Today we will be reviewing OPPO's latest mid-ranger 5g phone, the Oppo Renault 6 5g OPPO's premium lineup of smartphones under the Renault series, has recently been updated to include the Oppo Renault 6 and the Oppo Renault 6 pro in India. We've already reviewed the latter and were quite impressed by the phone's overall performance and its striking design. The focus for its younger sibling, the Oppo Renault 6, also seems to be heavily surrounding design and performance priced at rupees, 29 990. This mid-ranger offers a gamut of appealing specifications and features looking very impressive on paper, at least with that being said, it's time to put the Oppo Renault 65g through its paces and give you our take on this phone's performance camera battery and more before, starting off with the review make sure you hit the subscribe button. If you haven't already and turn on post notifications to never miss another update from us now, let's get right into it.

The Oppo ran 65g is the first smartphone to sport, the MediaTek density 900 chipsets in India, a new 5g soc for mid-rangers at the heart of the chip. You have two arms: cortex a78 cores clocked at 2.4, gigahertz and 6 arm cortexes a55 cores clocked at 2 gigahertz. As for the graphics, the chipset comes with a Mali g68 GPU. This is paired with 8gb of ram and 128gb of UFS 2.1 storage. The Oppo Renault 6 also boasts of OPPO's ram expansion technology with the support for VRAM or virtual ram up to 5 GB.

Unfortunately, there's no SD card slot on the device, so you cannot expand the storage, the phone houses, a decently sized 4300 my battery. Despite its slim body, the phone supports OPPO's, 65 watt, superfood 2.0 fast charging, as well as for the display, the Oppo Renault 6 houses, a 6.43 inch flat AMOLED panel with full HD plus resolution. The display also comes with 90 hertz refresh rate and 180 hertz touch sampling rate. The display is topped with gorilla glass 5 for protection. You also have an under display optical fingerprint sensor for photos and videos.

The Oppo Renault 6 packs a triple rear camera stack that includes a 64 megapixel primary lens, an 8 megapixel ultra-wide shooter and a 2 megapixel macro camera for selfies. The phone comes with a 32 megapixel selfie camera housed in a punch, hole cut out in the top left corner of the screen. The phone also comes with some interesting features in this department, such as both flare, portrait, video AI, highlight video and others. Moving on to the software, the Oppo Renault 6 runs android 11, based on call OS 11.13 in the box. You get a 65 watt, fast charger, as well as an USB pair of earphones.

OPPO has established its design prowess with the Oppo Renault 6. That not only looks but also feels premium. It features OPPO's patented Renault glow design. That is a fruit of the company's unique etching technology. The rear panel has a smooth matte finish with an iridescent glue that changes color as light falls on it.

The phone is available in aurora and stellar black colors. We got the firmware for review, which looks absolutely breathtaking. The panel is also fingerprint resistant, which ups, the overall appeal of the phone, the back, also houses. The camera stack that protrudes slightly and has the word 64 mp, AI camera, etched on it. In contrast to the pro variant of the device that features rounded edges, the Oppo Renault 6 has a flat edge design that is reminiscent of the iPhone 12 series design.

Now this design choice can be polarizing to some. The phone didn't feel as ergonomic to hold to us, as ones with a more rounded back. However, not everyone will feel the same way. Additionally, the Oppo Renault 6 is also super lightweight, weighing merely 182 grams and sports, a thickness of 7.59 mm, making it extremely sleek and attractive. The back panel, however, is slightly slippery to hold, and we were more confident using the phone with the provided silicone case, the Oppo Renault 6 sports, the USB-C charging port, a single speaker and a sim tray at the bottom of the device on the right.

You have a solitary power button and the left side has the volume rockers the buttons are tactile and are located in easy to press locations. The phone also features an under display optical fingerprint sensor. The sensor is moderately speedy and pretty accurate. However, face unlock works considerably faster on this phone. The Oppo Renault 6 does miss out on dual stereo speakers, which is pretty disappointing at this price, saying that budget phones such as the Poco m3, have incorporated it.

Moving on to the display the Oppo Renault 6 comes packing a 6.43 inch AMOLED display with full HD plus resolution and 90 hertz refresh rate support. The fast refresh rate support ensures smooth scrolling and flicking between apps users have the option to toggle down the refresh rate to 60 hertz. Unfortunately, there's no adaptive refresh rate support, which is slightly disappointing at this price, since phones that are much more inexpensive, have incorporated this nifty feature. The panel also has a punch hole cut out for the selfie camera on the top left hand, side of the screen, the display is plenty bright to use indoors or outdoors, even in harsh sunlight. We recorded a max brightness of 620 nits on the screen.

It feels premium and has pretty decent color accuracy as well. The screen also offers good viewing angles and vibrant colors. Additionally, there's minimal bezel action going on, except for the slightly larger chin bezel, while Oppo flagships usually tend to lag behind some of its most fierce competitors. When it comes to performance, the Oppo Renault 6 has managed to catch up some ground, allowing it to become a real competitor in the performance race for mid-rangers the phone, as we mentioned before, houses the new MediaTek density, 900 soc and pairs it with 8gb ram and 128gb storage. The chipset comes with her high speed rail mode for gaming that will search and connect to the lowest latency cell tower to minimize ping.

We ran our usual slew of benchmarks to gauge the performance of the device and the results were mediocre in an tutu, the Oppo Renault 6 code, slightly lower than the snapdragon 768g powered IQ, z35g and considerably lower than the realm x7 pro in geek bench 5, the Oppo Renault 6 code, 712 in the single core test and 213 in the multi-core test. It beat both the IQ z35g and the OnePlus notch CE. In these tests, however, the realm x7 pro still managed to defeat it by a slight margin in PC mark work, the phones code, the lowest out of the lot, with a score of 8474. Moving on to GPU performance, the phone scored a respectable 2018 in 3dmark wildlife, but it lagged behind the realm x7 pro here as well. We tried to test the phone's gaming performance using game bench, but for some reason, game bench refused to work on this device.

Synthetic benchmarks aside, the Oppo Renault 6 performs admirably well. For the most part, you will have no problem whatsoever accomplishing day-to-day tasks such as calling texting, browsing the web and social media thanks to the 8 GB of ram plus the expandable VRAM. The phone is excellent at multitasking as well and is able to keep several apps running without any hitches. The 90 hertz, refresh rate, also makes scrolling and flicking between screens appear smooth. As for gaming, we played Call of Duty mobile and asphalt 9 legends to test the phone's gaming chops.

The phone performs adequately well when running, with smooth graphics and frame rates. There were occasional hiccups of frame drops during longer gaming sessions due to thermal throttling, but nothing that's the dealbreaker for the most part, the Oppo Renault 6 provides a premium performance experience despite being priced under 30k. As for software, the phone runs android 11 on top of color OS 11.13, while color OS provides plenty of customization options and has a decent look. It is loaded with bloatware in the form of third-party apps. Some Oppo apps on the phone cannot even be uninstalled, so it is not the most clean experience that you can get on.

A smartphone Oppo has the reputation of putting in a lot of extra effort for its phone's cameras and the Oppo Renault 6 is a good example of that: the phone houses, a 64 mp primary lens and 8mp ultrawide shooter and a 2mp macro sensor. It skips out on the 2mp mono lens that is present on the pro variant of this device, but this is not a huge miss. The primary 64 mp lens turns out detailed and vibrant shots in the daylight, with good, colors and acceptable dynamic range in low light scenarios. This lens produces decent shots, although they are sometimes plagued with a fair amount of noise and lackluster colors. Thankfully, the phone's night mode more than makes up for this fault by churning out good low light images with plenty of light, very little noise and good detail.

The phone still takes a long time to focus on subjects in low light, though, on to the ultra-wide lens, the phone captures pretty decent pictures in daylight with good color. However, the dynamic range is lacking a bit on this lens. There's very little lens distortion on this 8mp lens, though, which is good. The 2mp macro lens shoots, mediocre shots with decent color, but the detail is often lacking, and the subject isn't always in focus. The phone also brings along with it some fascinating.

Video features such as OPPO's both flair, video mode that adds cinematic effects in portrait videos. You also have something called AI color portrait mode that makes subjects pop in portrait videos. These options will be appreciated by those who want an elevated videography experience on their device for normal videography. The phone allows users to shoot, 4k videos at 30, fps. There's no stabilization, so the videos will suffer from some shake electronic stabilization kicks in at 1080p.

Recording the phone's 32mp selfie. Camera offers good detail and colors in most scenarios and even has pretty decent low. Light performance, however, ensure to turn off the beauty filters when clicking selfies. If you prefer a natural look, the beauty filters, although the facial features of people aggressively and are turned on by default, the opponent 6 houses a moderately powerful 4 300 my battery with support for 65 watt fast charging, while the phone's battery won't compete with the power champs that support large 5000 or 6000 my batteries. It is enough to power, through most users through a day of usage.

If you are a power user, though, who consumes a lot of content on YouTube and out platforms and play a lot of intensive mobile games expect to seek out the charger in the evening or night after charging the device to full in the morning in our battery test, the phone lost five percent of battery when playing Call of Duty mobile for 15 minutes and lost seven percent battery when streaming content on Netflix for half an hour despite the phone's, slightly lackluster battery capacity, OPPO's 65 watt fast charging ensures that you can charge the device back up to full in a jiffy in our test. The phone's out of the box, 65 watt charger powered the device back up to full in merely 36 minutes from zero. The Oppo Renault six stands tall amidst its competition due to a stellar, eye-catching design and good overall performance. While there are plenty of appealing options in this mid-range category of smartphones, the Oppo Renault 6 offers a good blend of looks and performance. If you wish to own a phone that stands out of the crowd under 30k, the Oppo Renault 6 becomes a very obvious recommendation.

Since it not only looks good but also has impressive performance, good cameras and a decent battery with speedy 65 watt fast charging support with that being said, we're done with the review, and thank you so much for watching you.
