The mid -range phones are doing things not only very wellbut they are making it very difficult for the high range to be innovative. That makes the only thing that differentiates them (logically), is the price of the processor or the cameras, but in regards to batteries, design and many benefits, the battle is very complex. And that is precisely what happens with the new OPPO Reno 13 Pro 5g we talked about during its presentation.
Available in graphite gray and mist fog from 800 eurosit shows that Oppo has paid special attention to its design. In fact, it is the first time that the company uses a aerospace aluminum frame, which is a significant improvement with respect to its predecessors.
To this we must add A single -piece sculpted glass panel That, mainly in the Lavander color model, generates very striking patterns. The disadvantage is that the surface is something slippery and it is convenient to put a cover, which dazzles these patterns.
The front panel also includes a microcurvated screen (AMOLED of 6.83 inches). The interesting thing, for this range, is that CIt has the IP69 certification, something rare in this price segment. This means that the device under water can be easily immersed at a depth of 2 meters for up to 30 minutes. Which is logical taking into account the advances in photography that this model brings and in which we will submerge later.
The screen has A very good resolution (reaches 1.5k), although by default it comes with a full HD resolution that can be changed in adjustments. You also have three different color modes to customize the screen to taste: natural, pro and vivid with which it is worth playing to see which of them it suits us depending on what we are doing.
Has a 120 Hz screen update frequency and SGS certificate and perfect ocular protection, which, according to the brand, offers comfortable visualization for long sessions. Of course, it does not behave too well in very bright environments due to its 1200 maximum brightness nits. In the positive section, if you are out, the volume is very good, of the highest we have tried.
For the processor, Oppo has opted for a MediaTak Dimensity 8350 accompanied by a memory of up to 12 GB and a storage capacity of 512 GB. What does this mean? It is very difficult for “pulls” and delays even when we are in multitasking mode. Or when we use the IA options it offers. And there are several.
OPPO RENO 13 PRO 5G INCLUDES FUNCIONS OF IA for productivity as a summary of AI (synthesizes texts), writing of AI (translates and puts subtitles on the screen), speaks of ia, recording of ia … to this adds to this Functions of AI for the camera, such as eliminating reflexes, people or objects, improvements in the approach… All these work very well, but they do it in the cloud, so we need a good Internet connection for it.
But there is more. Oppo has also incorporated new functions to Ai Studio, which now includes functions such as Portrait AI, Reimagen AI and AI movement. Remarkable is the option Reimagen ai, which converts a normal photo into a work of art. AI movement adds movement to fixed images. But one of the best is the File Dock function: it allows to drag and release elements from one application to another, access different applications and use functions of the others.
In the battery section, Oppo has taken a leap with respect to the previous generation, moving from the 5000 mah of reindeer 12 pro to the current 5800 mAh. Good news: The 80 W charger is included. The set operates very well and guarantees us a full day without loading and, in extreme cases, goes from 0 to 35 % in 15 minutes and reaches 100 % in 50 minutes.
Let’s go with the cameras. Three rear, two of 50 MP and an ultra -angular lens of 8 MP. The front repeats with a 50 MP sensor. The best thing is the teleobjective and the management of the light that it has in the daytime photos. In both portraits and landscapes it does very well.
The 3.5X zoom helps capture distant objects without moving them to get perfect photos. However (not everything can be perfect), The wide angle is a little behind, mainly by comparison. Night photos? Approved, without highlighting. The selfie brings very good news … whenever it is not used in night conditions. Perhaps an update can give this section more of “spark” in both cameras.
But the best comes with the new Underwater mode Thanks to its IP classification, it allows you to take photos under water And, thanks to its configuration, this is very simple. When activating this mode, the volume controls are assigned to take photos and videos, while when holding the ignition button, the model is turned off for a few seconds to expel the water. And the images and videos are very good.
Verdict
Oppo reindeer 13 pro 5g jumps with respect to the previous model, takes advantage (and very good) of the AI, the camera deserves an 8 and the battery is above. The design stands out … If someone wants to compete with this model, they will only be high -end phones last year.
