A TEST REPORT from Fabian Menzel

We tested here a few months ago TechnikNews and the Reno4 from Oppo and the cheaper one at the beginning of February Reno4Z 5G. A device of this series, namely the Oppo Reno4 Pro 5G is still missing and that's exactly what we want to take a closer look at in this article.
It is the best and also the most expensive model in the Reno4 series. Among other things, buyers are offered a 48 megapixel triple camera, a 90 Hertz OLED display with FHD + resolution and stereo speakers. You will soon find out whether all of this justifies the high RRP of 799 euros in my detailed test report here TechnikNews. In this article I first unpack the smartphone and report on my first impressions after a few days of use.

Oppo Reno4 Pro 5G: unboxing
From the outside, the sales box looks pretty valuable when attacked and also looks very good. On the front is the Proproduct name of the smartphone, a reference to 5G and the storage option. The device is only available in a version with 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of flash memory. The actual box is still wrapped, but can be freed quite easily (image 2). Once you have removed the lid, the first thing you see is a small box containing the usual paperwork, a SIM needle for the dual SIM slot and a transparent silicone case to protect the smartphone. Directly below you will find the Oppo Reno4 next to it Pro itself, also USB-C headphones, a 65 watt power supply and the associated charging cable. So the scope of delivery is really impressive and I am extremely happy to turn off the fast charging power supplyprobeer

Oppo Reno4 Pro 5G in the first impression
My first impression of the Oppo Reno4 Pro 5G turns out to be quite positive. The smartphone feels very high-quality, looks chic and, despite the huge 6,5-inch display, can still be used with one hand. The pleasant weight of only 172 grams also contributes to this. So far I like the already mentioned display quite well. Individual pixels cannot be seen in everyday life due to the FHD+ resolution, the colors appear strong, as is typical for OLEDs, but are sufficiently realistic, and the smooth 90 Hertz refresh rate rounds the whole thing off perfectly. Only a Snapdragon 765G from Qualcomm works under the hood, but the performance is still very convincing from the first impression.
What I don't like so far, however, is the built-in vibration motor, which feels extremely cheap and, in my opinion, has nothing to do with a 799 euro smartphone. That devalues this otherwise high quality and beautiful device. The cheaper one Google Pixel 4a 5G, OnePlus 8T and even that Little X3 NFC make a much better impression here.
I can't say much about the battery life and camera yet, because I'll have to take a much closer look at them in the next few days. I am now looking forward to the next few days and weeks with the Reno4 Pro and then soon my detailed test report will follow here TechnikNews.
