Midrange

EDITORIAL: Every 6 months Oppo delivers an improved version of its Reno and Reno Pro midranges. The Reno 14 is a small upgrade of an excellent and very affordable 13. It keeps the same build and size, processor, IP and selfie but replaces dooky 2MP depth sensor with a proper telephoto camera and makes the battery slightly bigger.

PROs
aluminum frame glass back body, good performance from Mediatec 8350 with UFS3.1, >30 endurance from a 6000mAh battery with 80W charging (no wireless), great 460ppi HDR10+ AMOLED, IP69 protection (down to 2m for 30min), reliable images from a 50MP main + 50MP tele (both OIS PDAF) + not so great 8MP AF ultrawide, good 50MP AF selfie
CONs
a very incremental upgrade, should have better endurance from a big battery, sub-1300nits screen brightness, ultrawide is just okay and so are videos, the SDmemory had been removed since Reno 13, poor OS update policy, no desktop replacement, no video out from a slow USB-C2.0 port
