Pros and Cons

Here are the Pros and Cons of  OPPO Reno16 F.

ProsCons
Bright 6.57-inch 120Hz AMOLED display with thin bezels.Quite expensive.
50MP main and 50MP telephoto cameras offer strong image quality.Demanding games suffer from frame-rate drops.
Large 7,000mAh battery and 80W fast charging.Battery endurance is only decent despite the large capacity.
IP68, IP69 and IP69K protection provides strong durability.8MP ultra-wide camera is noticeably weaker.
Expandable storage and customizable Snap Key add practical flexibility.Bloatware makes the software experience feel cluttered.

Final Verdict

The OPPO Reno16 F is an efficient mid-range phone that features good screen quality, useful telephoto lens, sturdy construction, and fast charging capabilities. In particular, the 50MP main camera and the 50MP telephoto lenses make a big difference, while the Dimensity 7300-Energy processor works flawlessly on common tasks. But gaming shows the chipset's weaknesses and makes the ultra-wide camera fall behind other components of the device. Price, however, is the key issue in regard to the OPPO Reno16 F, as it puts a hefty dent on the pocket as compared to its previous version and, therefore, becomes harder to buy.
