OPPO Reno5 A is the latest model of OPPO's middle class series and is the successor to OPPO Reno3 A.The characteristic that it is affordable, but has the performance that can be used in the main, has evolved, while inheriting the improvement of camera performance and 5G compatible.
The display is 6.The resolution is 2400x1080 with a 5 -inch TFT liquid crystal.I think there is a preference, but the feeling I have in my hand is slightly larger.However, since it is a flat display, there is no finger on the edge of the display and does not malfunction.If anything, it is a size that is easy to grasp.The bezel under the display is a little thick, but this is a price.
A power button is placed on the right side and a volume on the left side.The SIM slot is also on the left side.The SIM -free version is a dual SIM specification of two nanosims, and one side is an exclusive specification with microSD (up to 1TB).It is also supported separately for ESIM.
The fingerprint sensor is mounted on the back.It is in a position where you can touch with one hand.It also supports Osaifu -Keitai, and the FeliCa antenna (touch point) is located at the top of the main unit.In this place, using smartphone rings and smartphone grips such as Moft will not interfere with Osaifu -Keitai.It is not compatible with wireless charging.
USB-C port and 3 on the bottom.It has a 5mm jack.
The resolution is high and it is possible to shoot out and in the same simultaneous shooting.
The camera performance is a big appeal point in this Reno5 A.The composition is as follows.
To be honest, recent smartphones have improved the sensor performance used, and I feel that they are less dissatisfied with photos without a good entry model.For this reason, the impression is that the number of terminals that appeals the number of pixels and the number of cameras to be mounted is increasing.
However, in the case of Reno5 A, in addition to them, we can add software ingenuity.One of them is ultra -high resolution mode.Normally, the shooting size with the main camera is 4624 x 3468, but if you use the ultra -high resolution mode, you can shoot for 18 billion pixels (12032 x 9024).Ultra -high -definition photos and super -resolution algorithms achieve resolution beyond sensor size.
In the article, it is difficult to compare because the photos are compressed, but there is no impression that you have forcibly extended it, and the resolution is high.
With this, I thought it would be more beautiful to cut out the ones taken in ultra -high resolution mode without using digital zoom, but unfortunately it wasn't.Of course, it depends on the subject and the shooting environment, so it cannot be said unconditionally, but in a slightly darker place, such as under the bridge, the digital zoom was brighter and the sense of resolution.Reno5 A zoom may be simply excellent.
By the way, regarding macro shooting, it was an impression that it could be taken brightly even when shooting with digital zoom.
I will also compare the shooting with the main camera with the ultra -wide -angle shooting.
Another feature of the camera function is a dual view video that can be used for video shooting.This means that you can shoot at the same time with an out camera and in -camera.The out camera at this time is a main camera fixed with 64 million pixels.
In addition to left and right splits, you can also display a picture impicker on a circular and rectangle.By double tapping the screen, the front and rear cameras can be switched.
Hide notifications during game play
OPPO RENO5 A is equipped with a special application "Game Space" that makes the game operation comfortable.In addition to hiding incoming calls and notifications in the game, you can optimize the touch sampling rate and adjust the performance of CPU and GPU.
When I tried to play the Hara God, which is a heavy class in a smartphone game, the performance mode is about 15 to 30 in the equilibrium mode (default), and the operation is a little concerned about the operation.In the contest mode, the FPS rose to about 30 to 40, and I was able to play as it was.However, it is not suitable for long -term play because of the considerable fever.
The display is compatible with 90Hz, but it is not compatible with video playback and games.They are 60Hz drive.
Excessive expectations are forbidden because they are not gaming, but Snapdragon 765g has 6GB of RAM, so if it is not a very heavy game, it seems that you can play it reasonably.
One affordable one with the function you want
Finally, check the main specifications of Oppo Reno5 A.
Originally, I would like to put the benchmark result, but I could not install a benchmark app because it was a sample machine.It seems that it can be installed in the Y -Mobile version, which was released a little earlier, so it is probably no problem in the product version.
Anyway, it is quite attractive to have a camera that can be taken neatly, Osaifu -Keitai, waterproof and dustproof, and the terminal that can play the game as it is (less than 40,000 yen on Amazon etc.) is quite attractive.If you are not very particular about camera performance or focus on the game environment on your smartphone, this is just right.
Oppo Reno5 A, which has not only the price is low but also has the performance that can be used as a main terminal, seems to be a terminal that will be the hottest terminal this summer.
