouch, distortion and color shift of the curved screen disappear, creating an extremely immersive visual experience.

In terms of feel, OPPO Reno12 has been further improved compared with the previous generation, with a large 5000mAh battery stuffed in, the body can still maintain a thickness of 7.3mm, and the weight is about 179g, as always, "light and thin", and there is no burden on holding it with one hand. The sides of the fuselage are also curved, and the screen transition of the middle frame back panel is smoother, which looks thinner and lighter, and also fits more closely in the palm of the hand.

In addition to being thin and light, OPPO has not forgotten about durability. Reno12 is equipped with OPPO's diamond architecture, using OPPO's self-developed AM04 rare earth alloy, and the bending resistance of the material is increased by more than 10% compared with the previous generation, making the fuselage doubly strong and strong. The display uses Corning ® Gorilla Glass ® Victus®2, which provides greater protection against drops to rough surfaces and is more scratch resistant. At the same time, the Reno12 has passed the IP65 dustproof and sprayproof certification, which can completely prevent dust from entering, and can ensure that the mobile phone is watertight under low-pressure spraying at any angle, truly achieving all-round protection.

Whether it is in the feel, appearance or screen, OPPO Reno12 has maintained the high standards that have always been there, and at the same time, Reno12 has not forgotten to continue to explore new design concepts and process technologies to meet the ever-increasing needs and preferences of users, so that users can always get a sense of freshness.

2. All-round image experience, leading portrait shooting

The Reno series has always had an excellent performance in terms of imaging, in addition to good hardware specifications, it is also blessed with leading portrait algorithms, so not only daily landscape photos, but also people are also the specialty of the Reno series.

The Reno12 has been further improved in terms of imaging. In terms of portrait shooting, the Reno12 is equipped with a separate 2x DSLR-level portrait camera, which is also the key to the Reno12's ability to shoot good portraits, after all, compared to the main camera crop, the independent portrait lens usually has higher pixels and better image quality, which can provide sharper and more detailed portrait photos.

In addition, the 47mm focal length is very close to the angle of view of the human eye, and the captured image has a good three-dimensional effect, making the characters more prominent. At the same time, you can also adjust the angle to emphasize the silhouette and lines of the figure. In addition, it is also suitable for shooting close-ups of people, and by capturing the demeanor and expression of the characters, it shows the emotional value beyond the quality of the image. In addition to the golden focal length, this portrait lens also has a 32-million-pixel high resolution, which can capture more details and clarity, including the facial features, facial expressions, skin textures, and details of clothing, accessories, and scenes, making the picture richer and more three-dimensional, and making the skin look more natural and textured.

It is worth mentioning that Reno12 not only has outstanding hardware specifications, but also inherits the algorithm of OPPO's imaging flagship Find X7 series in software. Reno12 is equipped with a DSLR-level portrait mode, the background bokeh effect is more natural, especially the transition between the character and the environment is very smooth, like the character's hair, and the cutout of the edge part of the costume is more fine, and there will be no embarrassing situation of "one more piece" and "one missing piece".

In addition to excellent portrait shooting results, the Reno12 is also equipped with a 50 million DSLR-level wide-angle main camera and an 8 million ultra-wide-angle lens, of which the main camera supports OIS optical image stabilization. Overall, the Reno12 is more than adequate for everyday photography, with very high color reproduction and accurate white balance in normal light, as well as a high level of detail captured in high resolution.

When it comes to night shots, the Reno12 also excels. Night mode is capable of handling low-light shots, increasing brightness and reducing noise while maintaining a fairly good color performance. In particular, the addition of OIS stabilization improves the yield of night shots, making it possible to shoot clear and pure samples even in poor lighting conditions.

For those moments in life, a freeze-frame photo may not be enough. In this fast-paced era, every moment deserves to be captured in detail, and freeze-frame photos often struggle to fully convey the atmosphere and emotion of that moment. That's where Live Photos comes in. However, even if Android phones in the past could take live photos, when these precious memories wanted to be shared on social platforms, they could often only appear in the form of still photos, losing the charm of live events. The OPPO Reno12 series solves this problem, not only supporting the perfect playback of live photos locally, but also optimizing the sharing mechanism to ensure that these live photos can still maintain their dynamic nature when uploaded to popular social platforms such as Xiaohongshu, so that more people can feel the vivid touch.

The live image of the Reno12 series can also be viewed by iPhone users after being shared on social media

And compared with other mobile phones with live photo function, the Reno12 series integrates the native AI portrait algorithm in the live photo, based on the detection of 377 face landmark points based on AI large model data, bringing personalized beautification effects based on age, gender, skin tone, and scene to the user's live photos.

Overall, in terms of imaging, with independent 2X portrait lens support, Reno12 brings an excellent portrait shooting experience, and the facial feature-level bokeh algorithm allows novice users to shoot satisfactory portrait masterpieces. At the same time, the Oppo Reno12 is capable of delivering excellent results both day and night. It is undoubtedly an ideal option for those users who like to take pictures.

3. Portable AI assistant, easy and worry-free life

In addition to the portrait flagship, another big label of Reno12 is the AI mobile phone. On Reno12, OPPO has fully upgraded its AI toolbox, the original skills are better to use, and there are more practical new skills.

The original well-received AI erasure and AI cutout have been upgraded, and the AI erasure function has added one-click elimination for passers-by in addition to the two modes of circle selection and smear elimination, which allows you to get pure photos with one click; The AI cutout function can now quickly add the cut-out picture as a sticker, and you can easily complete the group photo P picture and handbook production in the machine.

Don't want to make plans and want to travel more fun? The Reno12 series of small cloth assistants can now be transformed into travel assistants. As long as you say where and when you want to go, Xiaobu Assistant can directly generate a travel plan. Not only that, Xiaobu assistant can also directly recommend local restaurants, attractions and other points of interest, and leave the delicious and fun to Xiaobu.

In addition to being a travel partner, Xiaobu can also be your English teacher, or even an interviewer, and when you talk to Xiaobu, it can transform in an instant.

There is always one with closed eyes in the group photo? Reno12 has its own way, just find the photo in the album, click the AI best portrait button, and the phone can automatically identify the person with closed eyes for intelligent replacement, so that everyone can be on camera.

4 large batteries + long-life version flash charge, long battery life and more durable

Battery life has always been a pain point that users are concerned about, especially in the face of thin and light mobile phones, the pain point has been amplified again. In order to ensure long battery life and fast "blood recovery" needs, OPPO Reno12 is equipped with a 5000mAh battery, and is paired with a long-life version of 80W super flash charging.

The test model is still a classic scenario that simulates the user's daily life habits, with a total duration of 5 hours. During the test, the screen brightness and volume of the OPPO Reno12 were set to 50%, connected to the office Wi-Fi network, and turned off 5G Bluetooth. The final result is as follows:

After five hours of heavy battery life testing, the Oppo Reno12 finally has 53% of the battery remaining, which is still quite impressive, and even less than some models with larger batteries. Of course, this is also related to the excellent power consumption performance and system tuning of the Dimensity 8250 Star Edition, which is one of the few mobile platforms that can take into account both performance and energy efficiency, and ColorOS14 has also been optimized to achieve the purpose of power saving.

In terms of charging, in the charging test, the OPPO Reno12 was charged from 0 to 100%, a total of 44 minutes, and 74% of the charge can be charged in half an hour, which is still acceptable at the current price.

It is worth mentioning that the Reno12 is equipped with a battery health engine, which can delay the loss of battery capacity, and with the longevity version of flash charging, it can still maintain 80% of the battery capacity after four years of use, far exceeding the industry standard.

With the blessing of the 5-Dimensity flagship core, the game is smooth every day

Fluency is a cliché when it comes to 2K products. After all, a mobile phone should be used for many years, and the performance of long-term use is not outdated, and it is the basic demand of most users to use it for a long time.

First of all, in terms of performance, OPPO Reno12 is equipped with MediaTek Dimensity 8250 Star Speed Edition + LPDDR5X RAM + UFS3.1 flash memory "Performance Iron Triangle" combination, Dimensity 8250 Star Speed Edition compared with Dimensity 8200, the biggest upgrade point is the new Star Speed Engine, Star Speed Engine Technology can be connected to system monitoring, network quality monitoring system and other key technologies, so that the game screen is more realistic, smooth, touch and network response speed is faster, and the battery life is longer.

So based on such a combination, coupled with the tuning of ColorOS 14, how does Reno12 perform?

In terms of benchmark benchmark testing, the OPPO Reno12 scored 1031613 overall score in the Antutu V10 version test, and also achieved a score of 1788 in the 3DMark Wild Extreme test, which reflects the performance of the GPU, which is in line with expectations.

In terms of "Honor of Kings", this is also one of the games that Reno12 focuses on optimizing this time, in the extreme image quality (120 frames) mode, the average frame rate of 30 minutes reaches 119.3 frames, and the experience is still smooth and smooth.

The smoothness of Reno12 is not only reflected in the game, but also in terms of system experience, Reno12 is also well optimized. Reno12 is equipped with ColorOS 14.1 for the first time, and the new supercomputing platform has been upgraded for application startup and memory mechanisms. For example, for storage garbage, Reno12 is equipped with a "black technology" of memory lossless compression technology, which can deduplicate duplicate files, restrict automatic file compression, and retain more storage space after long-term use. According to official data, on the 512GB Reno12, users can save up to 45GB of storage.

6 Write at the end

Overall, the OPPO Reno12 is a good product with no shortcomings. The super beautiful small straight screen comparable to the iPhone takes into account the feel of the curved screen and the operation of the straight screen, and the color scheme full of Y2K flavor is also in line with the current fashion trend. The rare 2X portrait lens and dynamic photos that can be shared on social networks are even more exciting. The blessing of many AI functions has promoted Reno12 from an ordinary mobile phone to your all-round assistant, which not only has a beautiful face, but also super strength.

At the same time, the OPPO Reno12 also integrates innovative design, Dimensity 8250 Star Speed Edition, ColorOS14.1, Longevity Edition 80W Super Flash Charging and other eye-catching configurations. I believe that with a good experience of fashion, thinness, smoothness and durability, OPPO Reno12 can gain everyone's expectations and recognition.
