Oppo announced three new additions to its Reno smartphone series, the Oppo Reno 6, Reno 6 Pro, and Reno 6 Pro+. All three ships with 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 charging, each carries a different processor.
The Oppo Reno 6 and Reno 6 Pro uses Dimensity chipset from MediaTek, essentially Dimensity 900 and Dimensity 1200 respectively. Similarly, the Oppo Reno 6 Pro+ is powered by SD 870 5G from Qualcomm.
Oppo Reno 6
The Oppo Reno 6 comes with a 6.43-inch AMOLED display with 2400 x 1080 pixels resolution, 90Hz refresh rate, 750 nits peak brightness, and a 20:9 aspect ratio underneath a Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection.
Running on ColorOS 11.3 atop Android 11, it is powered by MediaTek Dimensity 900 5G chipset based on 6nm fabrication coupled with 8GB/12GB RAM and 128GB/256GB UFS 2.1 onboard storage though lacks any storage expansion option. A Mali-G78 MC4 GPU takes care of the graphics.
As for optics, it flaunts a triple camera setup at the back that includes an f/1.7 64MP wide, an f/2.2 8MP ultrawide, and an f/2.4 2MP macro sensor whilst a single f/2.4 32MP wide shooter at the front for selfies. The rear module is capable of recording 4K videos at 30fps and 1080p videos at 30/60fps while the front camera is constrained to 1080p recording at 30fps.
The connectivity options include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.2, GPS, USB Type-C 3.1 with USB On-The-Go though you will miss a 3.5mm jack. There’s an in-display optical fingerprint scanner as well.
The Oppo Reno 6 carries a non-removable Li-Po 4,300mAh battery with 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 charging keeping the lights on.
Available in Black, Blue, and Aurora colors, the smartphone starts at a price of CNY 2799 (around NPR 51,000 in Nepal) for 8GB/128GB and CNY 3199 (~ NPR 59,000) for 12GB/256GB memory config with sales kicking off as of 11 June in China.
Oppo Reno 6 Pro
This one boasts a slightly bigger 6.55-inch AMOLED panel with 2400 x 1080 pixels resolution, 90Hz refresh rate, HDR 10+, 800 nits peak brightness, and a 20:9 ratio lying underneath a Corning Gorilla Glass 5 layer.
Although the phone ships with a similar operating system as well as memory configuration, it resorts to a different CPU and a GPU unit — 6nm based Dimensity 1200 and Mali-G77 MC9 respectively. The onboard storage, however, uses a newer UFS 3.1 protocol.
The Reno 6 Pro carries an additional depth sensor at the rear side with support for gyro-EIS and HDR. All the other camera specifications including the selfie camera are similar to the vanilla variant.
The connectivity options also remain identical with a difference in a GPS feature — it drops QZSS. Of course, the sensors are similar as well.
As for the battery, it has a 4,500mAh cell with 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 fast charging support.
Available in Black, Blue, and Aurora colors, the Oppo Reno 6 Pro goes for a starting price of CNY 3499 (around NPR 74,000 in Nepal) for 8GB/128GB and CNY 3799 (~ NPR 70,000) for 12GB/256GB memory config with sales kicking off as of 5 June.
Oppo Reno 6 Pro+
The Oppo Reno 6 Pro+ shares a majority of its specifications with the regular Pro model. The differences are not just akin to CPU, GPU, and camera but brightness too. It supports 1100 nits of peak brightness.
The Pro+ variant is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 870 5G SoC based on a 7nm process and leverages Adreno 650 GPU for graphical processing.
Coming to the main difference, which is its cameras. At the back lies a quad-camera setup — an f/1.8 50MP wide with omnidirectional PDAF and OIS, an f/2.4 13MP telephoto with 2x optical zoom, and PDAF, an f/2.2 16MP ultrawide, and an f/2.4 macro sensor. Similarly, at the front lies a single f/2.4 32MP lens with panorama for selfies.
All the other specs except for the colors are similar to Reno 6 Pro.
Available in Gray and Blue colors, the Oppo Reno 6 Pro+ retails at CNY 3999 (around NPR 73,000 in Nepal) for 8GB/128GB and CNY 4499 (~ NPR 82,000) for 12GB/256GB memory variant with sales starting on 5 June.
