Our Oppo Reno7 5G/Find X5 Lite video review is out

2022-06-19

Depending on where you live, this phone may be called the Oppo Reno7 5G or the Oppp Find X5 Lite. Either way, it bucks current trends and adds a microSD slot and a 3.5mm jack to the spec sheet of its predecessor – this is a proven way to curry favor with fans. Our video review covers these and other upgrades and how the phone compares to other mid-rangers:

As Will explains, the Reno7 5G comes about half a year after the Reno6 5G so it is a relatively mild upgrade. In addition to the above, Oppo enabled HDR10+ on the 90Hz AMOLED display and doubled the base storage to 256GB. And while those are nice improvements, we wish Oppo pre-installed a newer release of ColorOS, this one is based on Android 11. Some water resistance would have been nice too.
