We are at a point where there is no need to wait to see new mobile phones: there are constantly launches. And Oppo usually reserves its new Renos for the summer, when it is the best time to take advantage of huge batteries and cameras. The Chinese company has already given almost all the details of the Oppo Reno16 Proits new flagship to fight against rivals like the Xiaomi 17T Pro and we will tell you about them below.
And if we say “almost all the details” it is because, precisely, some of the most important ones have been saved: date and price.

Design and screen
Oppo is not looking to reinvent the wheel with the Reno16 Pro. The design is very similar to the two they launched last year: the Reno14 and Reno15 Pro. Straight lines for the sides, a flat screen when Oppo had continued betting on curves until not so long ago and a camera module very inspired by that of the iPhone Pro.


The front is the usual one that we are seeing with a screen that makes good use of the space and that remains at a moderate size (for what we are seeing in other segments) 6.32 inches.
The company itself states that it is highly optimized to make it a comfortable experience for one hand and, as I say, it is appreciated in times when 6.7 inches seem like the law.
The resolution is 2,640 x 1,216 pixelsproviding a density of 460 dpi and the refresh rate is up to 144 Hz. The peak brightness is 3,600 nits with a high brightness mode of 1,800 nits.

That screen is a magnetic accessory that can be very useful for Vlogs, for example. It’s called ‘Oppo Bubble’
To finish the design, it has IP69K certification and on the back we have some MagSafe-style magnets with which we can place accessories.
‘Super’ interior
IF we go inside, the heart is the MediaTek Dimensity 8550 Super accompanied by 12 GB of LPDDR5X RAM. This SoC has been co-developed between MediaTek and Oppo itself in a deal similar to that which Qualcomm and Samsung have to develop the Snapdragon of the Galaxy S Ultra.


Without looking at performance, what the company says is that they have managed to improve energy efficiency, making it consume 20% less. About that, The battery has 6,000 mAh and has 80W SuperVOOC fast charging.
Oppo has traditionally been one of the companies that has been most effortful in guaranteeing the durability of its batteries and fast charging systems and point out that it is designed to offer six years without degradation.
As for the software, it comes with Android 16 and ColorOS 16 and is packed with AI features that we will detail in the review.
Cameras of the Oppo Reno 16Pro as a strong point
Following a strategy called ‘Trendig Pro Camera’the Oppo Reno16 Pro has a three-camera system made up of uSamsung main 200 megapixel with a size of 1/1.56 inches and f/1.8 aperture, a telephoto camera equivalent to an 80 mm (equivalent to a 3.5x) with a sensor also manufactured by Samsung and with 50 megapixels, oIS.y aperture f/2.8 and a 50 megapixel wide angle with a 1/2.88-inch sensor.


On the front we have a Samsung JN5 sensor, also 50 megapixels with a size of 1/2.75 inches and f/2.0 aperture. The combination of cameras is interesting because a 3.5x 50 megapixel telephoto lens can be taken up to a 7x hybrid that can give a lot of play, and that main sensor has a good size both for capturing light and for blurring the background naturally.
Now, as I said, Oppo has not given an official price or a confirmed launch date, although having already released the characteristics of the European model (the Chinese one differs by having a little more battery), it should not take long.
Either way, we will offer all the details of the global Oppo Reno 16Pro in our analysis.
