Oppo has officially unveiled its latest Oppo Reno 14 series, consisting of the standard Reno 14 and the premium Reno 14 Pro. Launched on the 15th of May, 2025, in China, these devices bring significant advancements in camera technology, design, battery, and performance, aiming to set new standards in the mid-range smartphone market. With a focus on style, functionality, and next-gen features, the Reno 14 series is already generating strong buzz among tech enthusiasts and smartphone users alike.
A Sleek Display and Design
The Oppo Reno 14 series continues Oppo’s tradition of stylish aesthetics with a modern touch. Both models feature a flat display design, moving away from the curved screens of previous iterations, allowing for a more ergonomic grip and better compatibility with screen protectors. The device boasts a unibody cold-carved glass back and a sturdy metal frame, enhancing both durability and premium feel.
The standard Reno 14 sports a 6.59-inch LTPS OLED display with a 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate, ensuring smooth visuals for gaming and media consumption. It offers peak brightness of up to 1600 nits and supports HDR content.
The Reno 14 Pro, on the other hand, steps up with a larger 6.83-inch OLED screen, offering the same 120Hz refresh rate and 1.5K resolution but adds AI adaptive refresh rate technology to optimize power usage based on the content displayed. Both displays support ultra-thin in-screen fingerprint sensors for fast and secure unlocking.
Colour options include Reef Black, Mermaid Princess, and Calla Lily Purple. The Mermaid Princess variant particularly stands out with a shimmering fish-scale pattern, made possible through Oppo’s innovative “Flowing Light Phantom” manufacturing process, which creates a radiant finish that catches light from different angles. The phones also feature ultra-slim bezels and a centered punch-hole front camera for a more immersive viewing experience.
Hardware Components: Powerful Performance
Running the entire show is MediaTek’s Dimensity 8350 processor, with RAM and storage configurations that include the variations of 12GB+256GB, 12GB+512GB, 16GB+512GB, and 16GB+1TB. This configuration delivers robust performance for everyday tasks, multitasking, and light gaming.
The Reno 14 Pro debuts the MediaTek Dimensity 8450 chipset (expected to be a rebranded Dimensity 9200+), built on the efficient 4nm process, offering enhanced processing capabilities for high-end gaming and productivity.
Both devices run on Android 15 with Oppo’s ColorOS 15, providing users with the latest features, an intuitive UI, and improved privacy settings. The Reno 14 Pro also introduces a unique “Magic Cube” button, reminiscent of Apple’s Action Button, located on the side of the frame. This customizable key can be programmed for various functions, such as launching the camera, enabling silent mode, or opening favourite apps.
Battery Life and Charging
Battery performance sees a significant boost in the Oppo Reno 14 series. The standard model houses a massive 6000mAh battery, while the Pro variant features a 6200mAh battery. Both support 80W SUPERVOOC wired fast charging, capable of charging the battery to 50% in under 20 minutes.
The Reno 14 Pro additionally supports 50W wireless charging and 10W reverse wireless charging, allowing users to charge other devices like earbuds or smartwatches. Intelligent power management features, such as AI charging optimization and overnight charging protection, further enhance battery longevity and user safety.
Advanced Camera Capabilities
Photography enthusiasts will appreciate the Oppo Reno 14 series’ focus on camera innovation. Both models are equipped with a flagship-grade 50MP periscope telephoto lens offering 3.5x optical zoom and up to 120x digital zoom. This feature is typically reserved for top-tier flagship phones, making its presence in a mid-range model particularly notable. This camera is complemented well by a 50MP main camera and an 8MP ultrawide camera.
The Reno 14 Pro enhances its photography capabilities further with a triple-camera setup, comprising a 50MP Sony IMX890 primary sensor with OIS, an 8MP ultra-wide-angle lens, and the aforementioned 50MP telephoto lens. The selfie camera is a 32MP sensor, capable of AI beautification and 4K video recording.
New camera features include “Live Photos,” which capture a few seconds before and after the shutter is pressed, creating a dynamic still. Additionally, users can convert 4K video clips into animated live photos. The phone also supports multi-style portrait filters, AI scene enhancements, and improved low-light performance with night flash enhancements and ultra-clear HDR technology.
Enhanced Durability and Additional Features
Durability is a key focus for the Oppo Reno 14 series. Both models carry IP66, IP68, and IP69 ratings, offering the highest levels of protection against dust and water ingress, including high-temperature and high-pressure water jets. This makes the devices suitable for various environments, including outdoor use in rain or dusty conditions.
The Reno 14 Pro is tailored for content creators and streamers, featuring a suite of tools designed to enhance live broadcasting. These include triple-microphone noise reduction for clearer audio, advanced electronic image stabilization (EIS) for smoother video, and real-time colour temperature adjustments to ensure accurate and natural colour reproduction in different lighting conditions. The device also features AI face focus, background sound isolation, and integrated beauty filters during live streams.
Additional features include stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos support, an enhanced X-axis linear motor for haptic feedback, and Wi-Fi 7 for faster and more reliable internet connectivity.
