OPPO Reno series, which is updated every six months, has finally been updated again. This time it is the Reno 9 series, which continues to be divided into three models, Reno 9, Reno 9 Pro and Reno 9 Pro+.
Although they are all in the same series, the starting price range of the three models is quite large. Looking at the selected processor, we can actually see the different positioning of the three models of the same series. Reno 9 uses the mid-range Snapdragon 778G processor, Reno 9 Pro has come to the light flagship Dimensity 8100-MAX, and this Reno 9 Pro+ in hand has already topped the list. Arrived on the Snapdragon 8+ processor.
Yes, this is the first mobile phone of the OPPO brand to use the Snapdragon 8+. In theory, it will be the best performance of the OPPO brand so far. The LPDDR5 storage of the entire series has also been upgraded to 16GB, with 256GB and 512GB. The UFS 3.1 flash memory version is optional, and the Find X5 Pro at the beginning of the year also cast envious eyes.
Although the Snapdragon 8+ is not a new processor, as the first Snapdragon 8+ of the OPPO brand, it is still necessary to have a more intuitive understanding of the performance of OPPO’s Snapdragon 8+.
Design
Design is the biggest selling point of the Reno series, and this time is no exception. However, the appearance of Reno 9 Pro+ can be said to be evolving in the continuation. It is still the similar camera hill design of the Reno8 series, but the improvement has become a metal design. Visually, it continues from the frame of the phone to this module, like a piece of armor-but to be honest, this design seems familiar.
This gold is actually quite special, it is not rough gold, it will show a faint grayish yellow under cold light, and its real golden side will be released under warm light, but it can’t be low-key. What’s interesting is the vision of the back cover The texture is frosted, it looks a little bit of starlight, like a shining window screen; but it has a completely different texture when you touch it with your hands, it is the smooth feeling of ordinary glass, which has a sensory dislocation It feels interesting.
Display
its front is a 6.7-inch OLED panel from Tianma. The sub-pixels captured by the microscopic camera are arranged as follows, which is Tianma’s windmill arrangement, which is a kind of diamond-like arrangement. In terms of brightness, our laboratory measured that the manual maximum brightness can reach 523.66 nits, and the external strong light excitation can reach 876.81 nits – once again lamenting the progress of this year’s screen.
OPPO has equipped it with two display modes, one is the default “Vivid” and the other is “Natural”; we measured 102.03% of the P3 color gamut volume coverage in the “Vivid” mode, which is basically close to the standard P3 color space standard , and the average ΔE2000 value of 124 colors reflecting the color accuracy is 4.66, indicating that the color accuracy of the corresponding P3 color gamut standard in this color mode is not bad.
In the “Natural” mode, it is measured that this screen has 108.21% of the sRGB standard color gamut volume coverage, and the degree of fitting with the standard color space is not high, and the color accuracy of ΔE is 3.21. It is above average, but I personally think that OPPO can actually adjust this screen better, and I hope to see further optimization of this screen in future updates.
Camera
The camera system on the back of the OPPO Reno 9 Pro+ is actually not complicated, with a 50MP wide-angle main camera, an 8MP ultra-wide-angle end, and a 2MPl macro lens. Among them, the 50MP wide-angle main camera uses Sony’s 1/1.56-inch IMX890 sensor, with the Mariana X chip as the NPU assistance for computational photography.
I think the rear camera of OPPO Reno 9 Pro+ has made great progress this time. In the actual dark light environment, the restoration of details is still in place, especially for some high light ratio pictures, the details of light and shade are well guaranteed, but the taste of rendering is a little bit It’s a bit heavier, it would be better if OPPO can slightly converge the color of multi-frame synthesis.
Battery
OPPO has equipped Reno 9 Pro+ with a 4700mAh capacity battery, which is matched with 80W fast charging. The official said that a complete charge takes 31 minutes, but we actually measured 10 minutes at 1% power. 44%, it takes exactly half an hour to fully charge, which is basically consistent with the official claim.
After running a full round of 5-hour battery life test under full charge, the final remaining power is 60%, which is a pretty good result for the 4700mAh Snapdragon 8+ flagship and the highest temperature recorded during the process is 40.2 ℃, it is still calm.
Conclusion
OPPO has made a lot of moves recently. After the upgrade of the A series, the next opportunity to upgrade the flagship is reserved for the Reno series. Reno9 Pro+ has become the most sincere super-large cup of the recent generations of the Reno series in my mind, while retaining the original Reno series. Aesthetics, and the return of thin and light design.
It is expected to launch very soon globally and in India too. All are excited about the price of this amazing smartphone. This is the best flagship device that I seen in the recent times.
