Introduction
As a pioneer in the 5G era, OPPO released the OPPO Reno3 series of dual-mode 5G mobile phones in Hangzhou on December 26 . Among them, the imaging capabilities of OPPO Reno3 Pro have attracted the attention of many users. Today, when mobile phone innovation is increasingly lacking, what kind of highlights does OPPO Reno3 Pro bring us? Without further ado, let’s take a look!
As short videos gradually become one of everyone's daily entertainment methods, the arrival of the 5G era has accelerated the rise of video phones. With the popularity of mobile phone video shooting, users' video demand continues to grow, and the pain points of mobile phone video shooting have become increasingly prominent. Solving the problem of stable and clear image quality in video shooting has become a top priority.
OPPO Reno3 Pro has four rear cameras, supports up to 4K video shooting, and has been upgraded to "super dual anti-shake" based on the super anti-shake of OPPO Reno2. In order to have a clearer understanding of the anti-shake capabilities of OPPO Reno3 Pro, we conducted a speedboat shooting experience and used OPPO Reno3 Pro's non-anti-shake mode, video super anti-shake mode and super anti-shake Pro mode for comparison. See the specific effects. Video below.
1. Preface and picture appreciation
This year, we saw a different OPPO, the R series that has been selling well for many years. Renault will take over the next decade and start OPPO mobile phones.
It may be that the new product line has just been launched and the user acceptance is not high. Reno has not yet shown the glory of the R series, but it is not difficult to see its huge potential, such as the Reno 10x zoom version of the camera, the video anti-shake of Reno 2, and the 5G of Reno3 Pro. It can be said that OPPO’s positive attitude towards embracing new technologies this year is unprecedented.
However, the Reno series still retains the responsibilities of OPPO founder Chen Mingyong. Among these three generations of mobile phones, there are indeed new technologies, but they have a common feature, that is, the configuration and appearance are not too radical (except for Find), and they insist on being highlights in the mainstream, just like Reno3 Pro.
Judging from the timeline, OPPO Reno3 Pro is the last 5G mobile phone released in China in 2019, focusing on a slim body and video image stabilization. At the same time, the Snapdragon 765G is launched, starting at 3,999 yuan.
OPPO Reno3 Pro is available in four colors: Sunrise Impression, Blue Starry Night, Moon Night Black, and Fog Moon Night White. The one we have is Blue Starry Night.
OPPO Reno3 Pro uses a curved AMOLED hole-in-the-wall screen made of E3 luminescent material and supports a 90Hz refresh rate. Its screen curvature is 55.9 degrees, which is closer to the curvature of the Samsung S10 and not as exaggerated as the nearly 90-degree waterfall screen. Its advantage is that it shrinks the left and right borders and reduces accidental touches by the palm of the hand. In actual use, accidental touches on the curved surface can basically be ignored, but the visual impact is not as strong as the waterfall screen.
The high refresh rate first appeared on OnePlus mobile phones. The relationship between OPPO and OnePlus will naturally use a 90Hz refresh rate. In daily chats about scrolling through Weibo on WeChat, we can fully feel that a high refresh rate can bring a silky and smooth experience.
As for the design of the digging screen, it should be the consensus of mobile phone manufacturers. The recently launched new 5G phones all adopt a digging design. Next year, mobile phone screens seem to start competing in the direction of narrowing the aperture. For example, the aperture of Reno3 Pro is only 3.92 mm.
When 5G first started, many 5G mobile phones liked to add the 5G logo on the back of the fuselage, but OPPO did not add it to ensure the beauty of the fuselage.
The back of OPPO Reno3 Pro has changed a lot compared to the previous two generations. The rear lens is no longer aligned vertically, but is turned to the left. Such a design helps reduce the sense of visual separation. At the same time, it uses curved glass material and ultra-thin photosensitive screen fingerprint + organic light-emitting diode flexible screen, making its thickness only 7.7mm, forming an ultra-thin body look and feel.
Good appearance is an old tradition of OPPO, and the appearance of Reno3 Pro still maintains a high level. I won’t talk about this anymore. According to the official introduction, the machine adopts a natural transition from warm to cool colors. The back is superimposed by three layers of nano-film, two layers of orange nano-film + AG process condensation layer, with a slight metallic texture.
2. System and features
OPPO Reno3 Pro runs ColorOS 7 based on Android 10.0. After the 7 version update, ColorOS has a completely new look, and the design style and interaction methods have been completely changed. This time, OPPO deserves a thumbs up. Even compared with the mature MIUI 11 and EMUI 10, ColorOS 7 can give its own unique style, which is better than the blue one.
1. Main interface and negative screen
ColorOS 7 icons support custom shapes and sizes, and the overall color system is changed to a mild color system to alleviate visual fatigue. Each icon is neat and unobtrusive, and the font has been changed to OPPO Sans. The visual center of gravity is improved, the middle palace is natural and comfortable, the structure is stable, and it can be used freely.
2. System interaction
The gestures of ColorOS 7 are basically the same as those of the previous generation, except that the switch of the gesture indicator bar is added. At the same time, there are fewer upward swipe gesture options than ColorOS 6. Unfortunately, Reno3 Pro does not use linear motors and the vibration is not good.
In the era of full-screen mobile phones, the previous three native Android keys have gradually become history. Sliding left and right to back is obviously more suitable for the usage habits of full-screen mobile phones.
3.Screen display
ColorOS 7 gives users more display options and strives to achieve each user's visual perception, such as adding dark mode, more information screen clocks, etc. , and the display and font size can also be adjusted. The official also announced that a theme editor will be released, allowing users to modify fonts and icons to increase playability.
4. Breeno voice assistant
ColorOS 7 brings a new Breeno voice assistant, whose voice is softer and more humane, but its functions have not changed much. Compared with the previous generation, Breeno sleep and Breeno automatic instructions are added.
Despite this, Breeno's playability and practicality are still far behind Xiaomi Xiao Ai's classmates, and further optimization and improvement are needed in this regard.
In addition to added functions, officials also stated that ColorOS 7 has a new built-in UI First that supports oComp client-cloud intelligent compilation. Through oMem intelligent memory optimization and oSense processor active scheduling, application startup speed and system resource utilization efficiency are improved. System fluency is increased by 30%, game frame rate is higher, and touch response is faster.
Third, the camera takes pictures
OPPO Reno3 Pro has four rear cameras, with parameters of 48 million pixels main camera + 13 million pixels telephoto + 8 million pixels ultra-wide angle + 2 million pixels black and white lens. The main camera is a Sony IMX 586 sensor, and the telephoto lens supports 2x optical Zoom, 5x hybrid zoom and 20x digital zoom.
Why does the main camera of Reno3 use 64 million pixels and the main camera of Reno3 Pro uses 48 million pixels? OPPO product manager Chen Ruxuan once responded that images are a combination of software and hardware, and the algorithms and hardware we use in Reno3 Pro are relatively mature. And from the overall feeling, IMX586 can give us a thinner and lighter experience on this basis.
Since the official said this, we will no longer discuss the camera lens and directly look at its photo performance.
1. Video stabilization
Reno3 Pro continues the highlight of the previous generation, which is super anti-shake for videos, and also adds super anti-shake Pro mode. In order to further highlight the anti-shake effect, we compared it with another 48-megapixel mobile phone, which also turned on anti-shake. Due to video limitations, the "link" can be clicked here to jump to view the anti-shake video comparison (due to uploading and composition, the image quality captured by the mobile phone is affected, mainly for anti-shake viewing, so the image quality has little impact).
2. Daytime proofing
As can be seen from the daytime sample photos, OPPO Reno3 Pro's camera performance is remarkable. The wide-angle algorithm is good, there is no barrel distortion, and there is no deviation in focus during macro. The overall level is normal.
But no matter how optimized it is, 48 million pixels are still not as good as 64 million pixels in detail amplification. For example, in the last building, 64 million pixels can easily show more details than 48 million pixels.
3. Night proofing
RenoPro turns on the camera and automatically turns on AI mode. If it is in a dark environment, the night scene algorithm imaging will be automatically turned on, so we manually turned off the AI mode during the test and then compared it with the night scene mode.
Like most mobile phones, RenoPro's night scene algorithm prefers highlight suppression to improve dark details, but it will make the sky look noisy and not pure enough. Because we have not found a better night scene algorithm in other models of the same price range, its performance is actually at the mainstream level.
Fourth, performance and 5G speed measurements
Not only the camera, but also the core configuration of OPPO Reno3 Pro has raised questions. Reno3 Pro uses MediaTek Dimensity 1000L, while Reno3 Pro uses Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G. The performance of the former is higher than that of the latter.
In this regard, Chen Ruxuan said that not only chips, but also other multi-component components OPPO is not just a supplier. We hope to bring better things to everyone in the industry. OPPO Reno3 Pro is Pro in many aspects such as improved heat dissipation, improved technology, and improved experience. Get the phone and try it for a week, and you will come to a conclusion. Reno3 Pro is not only Pro in name, but also in experience.
Of course, this does not mean that Snapdragon 765G is bad. On the contrary, it may become an SoC that will be equipped with many mobile phones next year. Snapdragon 765G uses 7nm EUV process, built-in eight-core Kryo 475 CPU, 1+1+6 triple cluster architecture, including a 2.4GHz ultra-large core, a 2.2GHz performance core, and six 1.8GHz efficiency cores, a new flagship.
Judging from the paper parameters, the Snapdragon 765G is the biggest upgrade since the release of the Snapdragon 7 series, with GPU performance significantly increased by 40% and AI computing power increased by 100%. The old rule is to run a score first.
1. AnTuTu review
According to actual tests, OPPO Reno3 Pro’s AnTuTu score is 322743, of which the MEM storage score is 67868, which is higher than the general UFS 2.1 model. The main reason is that RenoPro is supposed to use dual-channel UFS 2.1 and it also uses the F2FS file system, which theoretically allows for faster file transfer rates.
In addition, it can be seen from the mobile phones that have been launched that the GPU performance of Snapdragon 765G is higher than that of Exynos 980, so it seems that the GPU performance has been greatly improved by 40%.
2. Game testing
OPPO mobile phones are well optimized for mainstream games, such as Honor of Kings (60 frames) and Peace Elite (30 frames). They can run full-frame effects without causing lag for an hour, mainly due to their built-in cooling configuration.
3. 5G network speed test
It should be mentioned first that Tutu has not upgraded the 5G package, so there will be speed limits in the 5G network environment, and the 5G network area is unstable, so the network speed is for reference only.
According to AnTuTu's network speed measurement, the download speed of Reno3 Pro is 60.5Mbps and the upload speed is 54.4Mbps. It should also be noted that OPPO Reno3 Pro does not have a built-in 5G switch. If you want to know if you are connected to the 5G network, you have to look in the status bar.
Verb (abbreviation of verb) charge and battery life
OPPO Reno3 Pro has a built-in 4025mAh battery and the body weight is controlled at 171g, which is very rare among current 5G mobile phones and deserves praise.
1. Online video power consumption test
2. Game power consumption test
3. Charging test
OPPO Reno3 Pro is equipped with VOOC flash charging 4.0, with a peak power of up to 30W. We used the original charger for testing and recorded every 10 minutes.
According to actual tests, it takes 55 minutes for Reno3 Pro to reach 5% to 100%, of which 10 minutes charge 27% and 30 minutes charge 71%.
Summary of intransitive verbs
If the price-performance ratio is not considered, OPPO Reno3 Pro can be said to be very exquisite. Yes, why use the word exquisite? Because the Reno3 Pro is indeed very good-looking, coupled with the 7.7mm thickness and 171g body weight, it feels very solid in the hand and is even lighter than some 4G mobile phones.
In terms of experience, if you are not pursuing a full-blooded configuration, the Snapdragon 765G + dual-channel UFS 2.1 is no problem for daily use, and mainstream games can run smoothly. VOOC Flash Charge 4.0 can charge more than 70% in 30 minutes. It's a pity that there is no linear motor blessing. Of course, the biggest highlight of this phone is the camera. The rear four-camera imaging is well adjusted, especially the video anti-shake effect, which is definitely in the first echelon among domestic mobile phones.
It can be seen from this phone that in the era of the explosion of 5G mobile phones, the OPPO Reno series does not pursue performance. Just like in the 3/4G era, the Reno series chose video recording this time.
The first sentence of summary, we say that OPPO Reno3 Pro is not a cost-effective mobile phone. After all, it starts at 3,999 yuan, and it is not the cheapest 5G phone, nor is it the most powerful 5G phone. However, OPPO is more restrained in the areas it is good at, which is good looks + cameras + fast charging. It can be said that this mobile phone is not cost-effective, with high price and low configuration. However, we have to admit that OPPO has indeed solved the pain points of some people using mobile phones. From charging for five minutes and talking for two hours to charging for five minutes and talking for two hours today (ACE), it has indeed continuously solved the pain points of users. This may be one of the reasons why many users still choose OPPO, and it is also the reason why OPPO is still the domestic mobile phone giant. important reason.
