Oppo Reno 8T Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

Oppo Reno 8T 4G - a bestseller without frills?

Smartphones at the turn of the low and medium price segments are among the most popular on the modern market. Technological progress has made it possible even in such affordable phones to combine a rather attractive design, good technical characteristics and decent autonomy. And even if the hero of today's review does not revolutionize the value category and does not bring something new to the functionality of inexpensive mobile devices, he will definitely be able to find his buyer.

The well-designed appearance of the novelty is one of the reasons for its acquisition. The obvious disadvantages of the exterior are only the wide bottom frame of the screen and glossy plastic, which does not resist scratches and chips. The bright colors of the cases, the excellent triple camera unit and the under-screen fingerprint scanner distinguish the gadget against the background of monotonous opponents. The 6.67-inch AMOLED display outperforms IPS-analogues in terms of brightness, while not losing face in terms of image clarity (resolution of 2412x1080 pixels), its smoothness (120 Hz refresh rate).

The CPU designer's choice is easy to explain. The MediaTek Helio G99 processor is a highly demanded chipset, together with 8GB of RAM and a Mali G57MC2 video adapter, provides a responsive Android 13 OS interface, instantly launching most applications. The playability isn't flagship, but it doesn't disappoint either. You will be able to play even the most resource-intensive games, but you should prepare for minimal graphic presets and minor, but still frequent jamming. Finding fault with the 4800mAh battery is not easy, because the battery provides a stable one and a half days of functioning of the phablet. A 33W fast charge allows you to get full capacity in about an hour. The size of the internal storage is not limited to only 128/256GB, there is a slot for microSD cards for expansion.

The main cameras consist of both frankly useless 2-megapixel auxiliary modules, and a solid 108-megapixel sensor from Samsung. Daytime photography capabilities are much wider than the basic ones, it is easy to capture even moving objects with good detail. In the evening, the photos are somewhat worse due to noise, the appearance of blurry details, but it is still possible to make a good shot with several takes. There is stereo sound in the device, NFC contactless payments (not in all regional versions). As a result, the device turned out to be devoid of any significant shortcomings for the requested price tag and is ready to impose competition on the leaders.
