what's going on guys long hear from Andrew Authority and today I wanted to give you guys some thoughts on the Oppo Reno 10x zoom edition and with the hole 10x zoom moniker the main highlight of this phone is obviously the cameras so that's where we're gonna start it's got a triple camera setup that's similar to the Huawei P 30 Pro and I would say this is probably a pretty solid contender to the p30 Pro at least in terms of the camera the main camera is the 48 megapixel Sony IMX that's being used in a lot of other smartphones like the oneplus 7 pro honor 20 pro zenfone 6 a bunch of smartphones are using the sensor because it's a great sensor it's being paired with a wide-angle camera and a 13 megapixel telephoto camera the telephoto camera is very similar in construction to the one found on the p30 pro it's a sensor that is stacked sideways and uses a prism to refract light into the sensor one thing that I thought was kind of strange with this lens is that the optical zoom happens at 5x but the camera app doesn't give you a 5x preset zoom option instead your options on the telephoto lens are 6 X + 10 X which are both hybrid zooms if you want to take shots at 5x you have to dial it in manually you also have the ability to zoom all the way up to 60 X but anything beyond 10x is purely digital at that point and I don't think you will really ever end up using this all that often because the image quality at such a high magnification isn't great and it's actually really hard to frame stuff at such a deep zoom image quality in general though is really good colors aren't too overly saturated or vibrant dynamic range is pretty solid and there is tons and tons of detail the 6 X zoom photos are still tack sharp and crisp and even a 10x zoom there's still plenty of detail you do notice a slight amount of degradation but it's really not that bad at all it's really impressive how far something can be and you're still able to capture a clearer picture of it even a sign that's like several blocks down the opposite end of a street it's still easily readable with this camera low-light is also pretty good with this camera especially if you use the ultra night mode this uses a combination of a HDR and multi-frame noise-reduction to produce an image that's brighter with wider dynamic range it's pretty easy to spot the difference the images are noticeably brighter with night mode on and you get significantly more detail in highlights and shadows it also only takes a couple of seconds to capture a night mode photo so it's definitely worth using anytime you get the chance the best part about this camera is really just the versatility there's a lot that you can do with such a wide focal range and this camera just makes it that much easier to get the perfect shot regardless of how far or close you are to the subject we all know that it takes more than just a good camera to make a good phone but it's pretty safe to say that the Oppo Reno 10x zoom performs well in other areas too it's got the latest Snapdragon a 55 with plenty of RAM so there's no problems with performance here it's very fast and responsive and it's a pretty solid device for gaming purposes - battery life is also really good I can get through two full days on a single charge with around 50% left going into the second day I'd show you screen on time numbers but color OS for some reason doesn't make that easy so these screen grabs of my app usage are the best that I can do the phone also has a big bright beautiful OLED panel with no notch or hole punch and this is achieved in two ways one it's using a pop-up selfie camera but it's a little different than your average pop-up camera this has been dubbed the shark fin pop-up because of its shape and aside from just looking different it does have some practicality to it because it's a little bigger than most other camera pop ups it's got extra room to house an earpiece a front-facing flash and a rear-facing flash the camera inside the pop-up is a 16 megapixel camera and it's pretty good for selfies I like it a lot better than other selfie cameras simply because it doesn't over soften your skin and skin tones are also pretty natural the second thing that Oppo has done to achieve a screen with no notch or hole punch is by using an in display fingerprint sensor it started off pretty rough for this technology but I think it's gotten much better on more recent devices the one on the reno feels extremely quick and also very reliable nine times out of ten at box on the first attempt and I would say this one is every bit as good as a conventional fingerprint sensor now every phone has its flaws and the Opel Reno is no different it doesn't have a headphone jack just in case you're wondering it also doesn't have wireless charging and because it has a mechanical moving part it's also not IP rated against water and dust if any of those features are deal-breakers you're better off exploring other options like the Galaxy S 10 or LG G 8 if those features don't matter and you really like cameras the Oppo Reno 10x zoom is a really solid choice it's available in select regions like China Europe and India don't expect it to come to the US though because Opel phones usually never do anyways that's pretty much gonna do it for this review guys let us know your thoughts down in the comment section below and as always if you enjoyed this video give it a thumbs up we definitely appreciate it and I will talk to you guys in the next video
