Oppo is back with another entry in the
Reno lineup and this time it’s the OPPO
Reno 14 series. Today’s full focus is on
the OPPO Reno 14 Pro 5G. Hey guys, CJ
here and if you’re wondering what
upgrades you’re getting, how it handles,
or if this should be your next daily
driver, stick around. We’re going to
break everything down in this full
review.
Right off the bat, the Oppo Reno 14 Pro
5G feels like it belongs in the premium
class. It has this clean and modern
aesthetic that isn’t too flashy, but you
can definitely tell it’s built with
quality materials. The back comes in two
finishes, titanium gray, which gives off
a more industrial and subtle look, and
Opal White, which is the flashier of the
two with a velvet-like iridescent effect
that shifts color depending on the
angle. As you can tell, our unit here is
the titanium gray colorway. The whole
device feels sturdy, and that’s not
surprising considering OPPO use their
Crystal Shield Glass, which is a type of
Gorilla Glass 7i protection on the
front. It’s one of their most durable
panels yet, and it should handle daily
wear and tear much better than your
average glass panel. It’s also got a
triple IP rating, IP66, IP68, and IP69
to be exact, which is something you
rarely see in a smartphone. That means
it’s protected against dust, submersion
in water, and even high pressure water
jets. Button and port placements are
standard with a clean layout. On the
right side, you have your power and
volume controls, while the bottom holds
the USB type-C port, SIM card tray, and
one of the two stereo speakers. The top
holds the other speaker and microphone.
Overall, Oppo nails the design here with
its premium and durable build without
going overboard with it. Going to the
front, the Oppo Reno 14 Pro 5G comes
with a large 6.83 83 in OLED display
that gives you plenty of detail and
clarity without draining the battery too
much. Colors are rich, contrast is deep
thanks to OLED tech, and it looks
excellent whether you’re browsing,
watching videos, or gaming. What makes
it even better is the 120 Hz adaptive
refresh rate, which adjusts between 60,
90, and 120 Hz depending on what you’re
doing. This helps conserve battery when
you don’t need the extra frames while
keeping things real smooth when you do.
As for protection, like we mentioned
earlier, you’re getting Gorilla Glass
7i, which should keep your mind at ease
if you’re prone to the occasional drop.
Watching content on this display is an
enjoyable experience. The stereo
speakers also help with that, providing
a full and immersive sound profile.
Audio gets loud enough to fill a room
and stays fairly balanced with great
clarity and decent bass. However, when
at max volume, the sound tends to get a
bit distorted. Biometrics are handled
through an indisplay fingerprint sensor,
and it’s fast and accurate. There’s also
face unlock which works well in most
lighting conditions. If you followed
OPPO’s past releases, you’d know that
they don’t shy away from packing capable
cameras and that continues here. With
the OPO 14 Pro 5G, you’re getting a
triple rear camera setup. The main
camera is a wide 1.8 aperture along with
optical image stabilization which helps
with sharper shots and steady video. The
second sensor is an ultrawide that’s
great for landscape and group shots.
while the third is a periscope telephoto
camera with 3.5 times optical zoom. This
gives you a lot of flexibility whether
you’re shooting wide, up close, or
zoomed in. Up front, there’s another 50
megapixel sensor with autofocus. In
well-lit scenes, images come out crisp
and colorful with good dynamic range.
Skin tones look natural and detail
remains sharp for the most part. The
ultra wide lens capture a wide field of
view without too much distortion either.
When zooming in though, some shots tend
to be on the softest side, but that’s
just us pixel peeping. Shooting in poor
lighting though can be a challenge for
this camera. The AI tends to struggle
with accurately focusing on the subject
and keep details in. Because of this,
some photos don’t come out as crisp or
detailed as they would with proper
lighting. Video recording surprisingly
good, being able to capture up to 4K at
60 frames per second for both the rear
and the front. But hey, you can judge it
yourself though with our sample shots
here. This is the Opporino 14 Pro 5G
shooting at 4K at 60 frames per second.
So this is what it looks like up
one more time.
And then
we go
this side.
Here are
the colors.
Here’s the details.
So, what do you guys think? Let us know
in the comments below. Under the hood,
the Reno 14 Pro is powered by the
MediaTek Dimensity 8,450 chipset. Our
unit comes with 12 GB of RAM and 512 GB
of storage for daily tasks like
messaging, browsing, and social media.
Performance is smooth and efficient, and
you won’t feel any lag even if you’re
multitasking heavily. When it comes to
gaming, casual titles like Umamus and
Pokemon Unite run well on high settings
without any noticeable stutters, and the
phone handles them effortlessly. Graphic
heavy titles like Persona 5, The Phantom
X, Withering Waves, and Zenless Zero do
push the phone a bit harder. There is a
bit of lag at first, especially during
intense combat, and graphically
demanding animations. However, thanks to
Oppo’s Hyperboost system, things settle
down after a short while. You probably
won’t be running these heavier titles at
max settings without some compromises,
but with hyperboost on, they’re
definitely still enjoyable. The thermals
handled well enough as I haven’t
experienced intense overheating with the
device. Here are our benchmark scores if
you need better context, though.
The Reno 14 Pro 5G runs on Color OS 15
based on Android 15. It’s a clean and
modern UI with plenty of room for
customization. You’ll find options for
themes, icon packs, and even
transitions. So, if you like to tweak
your phone’s look, you’ll enjoy this
one. One grip that I have is that there
is a lot of bloatware right out of the
box. They come in folders which you can
delete and uninstall, but they are an
eyes sore the first time you boot the
phone up. Navigation is smooth and the
high refresh rate display helps keep
everything feel responsive. The system
animations are polished and even gesture
controls feel natural and fluid. The app
draw notification shade are easy to use
and the multitasking interface lets you
open apps in split screen or floating
windows. There are some notable features
here like AI editor 2.0, AI flash
photography and AI live photo baked into
the camera app. The Opera 14 Pro 5G
checks all the right boxes in the
connectivity department. It supports 5G,
Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.4, GPS, NFC, and
USB type-C. You also get an IR blaster
right here. There’s also support for
dual nano SIMs. Whether you’re
transferring files, gaming online, or
just hopping between networks, you’ll
find the experience stable and reliable.
As for battery, you’re getting a large
6,200 mAh unit, which is more than
enough to last a full day. In fact, in
our PC Mark battery test, the Operino 14
Pro scored 11 hours and 32 minutes,
which is a solid result considering the
high refresh rate and OLED screen. That
number should translate to real life
world use involving snapping some pics,
gaming, and social media browsing
without worrying about running to the
charger by midday. And when it does need
a recharge, Oppo includes 80 watt superv
charging along with 50W Airvuk wireless
charging here. From a power management
perspective, the Reno Fighting Pro 5G is
efficient, makes it a great choice for
power users or anyone who’s always on
the go. At the time of making this
video, we still don’t have the official
Philippine price for the Operino 14 Pro.
But if we go by the spec sheet alone,
it’s clearly positioned as a premium
mid-ranger or upper flagship tier
device. You’re getting strong
durability, a great display, triple 50
megapixel cameras, and a decent gaming
experience. On paper, it looks like Oppo
checked off a good chunk of the
important boxes here. If you’re someone
who wants a reliable everyday phone with
good battery life, solid cameras, enough
power for casual to moderately heavy
gaming, this one might be the one to
consider. But what do you think of the
Oberino Pro 5G? Are you planning on
